| The celebration of winter solstice on the evening of the autumnal equinox is growing in popularity every year. Solstice commemorates the shortest day of the year and rejoices in the coming of spring. As a result, foods that include seeds are popular at solstice celebrations since seeds represent new beginnings. |
