*Marsha,*

*I think the word you're looking for is rosquilha which is defined as
"cake" but was a ring shaped loaf of "massa sovada" which we called "sweet
bread" or pao de ovo (literally "egg bread"). My reference is the Alvaro
Franco DICCIONARIO Ingles-Portugues Portgues-Ingles, Published 1939, Porto
Alegre, Brasil. My mother, born on Flores, Azores would knead the dough *

*and on a greased baking sheet and would fashion a ring shaped loaf around
an inverted bowel, cover it with a blanket next to a heater (this was
usually done in the winter) and allow it to rise before putting it in the
oven. The bowel was removed before baking.*

Happy Easter and Feliz Pascoa to all!

If you would like to send your Easter greetings, hit reply and respond to this 
thread ONLY. Do NOT start your own Easter thread. 

You may send your Easter greetings on Saturday and Sunday. If it's Monday in 
your time zone, you are too late. The Easter greeting thread will be done by 
then.

Thanks, Cheri

Thank you so much for this, Cheri. It puts it all into perspective and
reminds me not to get so annoyed that the recent estimates from FTDNA

Celeste,
I did my Portuguese bakery purchase yesterday at the Hanford bakery. Two small 
loaves for people I'm staying at their homes and a loaf for my mother. A few 
pastries for the road. Since they are small they have the Jordan almonds on 
top. Car got broken into last night in Stockton. They didn't take my bread. 
Took my clothes and more ripped up my dash but not my bread. 
Blessings to all.
