Galina Iv., Checkmark, thank you so much for the wonderful poems.

[Valentine]

Lina, the mushrooms there in your photo are very good. Remained? (holding out a plate)

Valentine, Valya, another half-tank of pickled mushrooms! Help yourself please!

I’m alive, I’m alive for a long time, we met your New Year, called my mother, went to bed at four o'clock (I remind you about 3 o'clock), at 7 I sent my husband for the procedure, took the dog for a walk, baked bread, then made okroshka, and all of you still sleep. Overpowered half a glass of martini for a whole new. year, and for the old, and for the new. Who drank for me?
Well, with the come all of you!

Lina, Linochka, I take off my hat there are women in Russia

Lenochka Kadieva, I had homemade wine on NG (my friend gave it), so I raised a toast for all our tea-makers, and for you, incl.

I say it's flint, but you still don't believe me

there is no one ... sleeping or something

Imagine, Galochka, how everyone has bitten, if they still cannot come to the computer! You and I alone are clever, hostesses ... I read your poems to my husband, he smiled, I say "you see how many people are worried about you, you just have no right to disappoint so many people." Thank you, you are my dear poet!

Luda, just today I watched the videos, thank you for them tremendous, when I saw blooming willow tea, as if I was in my forest clearing, I even felt the smell, the sun, no longer hot, the wasps are buzzing, the smell of pine needles, autumn leaves and a thin, intoxicating, gentle the aroma of the blooming, last Ivan-tea ...
And I was interested in the preparation of Koporsky Ivan-tea, but I immediately killed the collection of raw materials, breaking the stems completely (we collect it carefully, without breaking it), fermentation is interesting, just in a bucket, and completely closed, and the second one is just under a towel, it seems to me everything not right, too? Although any version has the right to life. But interestingly, I remembered summer and autumn, my soul felt good, I’ll go and brew Ivanushka, in the morning I was rustic. Ayuuuu, sleepy workers, where are you? I will put absenteeism for everyone, you cannot start new. a year off absenteeism! With love to you, I am.

HERE-HERE I- eat coffee with gingerbread toys! Others are easy to control, but at least tie your hands behind. How strange the glaze accentuates the caramel flavor of the cookies!

Happy New Year! With new happiness!
I love the New Year - you can eat boutiques with caviar with Napoleon! Happy Bonaparte, as we have immortalized him! And the Grilyazh sweets are the first to disappear from the tree - I went hunting!
Helen, what truancy? What are you? We honestly ate everything and drank, without cheating. Lose we indulge in tea!

Girls, hello! How are you resting? Not tired of relaxing?
Checkmark, I hope you have some time during this New Year's holidays to improve your baking skills? If so, give me your hand and let's go HERE Sanadorina loaves bake. The recipe is very easy, you will practice on holidays, during working hours you will bake, playfully ... Bread is very convenient, just for those who work. In the morning I put the dough (2 minutes of time), left it on the table, in the evening I came, threw everything else in the HP (2 minutes), kneaded, everything fermented by itself (you only need to knead once in the middle of the process), formed a loaf (1 minute) , distance and into the oven. Total - 5 - 6 minutes of your time. Well, maybe a little more.The loaves are super! I recommend multiplying everything by 2 and baking 2 loaves at once, since the bars are small in weight - 300 grams. So, come on, get away from the New Year's feast and learn how to bake bread.
Here is a loaf like this - fragrant, with a thin crispy crust, with an openwork and soft crumb.

Here I am - here I am -

Hello Oksanchik! Well you have strength will - compete with Napoleon and destroy toys from the tree! Well done!

strange glaze enhances the caramel flavor of the cookies!

Yeah, it emphasizes! She herself is essentially a caramel, just not cooked. Well, how is your tree, still in toys?

just today I watched the videos, thanks for them tremendous, when I saw the blooming willow tea, as if I was in my forest clearing, I even felt the smell, the sun, no longer hot, the wasps are buzzing, the smell of needles, autumn leaves and the delicate, intoxicating, delicate aroma of blooming , the last Ivan-tea ...

