Now we've a week of "tasty" holidays called Maslenitsa.
Maslenitsa is an ancient pagan holiday. It is believed that Maslenitsa was originally associated with the day of the spring solstice, but with the adoption of Christianity it began to precede Lent and depend on its timing. In Rus', it has long been customary to celebrate the change of seasons.
Our ancestors ate a lot of pancakes this week, burn a straw effigy, dance and dance in circles, glorify the Red Spring so that it can win the battle with winter as quickly as possible.
Centuries have passed, but people do not forget about Maslenitsa and celebrate it though not so much like itn was before.
Most people keep traditions and celebrate this week making.....pancakes!;)
This Slavic holiday has symbolized the beginning of spring since pagan times. People believed that beautiful and tasty pancakes would help appease the sun, which would warm the earth and give a rich harvest.

It was believed that the more pancakes the housewife bakes, the richer the whole year will be.
So it's a pancake week now.
This time I decided to make not a traditional recipe but a new one.
- some pumpkin
- a banana
- a plant milk
- whole-wheat flour
- 0,5 tb.sp. baking soda + some drops of lemon juice
proportion is near 1:1 (flour to milk)
A sweet and tasty vegan pancakes were great!
We can add some jam or honey - mmmm, my son's favourite dessert to tea;)
Hello,@taliakerch it is good to attend events and celebrations. It is wonderful for people to meet and exchange congratulations and be more happy with each other
There seems to be something strange? Because today we will eat sweet pies
Today, my son and I went shopping in the morning and bought pie dough so we could eat it in the evening after fasting.
But we make nut pies. The pies contain almonds, peanuts, and raisins, then we cook them in oil, then we add sugar sherbet to them and add sesame to them.
I hope you enjoyed this celebration
wow nut pies?? here we use nuts only dor decorations, small amount, combination of nuts with dough is unusual for me, it's really tasty and nutritious, but rather heavy for digestion, no?
