weekend lunch




 
 
I made butternut squash soup.
First we peeled the shallots then cut them into thin slices.
Then my mum cut up the butternut squash into cubes.
Then we sautéed the shallots and butternut squash.
After sautéing the shallots and butternut squash we blended the vegetables into a smooth texture.
When we ate the soup with bread it was delicious.  

mash and banger




 
 
I made mash potato.
First we needed to peel the potatoes then cut them in half.
Then we needed to boil the potatoes.
After we boiled the potatoes we put the potatoes in a masher.
After all the potatoes were mashed we added butter and cream.
Then we mixed the potato with the butter and cream.
After mixing we added garlic mayonnaise.
Then we had mash and banger(sausage) for lunch with salad with peanut sauce.
The lunch was delicious.

halloween cake




 



 
 
 
I made a cake.
The cake was orange and chocolate cake.
I only mixed the batter.
Then when the cake was baked we decorated it the next day.
First mummy mixed the icing with blue food coloring.
Then we spreaded the frosting over the cake.
Then we started decorating the cake.
Mummy says the cake needs to be Halloweenish.
Were using jelly beans, aero, pebbles, smarties, jellies and chocolate covered raisins.

They meet a boy called Yo-Yoji who went to Japan for a year because of his dad's work.
The children are in the Treces Society.

halloween decorations




 
 
 
 
Yesterday while my sister went to a party, mummy, Grant and I started putting up decorations.
Mummy put up the sign up while we were doing the bats.
First we got a bat then peeled off the sticky part and pulled the paper across to puff up.
After we did pumpkins.
We had to use a paper clip to make them stick together.
Then we did the ghosts.
We also had to use a paper clip.
Then we got a fake web with fake spiders.
Mummy put the web over the sign.
Then we got the fake spiders and threw them at the web.
My brother threw one at the curtain and it got stuck.
We had fun throwing the spiders.

halloween sweets


 
 
 
Since it is near Halloween  stores our selling treats.
My mum and I went shopping and got screaming sours.
Screaming sours is 5 sour blackcurrant cake bars.
That was my favorite out of the Mr. Kipling cake bar.
Mr. Kipling is a orange flavored cake bar with chocolate chips and some kind of sauce.
Then my mum gave out a cake bar that was cinder toffee which was my favorite out of all the cake bars.
The cinder toffee was a cake bar with cake in the middle and the toffee was on 6top of the cake underneath the chocolate.

smore'd bread


 
 
 
 
I had smore'd bread.
Smore'd bread is mini marshmallows on nutella.
The nutella is on bread.
Then you toast that then when that comes out you have smore'd bread.
My mum added raisins on the bread.
The bread was excellent.
I loved the burnt marshmallow.
The marshmallow was gooey and delicious.