Helen, that was what she wanted - to immerse everyone in the aroma of a summer fireweed meadow! So we succeeded! It's great when there is a blizzard outside the window to see this beauty. The smell is already felt. Ochobenno, if you look at this beauty with a mug of Ivan-tea.

And I was interested in the preparation of Koporsky Ivan-tea, but I immediately killed the collection of raw materials, breaking the stems completely (we collect it carefully, without breaking it), fermentation is interesting, just in a bucket, and completely closed, and the second one is just under a towel, it seems to me everything not right, too?

You know, I was also interested in this experience. And I don't see anything scary (or strange?) Here. Here we get a double fermentation - first in a bucket (like our method of "sweating"), and then - additional. And towel fermentation is one way of making tea. Only now, too, I was sorry to watch the fireweed break. Although, if you do not break it all, then it's okay - the stem will still grow and even bloom. We have already spoken here about mowing ivan tea in early July. It grows and blooms by autumn. And when all the rest of the tea is already puffed out, the mowed is ready to prepare new batches of tea.

[lappl1]

lappl1, Ludmila, Hi! And there are toys - I baked a lot of them. So I think today to cut a big spice. For the New Year, you only need to eat goodies!
I have long wanted to write, as children, we loved to go to a village with Czech roots (immigrants live there since Stalin's time) and "celebrate" all sorts of funerals and weddings there, they will not go anywhere together. Why exactly for these events? People are strange creatures, they do not really like to open their souls and the doors of their homes, especially there. And on these two holidays they always treated everyone, especially children. They always put sweets on their table right away. First, we have a regular meal, and then a sweet table, where cakes are side by side with cutlets. And no one controls you eat the cutlet, and then you eat the cake or cake with a cutlet, or you ignore the cutlets altogether. It turned out to be a very vivid childhood memory. As soon as I remember these colored waffle cakes with boiled condensed milk cream, napoleons and honeycakes! that's the story
And now you can view the seeds and soon we are planting my favorite peppers!

And I like the Manyashiny Kranta oven https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=184371.0
Delicious! Recommend .
At work I treat, then they demand

I have long wanted to write - as children we loved to travel to the village with Czech roots

How interesting you wrote about human nature. Yes, there is such a thing - not to let the soul into the owl. But where I lived, any person who entered the house is the best GUEST. Until recently, it was the case that if a guest praised something in the house, the owner would give it to him with joy and gratitude. I remember my husband telling me how he went to visit his sick worker who lived in a working hostel. I went into the room, and there were only mattresses on the floor (as Kazakhs should). No table, nothing ... This sick boy jumped up and ran away somewhere. He came running with a piece of flatbread and a handful of dry tea. I covered one of the mattresses with oilcloth, made tea and began to treat my husband.And when he left, he gave him the remaining piece of cake. My husband took it, knowing that a refusal could offend a hospitable Kazakh guy.
I remember how another working husband invited us to his aul - 300 km from Alma-Ata. For us, they slaughtered 2 sheep. Then we ate meat in all its forms - beshbarmak, shish kebab, lagman. and all this took place in a huge yurt. It was not possible to refuse the invitation. This boy was grateful that his husband took him to work when everyone refused everywhere.
Yes, it was simply not possible to enter the neighboring department - they would not let go without a mug of tea. And they gave me a handful of sweets.
By the way, yesterday one friend of my husband called to congratulate NG. said that the eldest son is getting married and he invites my husband and me to the wedding. The husband decided to joke, saying that send an invitation along with a ticket to Alma-Ata and back. He was so happy, said that wait for the requisites of the ticket for the e-mail. I then scolded my husband for a long time. Saying: "After all, you know that he will buy tickets, why did you tell him?"
Yes, there are traditions of hospitality everywhere. And this is great!

And now you can view the seeds and soon we are planting my favorite peppers!

Oksanchik, do not forget to whistle when you need to plant. Good? And then I myself have never raised seedlings myself - relatives and neighbors usually shared. I must try to grow it myself.

And I really liked the dough from Anis universal https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/in...ion=com_smf&topic=45301.0 everything was kneaded by the bread maker, I threw it into the refrigerator and FSE! Using ordinary yeast, did Lyudochka try this? They also bake bread from it.

