Julia Kovalchuk (singer, leading show "One to one", "Weighted People"):
"When I lived with my parents, then every spring we had to celebrate Easter." On the eve, all the baked cakes together, painted eggs, and the next morning was going at the table. The very joyful and bright atmosphere reigned. We loved to play ordinary Easter games: Chose Eggs, and then beat them, and when they were eating cake, they thought how many raisins were caught. There was a sign that the one who would get the most berries will be the happiest. After the feast, we were chosen on the fresh air: you left for the cottage, just in some beautiful park, walked, pleased with the first warmth. Now, when I have my own family, we have breakfast with your husband, if it turns out, invite friends. True, the cakes due to lack of time I am not a bake, buy ready-made.
For me, a person is not very religious, Easter is a spring holiday, awakening from the winter dream of nature, when everything starts to bloom, flashes. I do not go to the church for Easter services, but I love to watch on TV broadcasting from temples - this is a very solemn and beautiful ceremony.

- In my family, the most religious person is my grandmother, and the attitude towards Easter was almost like a new year, as a bright, joyful, uniting holiday. She walked while they allowed the strength to the middle services, consecrated his own baked cakes, painted eggs, congratulated, gave all these goodies to those who met. How much I remember, in this spring day there was always good sunny weather, passersby smiled on the streets. I adored Easter eggs, I was found to fall. Sometimes guests came, the battles on the eggs were arranged at home.
We have with Pavl (in addition, - approx. Womanhit) Young family, and we try to keep the Easter traditions of our elders. I, unlike my grandmother, not a big homemade baking wizard, but, after a successful experiment with the strzder, I think to change the recipe for traditional scene - add an apple to it. Eggs we do not paint, usually bypass with translation pictures, but this year you will think of something with food colors, put our child for this artistic work.

- I and my loved ones do not treat very religious people, we do not hold the post, but, like all Orthodox, we celebrate the bright Easter holiday every year. We do not have special family Easter traditions: like our parents, we paint eggs, and then we arrange the competition - who has a stronger shell. We work a lot, and I buy cakes, or my mom brings from Tomsk your own pastry, but I always ask my spouse to make a curd Easter - I love this dish. On holiday morning, we are just going to the whole family at the table - I, my wife and children. This is an excellent reason to congratulate your loved ones, share my joy, to talk sincecently.

- This holiday is very important for believers, and for me personally this is the brightest Orthodox holiday. I try to seriously treat him, prepare and, of course, spend time with family and loved ones.
We will definitely paint eggs, cakes. Since childhood, there is still such a cheerful tradition - in the morning we arrange the "Battle of Yaitz": who has a whole egg - he won. Almost always the winner is my mother. She has its own tricky tactic. At the same time, the female half of our family does not eat eggs, so they go to men every year.

- Easter is one of my favorite holidays, a very warm memories of childhood are connected with it. We are sanctifying the eggs in the church, I myself try to oven the cakes with a raisin on traditional technology, in the morning we are going to the whole family at the table - on the eve of planning your schedules so as not to work on this day, visit friends. True, two years in a row I did not work out to meet Easter at home - in 2014 I was in Los Angeles, I found the Christian temple, where the flock was Russian diaspora, went to the service.
At one time I kept the great post, I tried to avoid bad, evil thoughts, anger, and realized that such a tradition of self-cleaning is useful to everyone, regardless of religion, this is excellent psychotherapeutic practice. By the way, my familiar Catholics and Muslims congratulate me on this day! When you talk after the post, you eat delicious cakes, which was so climbed to try until the holiday, you feel rapidly, look at the usual things in a new, unaware view!

- Orthodox believing Easter is the main holiday of the year, the holiday of the joyful, light miracle of the Resurrection, the celebration of life over death and destruction. Let someone do not fully understand his meaning and celebrates this day, rather, the habit is not important. The main thing is that the tradition of alive is transmitted from generation to generation.
I have a crazy work schedule, morning, daytime, evening and night shifts, and therefore note this bright holiday, as a rule, does not come out. But I, of course, congratulate all my friends and loved ones with Easter.

"I am a believer: we will watch my family, we cook the delicious cakes before the holiday, Easter from cottage cheese, paint eggs, come to the all-night vigil, and we will talk in the morning. Culichi is not my spouse, and I myself, without bread maker: I take the products, knead the dough, lay out the molds and send it into the oven. I do not feel sorry for cooking time: I want to have completely natural things on the table, created with bright thoughts and wishes, it seems to me that it is very important in such a big holiday.
My mother is a Catholic, and I am Orthodox, but Easter is equally important to us, the difference is only in calendar dates. Previously, we celebrated twice, but now I have my own family, the child goes the third year, and we celebrate Easter in our circle. It does not work towards parents, unfortunately, as they live in another city.
