My son is in 1st grade. The teacher sends d / s and other information to the general group in watsap. I read and cry, because such pearls as: split, take, choose - have not been surprising for a long time.
I have no questions about what she can teach first-graders, not the point.
I have a question about how she passed the exam in general, and then she also graduated from the pedagogical one.
The school is good, the teacher is positioned as strong.

Recently I complained to a friend that I dream of living first until the daytime sleep of the child, and then until the night. I count the hours. It seems that only after the child falls asleep is just beginning, my own life. We are three years old. I thought after a year it would get easier, but it only got harder. The forces are already there.
And then she said one thing that really offended me. That once I get up from a child, I do not love him. That you can’t wait until you fall asleep, you have to enjoy every minute of communication, as she does with her two children. It's like waiting for someone to come and save me from the child for good. But it's not like that at all!! I just need a breather. The time when I’m missing for a tit, they don’t suck, they don’t yell in my ear, they don’t demand to play, sing a song, and so on. I did not know that every minute of my life would be occupied by him. The children of my friends could at least sometimes play on their own, without their mothers, but not mine. He yells even when I go out and apologize to the toilet without him.
And on the one hand, I'm offended that a friend said so. That once I get tired there is nothing to pose as a loving mother. On the other hand, I really love him very much and do not regret anything! But I'm so tired ...... Please tell me that I'm a normal mother, that everything is in order with me.

A friend called me yesterday. consult. Her son is 16 years old. He recently confessed to her that he was in love with a classmate. In the 10th grade I moved to another school. He says he saw her and that's it, he realized that "this is the most beautiful girl, with the most beautiful eyes in the world ..." A year ago, this friend told me that her son and her husband said: "There is no love! You have a habit! You live for the sake of children ... "And now she is tormented by love, suffers, writes poetry ... She asks her mother for advice ... To confess or not?
I tell my friend: "Let him decide. In such matters there is no right or wrong decision. Let him do as his heart tells him ..."
The topic is chatty ... Did the children share their love experiences with you? And what advice did you give them...

On the one hand, the topic is chatty, on the other hand, it is important for me. I'll try to write in a way that makes it clear what I'm talking about. Might be long, but still...
We have two parents, me and my older sister. My sister looks like my mother, I think she is prettier than myself, I look more like a dad. Previously, in adolescence and youth, it was not clear who it looked like more, but I always had complexes about my appearance. Now, when it comes to the fifth decade, I look at the changes in my appearance and understand that over the years I become my father’s copy, which I don’t really like. As a man, my dad is not beautiful, but maybe he was young, with a difficult character. Mom needs to erect a monument for living with him for more than forty years. But this is not particularly relevant to the case, it is to understand the scale of "gravity". I always considered myself that I have a character and not so bad. Now, again with age, I understand that I take a lot of traits from my dad, naturally unconsciously. Even my mother says that over the years it’s getting harder and harder with you, her character is similar to her father. I really don’t like it, I try to control myself, correct my behavior, but it doesn’t always work out. I’m very afraid that the genes will really work in old age, and I will become as unbearable as my father (stubborn, rude, selfish), but also my appearance ... I always dreamed of being outwardly similar to my mother ((((. And then ...
Do you think that you really can’t shut up genes with a finger, as they say, or is it still possible to do something else?

How to cook a delicious cake for Easter:
Thick dough for Easter cake
Sift the flour (1.25 kg) several times. This is necessary so that the cake turns out to be lush and airy. In a deep bowl, mix 300 ml of warm milk and 50 g of fresh or 25 g of dry yeast. Milk should not be hot (38-40 ºС). If it is too hot, the yeast will die.
Set the milk-yeast mixture aside for 10 minutes. Then add 500 g of flour and knead a thick dough until the lumps disappear.
Look at the photo, what is the consistency of the dough. Cover it with cling film or a towel and put it in a place without drafts. I put in the switched off oven or microwave. In order for the proofing place to have the temperature and humidity we need, you can put a glass of hot water next to the bowl.
Kneading the dough for the cake
Carefully separate the whites from the yolks. This must be done as carefully as possible so that not a single gram of yolk gets into the protein mass (otherwise the proteins will not whip). We remove the proteins in a cool place, and add sugar (200 g), vanilla sugar (10 g) or 2 tsp to 6 yolks. vanilla extract. You can put one yolk in the refrigerator, then to grease the tops of the cakes with it before baking.
