The day normally begins with a family breakfast of nuts ([[Tarvu]] loved nuts), eggs (at least 2 must be eaten by each member) and milk that has been flavoured with raisins, known as Raisin Milk or '[[Rantini]]'. The reason why is that [[Tarvu]] had his own vineyard, and he would give beggars and paupers handfuls of grapes whenever they passed. As Tarvu's Day is a day of giving and love, the significance of raisins (i.e dried grapes) becomes clear. The reason, however, as to why milk has been added, is less clear. It is believed to be added some time in the 18th century, and has since stuck. | The day normally begins with a family breakfast of peanuts ([[Tarvu]] loved peanuts but detested nuts; he was able to get away with this because peanuts are actually legumes), eggs (at least 2 must be eaten by each member) and milk that has been flavoured with raisins, known as Raisin Milk or '[[Rantini]]'.
