The essence of cooking lies in the heating of the cheese( melted) or chocolate. Here you can fantasize and choose: you can leave cheese in the same composition, or you can add your favorite spices, some greens( coriander, dill, garlic), nutmeg, etc. Caramel and whipped cream are more suitable for chocolate. Pieces of bread( ham, meat) are dipped in cheese and eaten in such a way. For chocolate it is better to pick fruits( both dry and sun dried, or even fresh).The main thing is that the melted mass is constantly in a hot state. Eating such delicacies can be turned into a real fun: for example, the one who fell a piece, should tell an anecdote, or draw a miniature( the others guess), or kiss the person sitting next to it. There are many options. In addition, if you do not have a fondue kit, you can easily use a small saucepan and forks. Pajamas Party. A real family holiday, invented, probably, by the Americans.

• Farewell to Failures. This rite came to us from Colombia and the places of South America. In its homeland, it is called "Ano Nuevo".Make a dummy of any shape( for example, in the form of a ball) made of paper. On a separate sheet, let each list the failures and mistakes that occurred in the outgoing year. Collect the leaves and place them in this dummy. And at midnight you will go out into the street and burn the personification of the negative. Let him go after the past year!

• Cake for good luck. This tradition is Greek. The day before the celebration, the hostess bakes a cake, putting a coin into the kneaded dough. Anyone who finds this coin in his piece of pie can count on luck next year. In cooking, let the children participate. Try to notice the place where the coin is invested and give a piece to the child. By the way, if you have more than one child, you can put( secretly, of course) the right amount of coins, and later, when each of the children finds a cherished talisman in their piece, picture the surprise: after all, the coin was one!. .
