Moms love us. Moms love to eat jam

When Valentina Vasilyevna Kolesnikova retired, she could not even imagine that she would soon be preparing this traditional Russian delicacy on a scale much larger than at home. A naturally active and active person who had worked as a doctor all her life, she suddenly found herself alone, without something she loved, and became sad. This often happens when a person leaves work due to age: the children have grown up and left the parental nest, friends have their own worries and families, and the only connection with colleagues is professional activity. Her daughter Anastasia found a solution to the problem: she suggested that her mother cook homemade jam for sale.

Anastasia herself is the organizer of the “Local Food” project, which represents the interests of entrepreneurs who want to open their own business in the field of gastronomy. The food here is not the faceless packages on supermarket shelves, but something that is prepared in small batches from local ingredients and made with soul and love. Local Food organizes fairs where everyone can try and buy all kinds of goodies, as well as communicate with those who made them. Burgers, deli meats, candies and sweets self made, drinks - there’s so much to be found in such markets! Delicious homemade jam is a completely competitive product; you definitely can’t buy it in a store, Anastasia and her friends, whom she treated to her mother’s delicacy, were convinced of this. The name “Mom Loves You” did not appear by chance. Valentina Vasilievna wrote these words to her daughter when she went to study in Moscow. Like any other mother, it seemed to her that the child was malnourished in a foreign city, so parcels were sent to the capital with homemade pickles, jams and preparations, and in each - a letter ending with this very phrase: “Mom loves you.”

This delicacy helped our heroine to feel the taste of life again and find partners and like-minded people. The first batch of the product was sold in 2014, and since then Valentina Vasilievna’s jam has been a permanent participant in all Local Food markets. She not only cooks it, but also sells it herself and communicates with customers. She admits that at first it was scary to stand behind the counter, because she had never done this. But gradually she got used to it, and now she likes it. Initially, the jam was made according to old home recipes, but then the range expanded, and recipes with new ingredients appeared: pumpkin, lemon, orange, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger. Then new mothers also joined the “Mom Loves You” project: when information about the project appeared on the Internet, people began writing to Anastasia asking to participate in it. Now two other mothers are making jam together with Valentina Vasilyevna: one is a heating engineer by training, the other is an aircraft engineer. Mothers try to use
Use seasonal products and do not use preservatives. Raw materials are taken from our own gardens and dachas. The jam must be “trained”, boiled a little for testing: after all, the raw materials are different, and this affects the result. And they even issued a declaration of conformity for the product.

Despite the fact that mothers live in different cities, they communicate a lot: they need to find new recipes, and discuss what worked and what didn’t, and just chat and ask how things are going. Valentina Vasilievna argues that the value of the project lies in communication, although, of course, this is an increase in pension.

Now you can buy jam at Local Food markets and in the online store. And mothers also want to get into the cafe segment to introduce their brand to more people. Expanding is not very easy: the project is social and will not work in places where rental rates are high. Valentina Vasilievna says that it would be great if more mothers came to the project. But the problem is that it can be difficult for older people to decide on this, even if they have the desire and strength. Questions immediately arise: can I do it? will it work? Therefore, in this kind of matter, the help of relatives is very important, who can come up with initiative and support. The more retired mothers can find something they like, the calmer and happier the family will be. This will only make any jam tastier. Eat a spoonful and you will feel as if your mother hugged you by the shoulders and whispered: “Mom loves you.”

Funny poems about mom

To grow properly

I need to get a mom

Mom is a very useful animal,

You won't find anything better!

If you want to eat -

All you have to do is scream

Mom comes running right away

He will offer boobs.

It's simple and easy in boobs

Milk appears.

You just have to suck it in -

It flows like a river straight into your mouth!

If you have eaten a lot,

But you don’t want to sleep yet -

So that mom doesn't get bored,

You can scream again.

Mom will take you in her arms,

Mom will sing a song

Mom will tell you a fairy tale

He will dance and bring the ball!

If you still want to sleep,

It's better to lie next to your mother -

Let him sleep a little too,

You need to take care of your mother.

Snuggle up to the warm side,

Sweet - sweet stretch,

Before going to bed, that mom is nearby,

Be sure to make sure.

