Recently on a site “we Prepare houses” I has found the recipe from Elena 110 - generally it is called “Beaten glass” but as we already have a pie under such name, it was necessary to process the name creatively. We name it rulet "Kaleidoscope". It is an excellent dessert to tea, especially for the company where there are children. They unequivocally will like the multi-coloured slices of fruit candy turned in soft flaky pastry, impregnated with a sugar syrup

And it prepares very simply! It is required to us:

• Flaky pastry packing
• Nearby 300 gr fruit candy of different colour

Test layer is thin to unroll. To lay out abreast fruit candy of one colour. To turn in the dough. To lay out abreast following colour of fruit candy. Again to turn in the dough. And in the same way to turn the fruit candy third row. To turn to try more tightly. Very carefully to pinch edge and the ends ruleta that the stuffing (I the dough has not flowed out has slightly moistened with water and has closed up). It is possible to grease top jajtsom (I did not do it). To bake in razogretoj to an oven of minutes 20-30.

To allow ruletu to cool down (differently fruit candy can flow out). Before giving to slice, thickness about 2 centimetres.

Cheerful to you of tea drinking!

Last Monday I with the younger kiddies have absolutely unexpectedly appeared on a holiday organised by mummies which try to revive Russian national traditions. We celebrated the Trinity - great dvunadesjatyj a holiday in memory soshestvija the Holy Spirit on apostles. Usually after church divine services began cheerful national guljanija with songs and round dances, "narjazhaniem" birches and feasts …

Here and we are parents with the kids - have gathered on a green lawn in one of city court yard. While all gathered and changed clothes, kids got acquainted and chose to itself ribbons with which will decorate a birch.

Vanjushka too easy laid in the carriage and observed of an event

When all have gathered, have dressed shirts and sundresses, have tied with belts and have weaved wreaths, here and began to drive a round dance round one alone standing birch - who on the feet, and who and on mum's or daddy's hands.

After that the birch ornament multi-coloured ribbons has followed. I Mashutka very long did not wish to leave the orange ribbon when we all the same have fastened it, she long "watched" the ornament

Having played and having run about, kiddies, certainly, slega have got hungry, and is faster - have wanted to drink. We bystrenko have spread rugs, have spread out delicacies, have poured juice in glasses. Boys, having thrown pair of pieces of "meal" in a mouth, have gone at once to study vicinities, to collect sticks, to cut a nettle, and girls have continued to "eat" - as on a table was so much vkusnostej - pies, rolls, spice-cakes, cookies, not speaking already about sweets and fruit candy.

That all was more cheerful, our Godfather has got an accordion and won back national melodies. Agree, very picturesquely!

Here there was a sin not to be photographed to the godson with the Godfather - here so:

Well and at last - your devoted press photographers, one of which sits in slinge:

I so waited for this day …

Warm summer day … Having taken a walk across Ekaterinburg, poprovedav in scientific research institute OMM maternity home the acquaintance whom I did not see years 5 and fairly having got hungry, we have come into cafe-tavern "Lived-were", issued in old-Russian style …

In a public catering I also do not remember such disappointment … Before me the account on 564 roubles lays and it is a pity to me of this money as good for them I have not received anything. So, raaskazhu is more detailed about our "dinner" …

1. For 2-year-old Mashutki we have decided to take “the Potato in a rural way, fried on a butter with golden luchkom”. Sounds appetizing? Too so it seemed to us … And that we have received - 3 quarters of a boiled average potato (a last year's crop), fried most likely yesterday as no crackling and fragrant crust existed. As well as onions … And here these 3 slices of a dry potato have managed to us in 40 roubles …
2. Still we have ordered “Soup-noodles chicken” … a little oddish smell, a minimum of a hen, but as a whole is edible, when is very hungry. 79 roubles.
3. My husband already on a habit at restaurant orders "Soljanku" - from its words, such dish is difficult for spoiling. And here in it cafes have spoilt it, not looking at all that it was with an asterisk, that is firm. … We and have not understood simply awfully sour soup - in it have poured in a lemon juice or it is banal has turned sour? 89 roubles.
4. “Roast with ceps”. A pot of the small size with pjureobraznoj in weight from a potato, a carrot and rare impregnations of tiny slices of meat and mushrooms. Thus the dish has oddish plastic smack, and it can is simple additives in the spirit of “identical natural”? 155 roubles.
5. To myself I have ordered “a Cauliflower fried in crackers”. Taste to describe difficult enough, I will tell one - in meal I very unpretentious person and since the childhood it is accustomed to leave a plate pure … but I to eat IT simply not could. I will add, that again sensation that is prepared yesterday, and before giving razogreto in mikrovolnovke. 59 roubles for such muck!
6. Well and samoja comprehensible to taste was “Piramidka from an eggplant with tomatoes under sauce from Fet's cheese”. Has surprised a serving size: 3 circles an eggplant, 1 (!) circle pomidorki and a little cheese sauce … stand 87 roubles …
7. Well and tea … in a brewing teapot from a bag. Here I of anything bad cannot.

