Easter bread
A sweet, decorated loaf for a feast day — a piece of bread baked to mark a return.
Easter bread in a dream is the dream's image of an ordinary loaf raised to the status of a sign. The bread is sweeter and more decorated than the daily loaf; the work in the kitchen marks that this is not an ordinary day. The dream brings the easter bread when something in your life — a recovery, an annual return, a household reconciliation — is being marked by food made specifically for the marking. A loaf blessed and broken at the table is the dream affirming that the return is being honoured. A loaf baked but never brought to the table is the dream noting that the work of marking was done in the kitchen and the gathering it was made for did not, in the end, happen.
