Explanation Prédoy [Bulg.], a custom of measuring the milk at the beginning of the milking season. This is a reproduction of the custom at the folklore festival "Rozhen" ’81.

A housewife is giving out ritual food (yoghurt - kíselo mlyáko, ugúrt [Bulg.]; pastry – bánitsa [Bulg.]; fresh/unripe cheese – pryásno sírene [Bulg.]).
