Merry Christmas to you, dear!

[Жар-птица]

As it was in Russia. Day-kutyu (boiled wheat or barley, seasoned. Honey and butter), and after midnight, all meals, except the soup, cold, so the hostess did not get up from the table in the kitchen. All meals - without the sour cream, milk and meat. Salads, jelly, salad, smoked and salted fish, caviar and herring. After the appetizers, soup or vegetable soup, soup (or fish, or mushrooms). For soup - patty with mushrooms and cabbage. And after they suffered dessert: apples, nuts, compote of dried fruits, cakes, Honey cake, poppy seed strudel or cranberry jelly. And there was no champagne, vodka, especially after the first star is also impossible. Fasting is not over!
    And now, I think at Christmas in Russia, to eat everything.)
