As you know, I live in
Ukraine, in the country with a lot of traditions, that is why I would like to
tell you about our winter celebrations. In winter we have 3 big holidays: New
Year, Christmas and New Year by old style.
New Year is the biggest and
very important celebration for Ukrainian people. We begin our celebrations the 31st
of December. As a rule, we meet New Year with family or with the best friends. All
of us decorate tree and flat and cook different dishes, such as: salad with
crab sticks or Olivier - the most popular salad in Ukraine and cook this dish is
the very big tradition. Our people don’t understand how other people can meet
New Year without Olivier. Frankly, I don’t like this salad, because I hate
canned green peas, which is in the recipe, but my mum always cooks this salad
and sometimes forces me, that I eat this beautiful dish. Then we follow old
year and wait chiming clock. I very like make a wish during chiming clock. For
me it’s beautiful and romantic…. Then we eat dishes, which cook earlier. At
last, we see TV (comedies or New Year’s programs or films). As for me, I like
watch 3 parts of New Year’s film, which is called: “Home Alone”. It’s my personally
tradition. Then we go to the bed. In the morning we go to the tree and we are
looking for present, which puts under the tree Did Moroz. And we are very fun…
Like this, Ukrainian people
meet New Year!
