Today is the first day of the Maslenitsa week, and that means that spring is around the corner!

In honor of the Sun first baked unleavened cakes, and when I learned to cook zakaznoe dough - steel oven pancakes. Ancient considered a pancake is symbol of the Sun, since he, like the Sun, yellow, round and hot, and believed that together with a pancake they eat a part of its heat and power. So let's follow their example and grab a piece of sunshine for yourself!
