==== Ethiopia ==== Mother's Day is celebrated for three days in [[Ethiopia]], after the end of the rainy season. It comes in mid-fall where people enjoy a three-day feast called "Antrosht".<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.history.com/topics/holidays/mothers-day|title=Mother's Day β Holidays |website=History.com|date=29 April 2011 |access-date=13 April 2016}}</ref> For the feast, ingredients will be brought by the children for a traditional hash recipe. The ingredients are divided along genders, with girls bringing spices, vegetables, cheese and butter, while the boys bring a lamb or bull. The mother hands out the hash to the family.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://huffingtonpost.com/alemayehu-g-mariam/ethiopia-happy-mothers-da_b_569185.html|title=Happy Mother's Day Birtukan!|website=HuffPost|date=17 May 2010|access-date=13 April 2016}}</ref> A celebration takes place after the meal.
