CULTURE BACKGROUND 文化背景：
In the older Russia Easter was a day of great feasting. On long tables were placed roasted pig and sausages and sweet tarts 12. And there was especially the Paskha of cheese and the Koulich, the latter a bread so delicate that pillows were put about the pan in which the dough was rising .so that it would not fall; anxious housewives kept husbands with heavy boots and flicking 13 children out of the kitchen until the Koulich was safely out of the oven. Deep in the top of this cake were formed the letters "X V", the initials of the words meaning "Christ is risen."
