Bread and salt (Winner of the Second Place in The Critic in August 2017)
An old Russian tradition: newlywed groom's parents are greeted with bread and salt. Biting the bread in turn, whose piece will be more, he and the head of the family:) This is a joke, but it is very fun guests..This tradition is very many years old. Bread and salt always met the most expensive guests in Russia. The combination of bread and salt played an exceptionally capacious character: bread expressed the desire for wealth and well-being, and salt was considered an amulet capable of protecting a person from hostile forces and influences. The hospitality of the guest with bread and salt established between him and the host a relationship of affection and trust; It is not for nothing that it says: "The king does not refuse bread and salt."
