MARTIN&#8217;S DAY?<\/h4>\n<p>On or around November 11th, the Portuguese gather around bonfires and fireplaces to drink, talk, laugh, eat chestnuts, and celebrate the bountiful harvest and coming of winter.\u00a0These celebrations are called <em>Magusto\u00a0<\/em>(believed to come from the Latin <em>magnus ustus<\/em> or \u201cgreat fire\u201d), and traditions vary around the country.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>According to the Portuguese, legend has it that on one cold day Martin was riding his horse when he came across a beggar. The man was sorely underdressed and shivering in the cold as he called out to Martin for alms. Martin had nothing to give him, so he drew his sword and cut his cloak in half to give the beggar something to keep warm. At that very moment, the clouds parted, and the sun shone for 3 days.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is believed the miraculous change in weather was due to Martin\u2019s act of charity, and the warm, clear days often seen in early November have become known in Portugal as &#8216;St. Martin\u2019s Summer&#8217;.\u00a0At about the same time, the chestnuts begin to ripen and the first of the year\u2019s wine is ready to sample, as well as other alchoholic beverages made from the semi-processed grapes, such as\u00a0<em>agua-p\u00e9<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>jeropiga<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>As we say in Portugal: <em>\u00c9 dia de S\u00e3o Martinho.
