Tomorrow is the feast of Saint Anthony, Abbot. This evening is a time to try a love charm.
For this you will need a door that leads to the street (for most of you, that would be the front door.) Stand with your back to the door, a sufficient distance away. Take a slipper in your right hand and throw it over your right shoulder. Hopefully, you will not hit anything expensive, like your mother's heirloom vahz. Now, mark how the slipper lies: if the toes point toward the door, it is a sign that you will be married before another year has passed.
If not, not. And better luck next time.
[Explain to your mother why you are throwing your slippers at the front door, instead of leaving them decently parked under your bed.]