If you open your eyes

And you will see - there is no mother,

You will, of course, make a roar,

You'll go broke.

She will come running

Dripping milk.

Mom is a very domestic animal,

Doesn't go far.

Do you want to be the happiest?

So listen to my advice:

Get a mom soon -

There is no better mother beast!

Moms love to eat jam

Mothers love to eat jam,

Sitting in the kitchen in the dark,

Sing and dance on Sunday

If no one sees them.

Mothers love to measure puddles,

Finding them in the hot summer,

Forgetting the door keys

And then hang around somewhere.

Moms love to sleep on Saturday

And sculpt elephants out of snow,

And skip work

And in winter you can run without a hat.

Moms love to chew candy

And ride the tram,

But they are silent about it.

Nobody knows... (Gerasimova D)

Present

I decided to cook compote

On my mother's birthday,

I took raisins, nuts, honey,

A kilogram of jam.

I put everything in the pan,

Stirred, poured water,

I put it on the stove

And he turned up the fire.

To make it tastier,

I won't regret anything!

Two carrots, onion, banana,

Cucumber, glass of flour,

Everything was boiling, steam was swirling...

Finally, the compote is cooked!

I took the pan to my mother:

- Happy birthday, mommy!

Mom was very surprised

Laughed, admired,

I poured compote for her -

Let him try it soon!

Mom drank a little

And... she coughed into her palm,

And then she said sadly:

- Miracle cabbage soup! Thank you! Tasty! (Druzhinina M)

*****************

Kind heart

I once brought a puppy into the house,

Homeless tramp

To feed him a little,

Poor hungry guy.

Well, - said mom, - let him

He'll live a little

There is such sadness in his eyes!

There will be a spoon of soup...

I found it in the yard later

The kitten is barely alive,

I also brought it into the house,

Mom said again:

Well, well, she said, let him

He'll live a little

There is such sadness in his eyes!

Find a spoon of porridge...

I found a chick under the nest,

Crows hovered above him,

I hid it in a tomboy's hat,

We came home with him.

Well, well, said mom, let him

He'll live a little

There is such sadness in his eyes!

There will be a crumb of bread...

One day I brought a hedgehog

Snake and turtle

And the hare ran into our door,

Probably out of fear.

Mom said: - Let them live

The apartment is so wonderful

And if you make room, here

And we will find a place! (Mikhail Sadovsky)

Velcro-why

Mom loves and regrets.

Mom understands.

My mom can do everything

He knows everything in the world!

— Why do wasps bite?

I'm asking directly.

And to ALL my questions

Mom answers.

Tell me where from the sky

It snows in winter.

Why a loaf of bread

Is it baked from flour?

Why does the dog bark?

What will you dream about?

Why does the icicle melt?

And your eyelashes tremble?

Why is there a cloud in the sky?

Is there a lawn in the forest?

I'M VELCRO-WHY

AND SHE IS A KNOW-ALL! (Tatiana Bokova)

Poems about mom are funny

Mom is sleeping, she's tired...

Let's quickly pull off the blanket,

Let's paint mom's belly

(hey, you have a belly the size of half a watermelon!)

Maybe we can paint the walls?

I'm an awesome artist!

A blanket with flowers!

Quiet, don't disturb mom!

Bring the scissors quickly

Cut it evenly!

We train quickly

Fine motor skills!

Mom is sleeping, she's tired...

It's chilly without a blanket!

We will cover mom with a fur coat!

Sorry, the lining is kind of rough...

Did you put the scissors away, bro?

No? Are you cutting a coupon in your savings book?...

Sleep, mommy, sleep, dear!

We're quiet! Don't interfere!

I'm thinking... How should I be with her -

With this woman dear, beloved, close...

How to change her character -

To not be such a “radish”?!!

Well, yesterday I crawled secretly to the socket,

I thought that was it, my dream had come true!

Figurines! Like the jack-in-the-box

My woman appeared.

She pulled me away and sternly scolded me...

But I almost succeeded!..

In general, brothers, it became so offensive..

I didn’t want to cry, but I had to!

Even though I felt bad at heart,

I suddenly realized that happiness could still be there!

(My woman by some miracle

I forgot to close the door to the bathroom).

I'm crawling headlong towards my cherished dream,

I pick up speed as I go.