We turn on the mixer or blender (with a whisk attachment) and start whipping the mass until white. It takes me 6-8 minutes at medium and most powerful mixer speeds.
Melt the butter (300 g) in the microwave, but not until completely dissolved, otherwise you can shock the yeast with a hot temperature. Enough of such a consistency, as in the photo. 
In the meantime, the dough has risen, having doubled in volume. Lightly knead it to release carbon dioxide.
Add the yolks, crushed with sugar, stir until smooth.
Next we send slightly flooded butter.
Mix the dough until smooth.
Beat with a mixer egg whites with the remaining sugar (200 g) into a thick, stable foam.
Gently fold the egg whites into the main batter.
Gradually add a little flour (500 g) to the mixture and try to knead the dough. First, you can do this with a spoon right in the bowl, then dust the horizontal surface with flour and proceed to kneading on a cutting board. At first, the dough will be very sticky to your hands, but after a long kneading it becomes soft and docile. 
The dough for Easter cakes should not be very steep. If you doubt that there is enough flour, it is better not to report it than to shift it.
If there is too much flour in the dough, the cake will turn out dense. Therefore, we regularly lubricate our hands with vegetable oil and knead patiently. If the Easter cake continues to look too liquid and sticks to your hands, in this case we add a little flour, knead again, etc. With Easter cakes, the arithmetic is simple: the longer we knead, the more layered the crumb will be in the finished cake (gluten develops well in the dough ).
The finished dough should be put on proofing in a place without drafts for 2-3 hours. The bowl in which the dough will rise all this time must be greased with vegetable oil. So that the surface of the dough does not wind up and does not become covered with a crust, cover it with a towel or tighten the container with cling film.
The time it takes to rise the dough is individual for each hostess: we all have different conditions in the apartment. Therefore, focus not on the time given in yeast dough recipes, but on appearance and the volume of the increased dough (it should “grow” 2 times).
When the dough has risen well, return it to the cutting board and knead for about 1-2 minutes to release carbon dioxide.
Attention! At this point, you can put the dough in the fridge overnight and then let it thaw for 1 hour before proceeding with the recipe. Cold proofing allows you to put half the yeast in the dough, so if you plan such a reception, you can reduce the yeast rate by 2 times.
Wash dried fruits and raisins thoroughly, then pour hot water(but not boiling water) and let stand for 10 minutes. After 15 minutes, drain the water, and dry the dried fruits on a paper towel and roll in flour.
Mix the dried fruits with the dough until they are evenly distributed in the dough.
It turns out a tender, elastic dough for Easter cakes.
Divide the dough into pieces and put into molds. At the bottom of each form, you can put a circle of parchment cut to the diameter of the form. Lubricate the walls with a piece of butter and sprinkle with flour, be sure to shake off the excess.
We cover the forms with the dough with a towel and put in a warm place for proofing (for 1.5-2 hours), until the dough rises to the edges of the form. If the form is very deep, you can wait until they increase 2-3 times in volume and bake.
When the Easter cakes in the forms rise well, grease them with yolk mixed with water and send them to the oven, which should warm up well to 160-170 C by this time.
Bake cakes in a preheated oven for 30-60 minutes. The baking time directly depends on the size of the cake: those that are smaller will bake no more than 25-30 minutes. We check the readiness of baking with a long wooden torch, which should come out of the middle of the cake dry.
One of the conditions for successful Easter cakes is not to open the oven door for the first 20 minutes (otherwise the airy dough may settle). If the surface of the Easter cakes becomes ruddy too quickly, you can cover them with circles of foil or parchment moistened with water.
Carefully remove the finished cakes from the molds by running a sharp knife along the walls, remove the baking paper from the bottom of the baking and cool on a wire rack.
Protein custard for Easter cakes
I love using protein. custard to cover Easter cakes (Swiss meringue), in such a glaze, proteins pass heat treatment and cease to be potentially hazardous to health. In addition, the icing is snow-white, thick and ideally suited to the taste of Easter cakes.
I posted it in a separate post (you can follow the link and read the recipe).
We organize water bath and put on top a pan with proteins (5 pcs) and powdered sugar (250 g).
Constantly stir with a regular whisk so that the mixture does not take on flakes.
Snow-white icing for Easter cakes
Traditional classic glaze is good for transportation (does not stick, unlike Swiss meringue), dries quickly, and keeps well.
