Now, I want to write about our tradition People in Ukraine have their own special traditions. One of them is Maslenitsa - the holiday, which lasts for a week, to say "goodbye" to winter. We celebrate it at the end of February or at the beginning of March. During this holiday we celebrate the end of winter and the beginning of spring. In old times people usually cooked pancakes,had fires, burnt straw scarecrows of winter, they sang songs and danced. Now during "Maslenitsa week" we always cook pancakes. We invite our friends, our nearest and dearest to see each other and eat pancakes with sour cream, fish, caviar or butter, sugar, honey. Goodbye!