My dear friend! Toilet brush!

Wait a bit! I'm coming!!!

Here it is! A miracle has happened in the world!

The brush is like a rod in my hands!

I look at my friend with admiration

With a gentle smile on your lips.

I was ready to kiss my friend

But suddenly from around the corner

With a cry of “ah-yay-yay” and fright

My woman appeared.

Well, who are you so agile, mom?

My happiness was fleeting...

Well, why did you take the brush?

And stepped on the throat of the song?!!

I'm crying. What can I do?!!

I've already broken it twice...

She'll have to sweat a lot

To calm my nerves!

I danced a jig and a lambada -

He pretended to get it.

I was distracted (which was what I needed).

My goal is a garbage can!

I'm only determined to win -

I can't survive the third mistake...

It definitely needs to be before lunch

Make at least one dream come true!

Mom went to buy herself

a brand new fur coat,

and openwork linen,

and a skirt for going out,

and favorite perfume,

and a necklace on the neck,

- well, what comes to mind

from haberdashery...

I barely made it home

dragging packages.

They were lying in them - my God! —

sword, two pistols,

and hockey skates

and a soccer ball...

Because she has

I have a favorite boy!

Thoughts of a child...

I woke up, mom was sleeping.

And the sun smiles on us

He looks through the blinds.

I'll have to crawl to my mom

And grab her by the nose,

Otherwise he won’t wake up for a long time -

So, you have to wake him up.

“Mom, get up urgently,

We have a lot of things to do -

After all, I woke you up at night

Only eight times."

Mom immediately fed

I forgot to take off my diaper

And put it in the crib

Play with rattles.

How can I not get too excited?

There's nothing to miss

And then mom wash her face

I was about to go.

I let you wash your face,

Just brush your teeth here!

Well, and breakfast, I guess.

You'll have to eat here too.

Cook, mom, take me with you

Be sure to take it!

And hold with one hand,

And cook another lunch.

They dress, put on shoes -

We're going for a walk.

It's just in vain that they pump me up -

There's no way I'm going to sleep!

Oh, where am I? Oh, in a stroller.

And I’m already screaming with all my might.

Your fairy tales will not help -

I want to be held in your arms.

I'm interested in the hands

So much new stuff!

And it’s somehow cramped in the stroller,

And nothing is visible.

We've been walking for three hours, it's boring...

Isn't it time for us to go home?

And daddy’s hands hurt,

Dad is so weak.

Placed on the tummy

They piled up the rattles.

I just don't care about them,

Mom, you haven’t sung yet!

Mom will sing and dance for me,

Will spin like a spinning top,

And she will recite poems.

Why didn’t you become an artist?

I see a new pacifier.

Maybe I should play with her?

Okay, mom, take a break,

I'll digress. For about five minutes.

So as not to waste time,

For mommy's soul

Something to do - quickly iron

Romper and hats.

I just love my mom

I try to be nearby.

I forget about it

Only when I'm swimming.

At night I sang everything I knew,

And she rocked as best she could.

Somehow mommy is tired

And she lay down with me.

How else to fight sleep

I can't imagine. I'm falling asleep...

Good night! I'll wake you up in an hour... !!

My sister Lina and I

They were scratching their heads:

What about the holiday -Women's Day-

Give it to us for mom?

And we decided: since we are home

(We're in quarantine)

General cleaning

We'll spend it in the apartment.

They took a bucket and rags with her,

We tried our best:

The dust on the shelves was wiped off,

The trash was swept into the corner.

Even though Lina and I are small,

She and I washed the floors.

We haven't forgotten anything:

Dust was wiped here and there,

And your beautiful dolls

They were seated.

We worked, we are tired,

Sit down to rest...

And raspberry jam

My sister and I ate

Me and Lina from a spoon -

Ate a little at a time!

When mommy came

She understood everything immediately

That's why I smiled

And she threw up her hands,

And then me and Lina

She took me to the bathroom to wash.

It’s okay that my sister and I

And in jam and in dust,

But we are on Women's Day

They helped my mother a lot!

Mom said: “Boil

We need water to

Kill harmful microbes in it.”

I won't drink tea anymore -

There are dead germs in there!

