Mother’s Day Mother is the most important person in the life of everyone. She gave us the life, she devoted all her life and time to us, she was always near to feed us and take care of us. So for me one of the best holidays is Mother’s Day. In Russia we usually celebrate this day on the last Sunday of November. We usually give our mothers flowers and some little presents, some people take their mothers to a restaurant for dinner, we also say very nice words to them. Of course it is not the only day when we should say our mothers about our love and gratitude for everything she has done for us. In America Mother's Day comes on the second Sunday in May. As well as in Russia, in America it is not a national holiday. The holiday was suggested by Anna Jarvis. In 1907, the day was celebrated in a church in Philadelphia. A member of that church had the Sunday morning service to honour her own mother. More and more churches in cities started having a special day to honour moth

tea time Nowadays due to social changes and work schedules, afternoon tea is now mainly saved for special occasions. However, taking a cup of tea and a slice of cake at afternoon tea time is not uncommon. Traditional afternoon tea consists of a selection of dainty sandwiches (including of course thinly sliced cucumber sandwiches), scones served with clotted cream and preserves. Cakes and pastries are also served. Tea grown in India or Ceylon is poured from silver tea pots into delicate bone china cups. Nowadays however, in the average suburban home, afternoon tea is likely to be just a biscuit or small cake and a mug of tea, usually produced using a teabag. But if you want to enjoy old traditions of afternoon tea you can visit one of the tea rooms. Tearoom is a small room or restaurant where beverages and light meals are served, often catering chiefly to women and having a sedate or subdued atmosphere. Here you can be proposed three kinds of tea: cream tea, which includes tea,

An English breakfast 13 British breakfast I'm really enjoying life in a foreign country, however there is always the odd home comfort I really miss (usually food),  but if you visit England, breakfast will be something like this: Eggs (either fried or scrambled) Bacon Sausage Toast or fried bread Baked beans Hash browns Tomato Mushrooms This is usually served with ketchup on the side, a glass of orange juice and of course a big cup of tea. Often people are mistaken that this is the kind of thing British people eat at the start of every day but that is rarely the case.

As people have become much more health conscious in recent years, healthy breakfasts and brunches such as homemade smoothies and avocado on toast are becoming really popular. Of
