The Tradition of Salty Cookies
On February 15, the Armenian Apostolic Church celebrates St. Sargis Day – the day of love and dreams. On this day, unmarried young people eat salty cookies to see their future partner in a dream—bringing them water. According to tradition, the cookies should be prepared by the happiest person, someone who has experienced great love or is in love.
Happy St. Sargis Day!
