Croatian cuisine
The first card sent by Valentina from Croatia.
The second one represents Zagreb in the form of a licitar.
"Licitars are colorfully decorated biscuits made of sweet honey/gingerbread dough that are part of Croatia's cultural heritage and a traditional symbol of Zagreb. They are used as an ornamental gift often given at celebrations of love such as weddings, St. Valentine's Day, birthdays. At Christmas time Zagreb is adorned with thousands of licitar hearts; the Christmas tree in the main square is festooned with thousands of licitar hearts." Wikipedia
A very beautiful and interesting tradition.