Do not think, that I avaricious and greedy … would be not a pity To me also larger sum if we have pleasantly spent time, new original dishes have tried or is simple what time does not suffice to prepare houses … is simply insulting, that under the big and beautiful signboard, behind tempting descriptions in the menu the meal in the worst sense of this word … hides ordinary stolovskaja

By the way, recently at me the husband simply was indignant concerning unscrupulous work of copywriters which I attribute to products nonexistent, and at times and absurd properties. And about it he too has written in the blog in article.

Hurrah! Ur! Ur! Now we had the site, which maintenance we can define! Agree, sometimes in a network it would be desirable to esteem something interesting, useful, and at times easy and vital? To travel on different sites not always it is represented convenient, especially often references with headings conduct us at all there where we would like, and article at all about about what it was announced …

On a site each visitor chooses to itself interesting article, being guided not only on heading, but also under comments and a rating which is formed by other readers. And the registered visitor can spread itself references to the materials which have liked it in a network, to leave comments, to add or diminish points in a rating.

For bolshego conveniences of article are distributed on corresponding headings: a family and relations, beauty and health, cookery, a fashion, rest and others. That you would like to learn all, and then and to tell about read to visitors of a site of female news, it is possible to place on site pages.

With impatience I will wait your responses about this project, your wishes and the healthy criticism!

Probably, many mums, especially at what the child not one, worry that time not always suffices to work with children. Not to include an animated cartoon, and most to go to wash ware, not to get a box of toys and to leave the child alone with it, and most to be engaged razveshivaniem linen. Though at times I and affairs house do together with the karapuzikami – for example, kiddies get linen from a washing machine, stir up it and submit to me that I have already hanged out it. Or display plugs-spoons in corresponding trays, clean dirty ware from a table or even wash easy subjects.

And one of these days we with kids were engaged in very interesting business: cut out figured cookies, baked it, and then painted. It was pleasant absolutely to all – from my younger 6-year-old brother Aleshi to the small 5-month's Vanjushki which with the great pleasure observed of process.
So, I will tell more in detail …
The usual shortcake dough in which for softness I have added cottage cheese was an initial material. Components took approximately:
150 gr a butter
200 gr sugar
250 gr cottage cheese (cottage cheese paste)
2-3 eggs (which I have carefully washed up since with the test children will work)
L ch.l. A baking powder
Flour

Soft butter to pound with sugar, to add cottage cheese, eggs. To sift a flour with a baking powder, to knead soft, but not the sticky dough. To roll a sphere, to turn it in a polyethylene package and to put in a refrigerator of minutes on 30.

[The note: cookies would be more fragrant if in it to add vanillin or a lemon or orange dried peel]

I all it has made while children had a nap after dinner. To their awakening "material" was already ready.
Since test it has turned out much enough to start work I cut off half, and the rest has returned in a refrigerator.
For a cutting of figures we took trafaretiki from a set for a moulding plasticine. Here the such: (we them did not cut out plasticine, so they were absolutely new and pure).

Having pinched off everyone on a test slice, I have unrolled it in a small layer in the thickness in 1 see Certainly, is better to cut out figures it turned out at Aleshi, Tima too cut out, but figures at it turned out more "art" - with wavy edges, with mysterious outlines in which it is difficult to behold the car or a tractor.

But Mashune always it is pleasant to rumple simply the dough in hands, therefore it has crumpled it at once in a lump and on it squeezed out figures.

As a result at us it has turned out whole protiven machines, tractors, small houses, butterflies and bears. Voot the such:
Colouring of ready cookies by chocolate glaze was a following stage, but here mum has missed a chance – glaze has not turned out at me. I have mixed the kindled butter with a powder-cocoa, but whether cocoa have a little put, whether technology absolutely another, but it has not turned out glazes. However it has not upset children at all: main family artist Timothy with ecstasy painted figures,
Masha secretly thrust in a mouth ready pechenki,

And Alesha has continued to cut out cookies from the remained test - very much it liked this business.

And here our end result: all the evening long children ate only cookies, about other meal they and to think did not want
