Happy Sizdeh Bedar!! It's the last day of Norooz celebrations so make sure you spend it outdoors and with loved ones! "After 13 days of celebrations, Sizdeh Bedar is celebrated, which literally means “getting rid of the thirteenth.” Families throw green sprouts into rivers or lakes to symbolize the plant’s return to nature and conclude the festivities until the next year. We also tie a knot in grass and make a wish and prayer for the new year!" http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/norooz-2016-dates-traditions-and-history-of-the-persian-new-year_us_56f032fce4b09bf44a9df896
