    My wife's Portuguese neighbor used to make her an Easter challah bread in the form of a baby doll (Boiled egg in shell for the face.).
    She told her about the first Easter after WW2 rationing ended, which continued for much longer in parts of western Europe after the armistice than it did in other places, and how the little girls held on to their Easter dolls for that much longer that year, afraid that kind of good food would disappear again.