My mom became plump

He says he is expecting a baby.

Who will understand them, adults,

Who is waiting for whom, from where?

Mom sat me down next to her

And I was terribly surprised:

She's almost a year old

My sister lives in my stomach.

My sister knows everything about us

When the radio plays

Our fairy tale before bed

He hears it in his house.

She's small, baby

He'll grow a little more,

He will push mom in the side with his foot,

So, he will come to us soon.

Poem about a pregnant mother)

So that mom doesn't be sad,

I haven’t forgotten about the child,

Kick mommy good

Along the stomach or below.

Mom will feel better immediately

Mom will smile tenderly

And the child's wishes,

Mom will hear everything right away.

If you hit the stomach for a long time -

Mom will buy chocolate

Or even eat condensed milk,

If the baby really needs it.

And leaves the stuffy office,

Turn the music down...

You move more actively -

Mom will definitely hear you.

Don't let her sleep at night,

Let him get used to it right away,

Let him look for a place within himself,

Where your knock doesn't reach.

You are a long-awaited baby,

Try to kick daddy too

And a dog, a brother, a cat,

If they put their paws on you.

Let them understand right away

Who is the boss in their family?

The cutest, the best,

The sweetest and most desirable.

WHO IS IN MOMMY'S BELLY?

Something strange has happened!

Something happened to mom!

Her belly is growing

Like a mother hippo!

Maybe mom is sick?

Maybe she even ate something!

Or an embarrassment happened to her:

The belly became like a watermelon!

There is no limit to surprise:

Mom eats pieces of chalk

And a candy with a lollipop

Eats a cucumber

Why happy dad!

Shouldn't you call a doctor?

We won’t even have time to gasp:

Mom might burst loudly!

But the whole family laughs

And doesn't listen to me

They say: the day will come

Everything will pass by itself!

Really! “Is it that simple?”

SOON IT WILL BE TOO LATE!

Look at your belly

Someone already lives there!

These are the funny and cool ones. With an adequate amount of humor and very easy to understand. We can safely say that each poem here is a moment captured in life, put on paper by the authors using simple words and pen.

The mother of Anastasia Kolesnikova, the organizer of City Food Markets in Moscow, found herself making jam, and her daughter helped her.

[:rsame:]

The usual list of things to do in retirement, in addition to watching television series, knitting socks and weeding beds, also includes making jam. A doctor from Orenburg, Valentina Kolesnikova, having retired, took this seriously: now she makes jam for sale.

Note in the parcel

Valentina Kolesnikova is 61 years old. She is a physician by training and until her retirement she held the position of chief sanitary doctor at the Orenburg railway transport.

The family had a dacha and a garden, and Valentina Vasilievna made jam all her life - apple, currant, strawberry, apricot and branded jam, from apples with chokeberry. When her daughter Nastya was going to Moscow at the age of 17, Valentina Vasilievna was against it, but gave in and then from time to time sent her her jam by train.

“There was always a letter in the bag, at the end of which there was the same phrase: “Mom loves you,” Nastya recalls.

Anastasia Kolesnikova / Personal page on Facebook

Last year, Valentina Vasilievna’s life changed. Her husband died and she retired. And unexpectedly, I was left alone - my friends were still working, and I was the only child in Moscow.

By the way, the daughter is in last years I asked my mother to send her jam more often: Nastya’s many friends loved it, and it turned out that my mother’s jars of apple and strawberry were an excellent gift.

Here it must be said that Anastasia Kolesnikova is known in Moscow as the organizer of city food markets. She noticed long ago that it doesn’t matter in stores with delicious jam – not with an incomprehensible sweet mass, but with the kind that your mother or grandmother makes.

And when Valentina Vasilyevna retired, Nastya invited her to make jam not only for her and her friends, but also for everyone who lacks jam in their lives, “like in childhood,” for sale. She came up with the name for her mother’s future business herself: “Mom Loves You.”

“Probably, over the years, my love for my mother has become sharper,” laughs Valentina Vasilyevna. - This always happens. How is it with young people? I am this, I am that, I am myself. And then nostalgia for home appears. On the first label for the jam that Nastenka showed me, there was a house with a chimney and smoke...

