faspa
A Low German (Plautdietsch) word still used by Mennonites to refer to a light lunch after church, with friends and family members present. The meal will almost always be composed of buns (or the traditional zwieback, which are basically rich buns that kind of look like boobs or matryoshka dolls) and a variety of cheeses, cold cuts, pickles and jams. Everything is cold because there isn't time after church to prepare a hot meal. The kids will stuff their faces and pockets with food, then run outside to play games, while the adults will stand around the table and talk about the sermon for a minute before the conversation devolves into joking around and making fun of Grandpa Abe for his explosive farting.
