Celebrating Persian New Year … Amy Brathwaite

One of my favourite things about returning to Canada has been reconnecting with old friends … and even better when through old friends, even older friends resurface. Thankfully through the expansiveness of social media, we found each other again. So when I was asked to come and be apart of celebrating Persian New Year together, it was an easy yes. I love the idea that it coincides with the arrival of spring … somehow seems better suited for a new year. Replenishment, renewal and celebrating life. Thank you for the warmth, the welcome, the laughter … and the hard-to-resist baklava.