And I like the Manyashiny Kranta oven

Ahh, I saw them. All somehow my hands did not reach. Well, since you mentioned them, I'll bake them the other day. Thank you, Oksanchik, for reminding me.

Using ordinary yeast, did Lyudochka try this?

Yes, I baked it like that. I didn’t use this recipe, but I used to bake some breads. And with dry yeast. I also like this method.

Lyudochka, I still remember "kutya", which I ate only once in that village, though I don't remember who gave it to me, the little one was tastier than that "kutya" was no longer there, although I myself try to repeat more than once! ate it before Easter. And I also ate the dish "bushka" (I write as I say) there, a very strange dish, almost mystical, a terrible heap (my stepfather loved it very much). It was a completely different world, I always wanted to look into it. Oh, memories ...
I plant peppers on January 25 + - the day, then they all ripen with us. I like to plant peppers, half a liter of earth is enough or a little more - they do not last for them, in principle, cold at night and somehow not troublesome to me. Lyudochka, we need to plant it, it's very exciting!

Oh, memories ...

Oksana, yes memories warm the soul very much. But so are dreams of the future. So, in the New Year, I wish everyone that the most cherished dreams of all of you girls come true.

Lyudochka, we need to plant it, it's very exciting!

We will definitely plant our flowers. Right now I cooked borscht - all my own - and fried from peppers, tomatoes, canned in autumn, cabbage, potatoes, garlic, onions, beets, frozen greens. Everything is so tasty that at the stage of cutting vegetables I ate from the belly. And oh what a borscht! From store-bought vegetables this will not work. so, on January 25, I sow peppers. Thank you, Oksana. You tell me about tomatoes later. I have 10 of them in store.

Girls, now the newsletter has come from the site "Positive". Very good poetry. Copying to us here:



Come on according to the New Year's law -
Let's leave everything unnecessary behind our backs:
Unpleasant phone calls
Alone last weekend ...

Unexpected troubles and losses
All diseases that came on the sly ...
And we will open the doors in the New Year, with a smile.
Light in the soul from the New Year's snow ...

We will take with us a package of brilliant ideas,
A bag of joy, trunks of kindness.
And friends - so close and real ...
Let's not forget to grab our dreams.

We'll break into New Year with a white stripe
Covering the negative with pure snow,
To appreciate people with spiritual beauty ...
The inner courtyard is so beautiful.

And on the Christmas tree the garland flashes so
Like the hope that burns in the hearts of people.
And let's believe that - does not happen ...
And the year of good news will begin!

Irina Samarina

May the New 2015 not become insipid
And it will be bright, interesting!
Gambling, creative and courageous,
Filled with meaning, the right thing!
Let the renewal breathe happiness
A flight of dreams and inspiration!
Let the gratitude be honest
And life is pleasant and wonderful!

He went to the people - he was already writing poetry. I, too, mulberries, in the morning I flew to the detour, then to my relatives - a day of visits and congratulations. Only now it came to the computer. I made Sanadorin bars - there is my report with photos.

He went to the people - he was already writing poetry.

No, I didn't write it, I just copied it. But I subscribe to every word!

I made Sanadorin bars - there is my report with photos.

Lina, I saw your report with the bar when I was walking around Mani's recipes. Good! There are several recipes for loaves. And they are all great - I have already baked everything. I am very happy with the size - just for my oven.

May the New 2015 not become insipid

Allochka, good poetry, sincere! Thank you !

Yes, Lenochka, only you and I are good women
I wrote once that my tea was stored in large metal. jars and there was practically no smell, as it seemed to me, that they were not very tightly closed there, I poured them into glass jars, and so I opened one of them today, what a scent appeared, wow !!

Lena, maybe they'll get sick of a bitter hangover again with our tea and they will feel better. If you don't appear just about, you will have to go! Pack your backpack.
Oh, girls, I apologize, I opened a link from the mail, went to this forum on it and I got the last 2 messages from Lena Kadieva and decided that there is still no one))))), and now they are taking me by the hand further , bake bread. Tomorrow morning I will meet my sister from the Kursk region and bake with her.
Girls, I don't remember whether I already wrote to you or not, my sister raised 21 children from orphanages! +3 of her own.
And about hospitality, the northern people are sooo hospitable, the guest in the house is always sweeping everything on the table!

