Nuts
If you are female, have children and have a younger female relative about to be married perhaps you might want to consider taking a bag of hazelnuts to the wedding and presenting it to the bride before she leaves the church, she will be similarly blessed with good fortune so the tradition goes. Today rice has replaced this tradition. If there is a large crop of nuts in your area you can expect an increase in the number of births. To find a nut with two kernels was thought to be lucky: if one of the nuts is eaten and the other is thrown over the left shoulder at the same time as making a wish it should, according to folklore, be granted.