To prepare it, beat 1 protein until light foam, add 125 g of powdered sugar, mix with a fork. Then add 1 tbsp. l. lemon juice and mix again.
Then gradually add powdered sugar, until we interfere with the entire volume put according to the recipe. You can focus on the thickness of the glaze: if you understand that it is already thick enough, do not add all the powdered sugar.
We apply glaze on Easter cakes and decorate to taste. You can use confectionery sprinkles, candied fruits, colored sugar or mastic figures.
I experiment a lot with recipes, I constantly try new options, so my relatives sometimes don’t have time to eat everything. If after Easter there are Easter cakes, I cut them into pieces and dry them. Such croutons are delicious to chew on just like that or with tea. They disperse!
I have recorded for you a detailed video recipe for another Easter cake for Easter, this is a delicious cream cake, enjoy watching! Vkontakte
I have a favorite recipe for Easter cakes, according to which I have been preparing Easter cakes for many years. Many of you know it and have even successfully prepared according to it. They turn out very tasty. But every year I look for and try some new recipe. For variety. Until this year, none of the new, tested ones could even compare with my favorite recipe. But this year I seem to have made a revolutionary coup within the same family. I found a recipe that literally shocked me. Shocked in every way. This recipe is very simple and INCREDIBLY delicious! If I had the opportunity to meet with the author of the recipe, I would bow 5 times to the waist !!!

Recipe "Kulich, which always turns out":
That's all we need. I strongly advise you to prepare everything in advance so that it is at hand, because the recipe is very fast, literally instant.
In my family, raisins are not very favored, but they are very fond of nuts. Therefore, instead of 300 g of raisins, I took 100 g of raisins, 100 g of almonds and 100 g of candied fruits.
Raisins must be sorted out, freed from the remnants of twigs and pour hot water for 15 minutes. Almonds pour boiling water for 3-4 minutes.
Then drain the boiling water, and pour over the almonds cold water and remove the husk. After that, you need to dry the almonds in the microwave for about three minutes, stirring every minute, or in a skillet, but without browning. And then cut the almonds with a knife into small pieces. Drain the water from the raisins, dry them on a towel and roll in flour.
I never use dry yeast to make cakes. ONLY LIVE!!! You can solve this problem yourself.
Warm the milk a little, dissolve the yeast in it. Add 500 g flour, mix well. Put in a warm place. Cover with a towel. The dough should double in size (it will take about 30 minutes). Easter cake dough is very capricious, it absolutely cannot stand drafts and it is very difficult to find a warm place for it in a cold apartment. If your heating has already been turned off and the apartment is cool, there is a way out: an oven. It is necessary to heat it up to 35-40 * C maximum and keep the dough in it until it approaches. This is the most The best way! My dough has tripled in 30 minutes.
While our dough is growing up, we must have time to separate the whites from the yolks. Grind the yolks with sugar and vanilla sugar white. Whisk egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff.
Our dough is ready, it has grown, literally swollen.
Add crushed yolks to it and mix.
Then add the softened butter and mix again.
Lastly, add the beaten egg whites and mix gently again.
Now we need to sift flour into our chic mass, this must be done in parts, kneading the dough each time. More flour may be needed, depending on the quality of the flour and the size of the eggs.
The amount of flour that is indicated, in my opinion, was clearly not enough. I sifted the flour on the table and dumped the semi-liquid dough onto it. Constantly dipping my hands in flour, I began to knead the dough from the edges to the middle. It was terribly sticky to the table and hands and I had to add flour. But I didn’t get too carried away and hammered the dough with flour. As soon as the dough began to lag behind the table and hands a little, I stopped kneading.
Let the dough stick a little more, but enough is enough.
The dough was runny. It is soft, alive... When you take it on your hand, it literally flows to the other hand... it lives, breathes...
This dough should be placed in a large saucepan, lightly sprinkled with flour and sent back to a warm oven. Let the dough rise well.
It took me 50 minutes to do this. Remove the dough from the oven, add raisins, candied fruit and almonds to it. I strongly recommend not to grind the almonds in a blender, but to cut them into pieces on a plank with a knife.
Knead the dough well and send it back to the warm oven to rise.
After 20 minutes the dough has doubled in size! Remove the dough from the oven, and the oven itself - ATTENTION! - turn on 100 * C!
While the dough is rising, prepare the molds. Lightly oil the bottom and cover with a circle of lightly oiled parchment.
DO NOT LUBRICATE the sides of the molds with oil!!!
