When the whole family gathered at a big table and talked for a long time, we also sang, played musical instruments. I'm from a family of musicians - that's why I feel myself confidently at the piano since my childhood ... When we were with our mother we were preparing a festive table together - she was engaged in cooking, and I decorated everything, painted eggs, and most of all I liked decorating cakes for everything that came across hand ".

We delegate responsibilities: those who like to go to church early in the morning - go to church, those who like to chop balyk and peel eggs - chop balyk and clean eggs, and those who do not like to do anything - go to the store for wine. All these three categories of Shurovs and our closest relatives gather on the banks of beloved Dnieper. Every time we choose a new place and there we say toasts for a festive dinner and we are happy that we are living, happy, healthy people.
Be sure to play the game "who breaks the egg," in which I always win (laughs), although last year won the Leva.
Cooking and cook, and buy, and give them to us. And my wife Olga does every year according to different recipes - she herself comes up with something interesting, she experiments. I do not have a favorite recipe, but there is a favorite size - I believe that Easter cake does not have to be huge: it should be big enough to eat it with a loved one, but small enough that nothing is left.
The most important thing is that there is a Passover feast in every country in the world - this is an uplifting spirit. It does not matter what you eat and drink - it is important that your loved ones are near ".
