Funny thing - I don't eat pork, and I remember deciding that after watching a jewish kids show on SBS or something. They were singing some song about the foods they eat and I remember thinking eeeew, I'm not gonna eat it either! It was only a couple of years ago....

Easter- Eostre is a pagan fertitlity goddess, and there are rituals/celebrations for rebirth and fertility of the earth. This was merged and became Easter which coincided with the resurrection story of Christ.
If you celebrated Eostre it would be at Spring time.