Dump the dough on the table, with a knife divide it into parts, approximately according to the number of forms. I made half the norm and prepared 5 forms. Gently and very gently roll each piece of dough in your hands, giving it the shape of a ball and then carefully lower it into the mold. Put the forms on a baking sheet and cover with a napkin. After 10-15 minutes, the dough doubled in size and I sent it to the oven, heated to 100 * C.
Bake cookies for 10 minutes. Then increase the temperature in the oven to 180-190 * C and bake until cooked, that is, until a dry toothpick. For a small form it took 25 minutes, large forms were baked for 35-40 minutes. Look at your oven. The dough should be applied to 1/3 of the height of the form. On the left is the form in which the dough was put. On the right is a form in which almost 1/2 of the volume was placed. The dough has risen with a cap above the edges of the form.
Remove the finished cakes from the oven and let stand on the table for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the glaze. I make a glaze based on lemon juice and powdered sugar. You can use any other recipe, you can even use store-bought ones like Dr. Oetker's, they have a great frosting! When the icing is ready, you need to run a narrow knife along the walls and shake out the Easter cakes on your hand. They are unusually light, tender, airy, so you need to act very carefully. Cover hot cakes with icing and decorate. These are extraordinary Easter cakes, absolutely amazing, tender, airy!!!
Just a song, not a recipe. Cooking on it was a pleasure, just bliss!!! I cooked half of the portion and regretted that I did not cook the full one.
This is an unusual cake, absolutely amazing, tender, airy!!! And, most importantly, on the third day only the outer crust dried up, and the crumb remained as airy and tender as on the first day. An angel for your meal!!!
This recipe is part of the "Cooking Together - Cooking Week" campaign. Discussion cooking on the forum -
Working with yeast dough is always a mystery and a bit of magic, and even preparing Easter cakes will require the hostess not only to strictly observe all proportions and sequence, but also quite a lot of patience and physical effort.
To get started, prepare everything you need for the sacrament. Measure everything necessary products, let the flour, eggs and butter heat up until room temperature. Sift the flour 2-3 times - this is a must! Also prepare candied fruits, raisins, dried fruits and nuts in advance: cut candied fruits into cubes of no more than 5 mm, wash and dry the raisins or pour wine, rum or cognac, if the recipe requires it, thoroughly rinse and chop the dried fruits, chop the nuts into large crumbs.
Separate conversation about forms. Easter cakes can be prepared in special forms, perhaps even silicone, but most often they use jars from under canned mushrooms, pineapples or peaches, only the volume of jars should be at least 800-900 ml. In small jars, nice cakes are obtained that can be presented to children, but when baking, be sure to make sure that they do not dry out. Rinse the jars thoroughly, grease the inside with vegetable oil and heat in the oven. An oil film forms on the walls. Lay white oiled paper on the bottom and walls of the jars, and cut out the bottom a little more and wrap the edges on the walls - the cake, even if it burns, can be easily removed from the mold.
The dough for Easter cakes is prepared in a well-heated kitchen, without drafts. The dough for Easter cakes is prepared according to a certain scheme. There are certain general stages of preparation that are not always described in recipes, especially modern ones, so it is better to list them:
. The closing of the steam.
. Fermentation of dough (sometimes during the night).
. Whipping egg whites and rubbing the yolks with sugar.
. kneading liquid dough from dough, yolks, proteins and butter, kneading until smooth and adding flour.
. Proofing.
. Kneading.
. Proofing.
. Adding an additional amount of oil, flavorings (nuts, candied fruit, dried pitted cherries, raisins, etc.), as well as aromatics (vanilla, cardamom, cinnamon, cognac, etc.) to the dough and thoroughly kneading.
. Proofing.
. Breakdown of forms.
Compliance with this sequence and the obligatory repeated parting is a guarantee of success in baking Easter cakes. Easter cake dough contains a lot of muffins and additives, so quite a lot of yeast is added to it - that's why it's so important that they work properly. As a result, it turns out that the dough for Easter cakes is suitable 4-5 times. Recipes in which the dough is kneaded immediately and “walked” 2-3 times usually contain a small amount of ingredients. And if you decide to use sourdough dough for Easter cakes, compliance with the above kneading and proofing scheme is strictly necessary.
There are many recipes for baking Easter cakes. Ancient and modern, complex and simpler, with traditional additions and inspired by the realities of today - different, but always delicious.
