Поведаю вам интересную историю. Случилось как-то раз все семьёй побывать в гостях у знакомых. Домик их находился на опушке леса. Из-за густых веток деревьев не было видно обитателей леса. Они, наверное, испугались «гостей из провинции». Их избушка оказалась не на курьих ножках, а обычных брёвнышках.
Господи, как же там всё красиво! Божественный кедровый запах, доносящийся от деревянной избы, вскружил нам голову. Мы были очень рады снова очутиться тут. Добродушные, приветливые хозяева широко отворили нам тянувшуюся ввысь векового бора дверь. И тут, как снег на голову, из распахнувшихся дверей повылезали кучерявые головки веселых ребятишек. Это были их дети.
Радостное приветствие продолжалось и внутри избушки. Хозяюшка испекла в печке румяные пирожки с земляникой, что недавно сорвали их ребята возле дома. Его женушка пригласила нас за большой стол, который был усыпан нарядными блюдами.