Girls, I don't remember whether I wrote to you or not, my sister raised 21 children from orphanages! +3 of her own.

Checkmark, tell your sister a huge thank you for these kids! From all of us! I know what it means to bring up such children. I myself worked a little with them, but I came to them once a week. And my sister worked for 3 years in an orphanage after the Institute of Foreign Languages. There were no places in schools in the city then, so she got a job in an orphanage. She lived there almost without getting out. She shared her experiences. It's very hard. But the way your sister is raising them is something! I bow to her.

here they lead me further by the hand, bake bread.

Gal, I take you by the handle and lead you on. Ask what is not clear. Mix 2 portions at once and bake 2 loaves, if you decide to bake loaves using the link I gave you. You can mix flour with dry yeast in a bowl in the evening, and in the morning add warm water and knead the dough with handles (a couple of minutes). close it with a lid or plastic and go meet your sister. And in the evening you will bake.

just for my oven.

In-in, Luda, I also have a mini-oven. Therefore, I either do it in half, or divide it into 2 before proofing - one half for proofing, the second in the refrigerator for tomorrow's proofing (the second is always better).

or maybe they'll get away from a bitter hangover again with our tea and they will feel better.

Raspberry and mint tea (if there is no pickle) is an excellent hangover treatment.

the second in the refrigerator for tomorrow's proofing (the second is always better).

Linochka, exactly! From the dough that has spent the night in the refrigerator, bread is always more aromatic and tasty. I just took a manin loaf out of the oven. But tomorrow we need to bake again, as it is small. So today at 3 am I will put the dough on 2 loaves, so that I can do it the way you, Lina, said.

Yes, Lyudochka, thank you, I will.And today the children came to us, the elders, live in Moscow, I saw my granddaughter, it’s still so good at heart. She is affectionate, such a gentle girl, 3.5 years old. It's good that here we can share both troubles and joys ..

So, today I opened one of them, what a scent appeared, wow !!

Checkmark, well, thank God, saved the tea! And I still can't breathe and get drunk with June Ivan-tea! Oh my God, what tea! No, girls, we must direct all our forces in June to fireweed. And we will have time to make the rest of the tea from garden sauces before the snow.

it's good that here we can share both troubles and joys ..

Let's leave all the troubles last year, and only dream of joys in the new one. Well, if anything, God forbid, we will definitely support.
Gal, it's good that I saw my granddaughter. The joy in the house is multiplied by the children!

If a severe hangover torments you very well, wormwood helps well, a pinch of dry wormwood per cup of boiling water raises the "dead" one. But then it's better to sit on a diet.
Checkmark bake bread, I'm tired of waiting.

[Galina Iv.]

Girls, Dear! Happy New Year! Happiness! Health! Love! Good luck! (and a bunch of Money!)

Galina Iv., thank you for your poetic congratulations (so nice that they did not forget me)))
For you personally, Christmas trees "navayala"! (glass, copper, wool, tangerine, only, real ... but it could have been soapy, but you can handle soap without me)))))

Inga, what are your "vayashki" charming girls, I will take that weirdo of fur, he looks at me right. Checkmark, my lowest bow to our sister, I bow down, this is how much kindness and patience it takes to raise children! I still have a "prehistoric, Soviet" upbringing, when respect for the doctor and teacher is in my blood, although times change and many people do not meet my standards. but...
Ksun, the cake is a little fat, of course, it came out, there is a lot of cream (after I read about the amount that you wrote, it was already collected), but, of course, tasty and fast, I will definitely bake!
Good morning, girls, with a good 40-degree morning (this is our frost like this, and even with the wind).

with a good 40 degree morning

Yes, my native country is wide ... and the Internet is without borders!
Good day to you girls, we have +1.
Inga, I really liked the beads! While Checkmark is receiving guests, we will touch everything.

[Inga]

Ingahow talented and beautiful everything is! Bravo! I just want to hang a Christmas tree with beads somewhere on myself.