“I think Nastya knew that I couldn’t just sit, read, knit.” – Valentina Vasilievna continues. “She saw retired people and suspected that the transition to the state of a pensioner would not be very comfortable for me. I was a leader for 30 years. I needed something to keep me busy.

Pumpkin with ginger

In January, Valentina Vasilievna broke her leg. After the operation, he still can’t walk without support, but that’s not a reason not to make jam. Yesterday I cooked three liters of orange, today – the same amount of pumpkin, all with ginger.

Previously, Valentina Vasilievna didn’t even know that you can also make jam from pumpkin / Elena Strebkova

Kolesnikova started using pumpkin quite recently, but now it’s a hit and her new signature jam. And the kitchen turned into an experimental laboratory.

“I’ve never even tried this before,” she says. - Well, what is pumpkin when there are strawberries, raspberries, apples, plums? Then Nastya gave me a book, and there was a recipe for pumpkin jam. It turned out delicious! True, I remade it - now there are still citrus fruits and ginger. Nobody knew about him before, but now many people love him.

In addition to pumpkin, Valentina Vasilvna also makes other, quite unusual types of jam:

– I also make green tomatoes with ginger. We once made jam from them with my mother, I had to remember. Or physalis - I turned the jam from it into a sauce, adding ginger and red pepper.

[:rsame:]

Valentina Vasilievna was provided with pumpkin by friends and neighbors who have their own dachas. It will last for a long time, but citrus fruits, oranges and lemons, have to be bought.

“Expensive,” she sighs. – Now it has become generally unprofitable to cook from citrus fruits. Probably, we need to think about seasonal jam - what has grown, we can cook from it: plums have ripened - from plums, apricots have appeared, apples - from them, with an eye to the future.

Labels, jars, points of sale - Valentina Kolesnikova’s daughter took charge of all this at first. Mom was only involved in making jam, which, by all accounts, was not a trivial matter - it took many hours, or even many days. But it was not in vain that she worked for so many years as a sanitary doctor.

Valentina Vasilievna tested all her jam in the laboratory - in Nastya’s words, “for everything that is possible.” As a result, it now has a certificate of conformity Customs Union for 8 varieties of your product. This jam can officially be sold not only in food markets, but also in regular stores.

Anyone can join the “Mom Loves You” project / Elena Strebkova

A 250-gram jar costs 300 rubles. Markets are held every month, and Valentina Vasilievna stands there with her jam herself - she says it was a surprise to sell interesting thing:

– When you cook and talk about your jam, it’s pleasant for both you and people. They taste it and ask: how do you do it, and what do you add to it? Sometimes we manage to sell 10 jars in a day, sometimes 50 - it’s unpredictable. No profit yet.

Valentina Vasilievna thinks that she could make money from her jam in city cafes:

– This would be a 7-8 thousand rubles increase in pension. But this will happen no earlier than in two years. And this is not an end in itself, of course. I also want to travel and meet relatives. Jam has been a hobby and I hope it will remain so.

What Pushkin loved

Despite the fact that the project was conceived as a family project - by a daughter for her mother - it is social. Valentina Vasilievna wants other mothers to take part in it, who, with retirement, have a lot of free time and have not lost the desire to make jam.

The second participant, Lyubov Butyakova from the Vladimir region, was found last year and is now making her signature types of jam for the project - plum with cinnamon, orange-carrot and kiwi with lime. She is the same age as Kolesnikova, a pediatrician by training, and Valentina Vasilievna jokes about this:

- For now we have such a medical cabal.

Usually it’s not the mothers themselves who write to Kolesnikov, but their daughters—they learn about the project either at food markets or in in social networks.

– Children are more active, they bother their mothers: you have delicious jam, come on! – says Valentina Vasilievna. – This happened to another mother, from Yaroslavl region, we are now discussing cooperation. She makes jam from strawberries, apricots and plums. A classic version, but everyone turns out the same jam differently.

Nastya came up with the name for her mother’s future business herself - “Mom Loves You” / Elena Strebkova

Perhaps another participant will appear:

– The fourth mother – she makes cherry and banana jam. They brought jam from pine cones– interesting, but very specific. We can refuse a specific jam, but we don’t refuse people - if something is wrong, we only ask to change the technology and are ready to try again.

