Paleo Faliro: Clean Monday (The First Day of Lent)

On Monday 6th March we didn't have school because it was Clean Monday. Clean Monday is the first day of Lent.
On this day we eat shrimps, mussels, oktapus, kalamari fruit and vegetables and a special kind of flat bread made out without yeast, called Lagana.
Tradition says that on this day the housewives started the spring cleaning of their houses in order to be clean for Easter so they didn't have time to make the regular bread they were doing the rest of the year.
We also fly kites on this day.