Good morning girls, good 40 degree morning

we have 1

Lena, Valya, indeed, the temperature range is impressive! We also have +1, and by Christmas the Internet drew us -30 *. Brrrr!
Peter - Galya, Oksana, Nastya, and you are fighting a flood there. You be more careful there, make sure that the sea-ocean is not carried away.

[Loksa]

Oh, girls, hello to you! Yesterday it was gushing all day yesterday, and today it is very wet snow! brrrrr .. worth dough for bread!
Loksa, I will report

Today I galloped down the street for half a day (and what? -Year of a goat) with bumps on bumps I chose a dry place. On my computer, the office was covered with Mlyn-intrigues of imperialISM not only in the country, but also in my house specifically. What did I do to them? Well, I don't laugh with Zadornov sometimes, but this is purely humor, and they can’t open the Word for me on my computer, but I have to write work, you won’t take anything with our bare hands

worth the dough for bread!

Galya, how's the bread? Should be ready already! I just baked mine ...

My office is covered on my computer

Oksana, I sympathize ... Well, nothing, the office can be reinstalled. most importantly, the computer is intact.

Girls, the poems are not mine, I liked it, I decided to please you.
We also have trouble with the weather, it changes constantly. It was raining, now it is covered with snow, tomorrow they promise rain again. And on Christmas, frost is up to 25 degrees, if snow does not cover the ground, I'm afraid to even think what will happen.
My tea is stored in disposable transparent boxes (well, though not very much) and glass jars. The same tea from glass jars is much more aromatic.

[lappl1]

lappl1, repaired everything, went to put bread too. I ran through the puddles for half a day, soaked my legs, but I had to sit at home and press the buttons.
Alla, such a frost without snow?

on Christmas, frost is up to 25 degrees, if snow does not cover the ground, I'm afraid even to think what will happen.

such a frost without snow?

Oh, I am also worried that there will be such a cold. And even though there is a little snow, but water is champing under it. Today I had to go to the garden. Went in felt boots with galoshes. So she came with wet felt boots - she took full galoshes of water. Yes, nature brings surprises.

My tea is stored in disposable transparent boxes (well, though not very much) and glass jars. The same tea from glass jars is much more aromatic.

In fact, tea should be kept in tightly closed glass jars. But I somehow started packing tea in plastic containers, and I continue. We must try to switch to banks next season.

We must try to switch to banks next season.

So I put everything in banks at once (remember my first photo, somewhere on the first pages). I confirm, the banks are excellent! I found that photo:

I just came from the dacha - water covered with snow. Now I have put the cottage cheese cakes with "drunken" cranberries from the cranberries, they will be in about 30 minutes.

Lina, I remember your jars. I still can't count my 17.5 kg for cans. How many do you need? I always miss them for conservation. This year even begged from neighbors ...

Well, here are the cupcakes for tea (with cottage cheese, cranberries and fresh eggs):

I, too, always do not have enough cans, except for 3 liter ones, I store them in coffee cans, tightly screwed, I like it, but I remember the brains I endured here at first, "but this can be stored, but in this ..." Good evening, we have such a calm then, vacation chtoli arranged from everything?

I store them in coffee cans, which are tightly screwed, I like it, but I remember putting out my brains here at first, "but this can be stored, but in this

Helen, hello! And, indeed, the lull ... probably, they hardly crawl away from the table.
And I don't have so many coffee cans. I myself drink coffee in beans - it is not sold in cans. And the husband drinks some kind of instant drink. I got myself one can and buys a bag of instant coffee, pouring it into the vacant can. But I agree - this is a good option - pouring tea into coffee cans. By the way, I also have one 3-liter free. But do not pour different batches of tea there. Because every time the tea is different and you want to find the best option for the fermentation time. So you need to start glass jars for 0.5 - 1.0 liters.

Well, here are the cupcakes for tea

Lina, what cute cupcakes. Even with a photo, the aroma is felt.

All night greetings! (it froze with us). I report on the loaves, Lyudochka: mmmmmmm ... mmmmm. mmm
Do not judge strictly, it tastes well sooo tasty! In the first photo, the color is not natural, see on the second))
And here is the cut:

I baked a double portion at once, 2 loaves, by the evening of yesterday only a small piece remained. Hmm ... I'm already afraid for the figure
