Do you like to bake cookies?
Chocolate chip? Oatmeal raisin? Snickerdoodles?
In Portugal they’ll do you one better.

Or worse depending on your point of view.

Nothing says festive like rows of penis garland.

Edible penis prayers? If that doesn’t get you to church nothing will.

Because when you think of Christianity… aren’t phalluses the first thing that comes to mind?

Ah, Portugal. Clinging to their John Thomases for centuries.

Can you imagine all the gingerbread men they had to neuter to get those?

You know how you leaen something and almost immediately run across other references to it somewhere else? This is actually a DOUBLE for me, because just yesterday I (1.) Saw it mentioned on a YouTube video about WW2 that Portugal had a dictatorship (Everyone knows of Franco in Spain, but Portugal?) and (2.) Read in one of my bathroom readers that the rabbit and egg traditions for Easter began out of Christianity converting an old Pagan observance for fertility. (Rabbits = breeding, eggs, well….) This is so cool!
Oh, and yeah, that means Easter could have very well ended up symbolized by the penis rather than a bunny. Just think about that!

There is a town in Japan that has a yearly “Penis Festival.” Another blogger posted about it a few years ago. It was very colourful, and included penis statues and penis masks and various penis shaped foods. Towns like this one and the one in Japan probably have less mental health problems than others where hiding sex is the order of the day. (Hopefully somewhere vaginas are equally celebrated, just to keep things fair!)
Cnristians have too many hangups about sex. Everyone does it, but know one wants to admit it. Why not celebrate sex? It’s as common as breathing!

We’ll be in Portugal in about a year, but alas, only as far north as Porto. I’ll look for them there since it appears to be only 45 miles from Amarante. (So that’s 2 homework assignments: wombats in Australia and now this. 🙂 )