At the end of December, Valentina Vasilievna wrote a plan for the coming year - her daughter forced her. She wants to find a mother who is a historian or an expert on Russian literature who could make Pushkin’s favorite jam – cherry.

Also, try making jam with honey, which some clients have asked for, and with fructose for those who can’t have sugar. And besides this, negotiate with several cafes to supply them with at least 30 jars per month.

And be sure to invite other retired mothers to the “staff.” After all, she is not the only one who loves her daughter and makes jam. All mothers do this.

If your mother, grandmother or you yourself are a pensioner, make delicious jam and want to participate in the “Mom Loves You” project, you can write a letter to Valentina Vasilievna at: [email protected].

Having retired, they do not sit on a bench, but cook delicious jam under our own brand. Pensioner Valentina Kolesnikova prepared about 700 jars of jam in six months. She sells the preparations online and at food fairs under the brand “ Mom loves you" Thanks to this activity, Valentina Kolesnikova feels in demand, truly needed and useful. RETIRED. Project " Mom loves you" appeared last year. Then Valentina Kolesnikova’s husband died. This coincided with his retirement and dismissal from the post of chief sanitary doctor of Orenburg. " I thought I would knit hats and mittens“- admits Kolesnikova. But instead, her daughter Anastasia, the creator of an organization for aspiring gastro-entrepreneurs, “ Local Food", came up with the project " Mom loves you" She offered to make homemade jam and sell it. Valentina Kolesnikova agreed and moved to Moscow. Before this, the daughter asked her mother to make jam, which she gave to her friends on New Year. I received positive feedback from friends. Anastasia began to study the market. “I was surprised that most of the jam in stores is sugar syrup, which is filled with berries and fruits. The difference in taste with a homemade product is colossal,” says the girl. For the brand, Nastya Kolesnikova chose the phrase that her mother always wrote to her in notes included in parcels: “ Mom loves you" She received them when she went to study in Moscow. Range. Now under the brand " Mom loves you» sell different types of jam and onion sauce. Photo from the archive of Anastasia KOLESNIKOVA MOMS UNITE. In Moscow, Valentina Kolesnikova prepares jam according to home recipes. But he loves to experiment. This is how pumpkin jam with ginger, orange, lemon and cardamom appeared. On social networks, Nastya talked about the jam. Everyone who wanted their mothers to join the project began writing to her. But in the end they took only one mother - Lyubov Butyakova from Aleksandrov ( Vladimir region). Thanks to her, the range expanded: there were plum jam with cinnamon, citrus with crusts, carrot with orange, zucchini with lemon, kiwi and lime. The partners have issued declarations of conformity (see help). This gives the right to sell jam in stores. Women work at home, but constantly call each other. If they receive large orders, such as before the New Year, they come to the workshop " Local Food"and they cook there. 300 rubles the cost of a 250 gram jar of jam " Mom loves you" Of this amount, 200 rubles goes to pay my mother. From 50 to 150 cans manages to sell during two days of food fairs. Accordingly, the mother who made the jam receives from 10 to 30 thousand rubles. PROCESS. Jam is made from seasonal products. In winter it is made from pumpkin, ginger and citrus fruits. They will cook from apples and berries in summer and autumn. The products are packaged in 250 gram jars. They became one of the main expense items at the first stage. They spent about 20 thousand rubles. The remaining investments in the project are the purchase of ingredients. The jam can be ordered online or purchased at monthly food fairs. Valentina Kolesnikova and Lyubov Butyakova plan to expand production, but not at the expense of quality. They don't want to add preservatives to the jam. To cook only from fresh fruits and increase volumes, the project needs more mothers. Then, Valentina Kolesnikova is sure, the jam will have a real taste and, most importantly, the main ingredient - the love of a caring mother. Reference. What you need to make jam 1. Register as individual entrepreneur by contacting tax office and a pension fund. 2. Send scanned copies statutory documents to an expert company that has state accreditation. Send a covering letter in which the manufacturer requests to issue a declaration of conformity for the products. 3. Send one sample of all products to a licensed laboratory. 4. Pay for the declaration and research protocols (about 25 thousand rubles for everything). 5. Receive declarations in about a month. Now you can sell your products through stores. Join the project "
