March 21, Thursday.
Today is a special holiday. Nauryz is a New Year celebration of Eastern peoples. In the morning I smell delicious baursaks. Mother cooks the traditional Nauryz Kozhe of seven ingredients: water, salt, meat, rice, kurt, airan and wheat. I always look forward to Nauryz Kozhe. Grandma says if you eat a bowl of Kozhe you will be full for the rest of the year. Grandma put on a national dress and a kimeshek. In the evening we have guests. We sit at a large dastarkhan.
