Pre-Weather Channel

People around here stick these things on their doors in the summertime.  Nowadays I think it's just for decoration but apparently the leaves close around the center when it's about to rain.

On the first Sunday in May everybody bakes bread in the shape of a cross and has it blessed. They don't eat it though, they keep it around all year round to protect their houses from being struck by lightning.
