Food Blog

Food With Grandma

When I was in Greece last year, I wanted to spend more time with my grandmother, so I went to her house to spend the day with her. I brought dough from the corner bakery and set off walking to her house. When I got there she let me in and we started making tiganopsomo. For those of you who don't know  what that is, tiganopsomo is a type of fried dough and it tastes amazing! To make it we put the dough onto the frying pan with some olive oil and fried them up!
I remember my mouth watering as we made the tiganopsomo I couldn't wait to eat it. We made 5 of them and drizzled them with honey. I almost ate all of them but I remembered to save some for the rest of my family. When I got home my sisters wanted some but I only had one left and they were pretty upset all I said was  "Hey, you snooze you loose!"

Blog About Anything

Blog about anything.
First I should probably explain to you that I didn't choose to create this blog. Well I mean obviously I made it, but it was an assignment from my 8th grade English teacher. We had to create a blog and she gave us weekly blog posts which, of course, I did last minute. But then this week all of a sudden my teacher says create a blog about anything. Like how am I supposed to create a blog by myself when you've been giving us ideas for the past month! I don't know what to do! But then I got an idea... why not write a blog, About anything? Better yet why not write a blog about everything. So yay pat myself on the back. I did it ! Maybe you can comment some good blog ideas cause I don't have any. Until the next blog. ( about food!)

Movie Review

Movie Review
I'm reviewing a movie called "October Sky" which is actually an anagram for "Rocket Boys." Cool right? At least I think it's cool. It's probably not that cool. So "October sky'' is about a boy named Homer who is in high school in a small mining town near the Appalachian Mountains. His dad basically owns the mine, and wants his sons to take over. The only way out of becoming a coal miner was a football scholarship. Homer tried to get onto the team like his brother Jim, but he pretty much sucks at sports. Good thing he becomes a rocket geek! He just didn't know it yet. After seeing the Russian satellite, Sputnik in the sky, Homer decides he doesn't want to mine coal, he wants to be a rocket scientist! Go Homer! So he recruits his best friends, Roy Lee and O'Dell, and along with the high school weirdo Quentin, they go off the overcome a series of obstacles that may just make the idea of mining coal disappear. Overall this movie was really good and I enjoyed watching it. I highly recommend it.

2016

It's finally 2016!! Let's Celebrate!!! Face it 2105 sucked...sooo......yeah. My new years resolutions are to get good grades. It's been my resolution forever and I still can't seem to get them up. :\   I also want to improve my scores in gymnastics. I have a meet coming up so I should be able to see how much I improved. Getting good grades would be awesome but..... ain't nobody got time for that! Just kidding. Grades are top priority in my house. I also want to start drawing more. My parents recently bought me these really cool markers, and i feel bad I haven't used them for awhile. Those are all my resolutions. What are yours?

Perfect Gift

Perfect Gift

If I could get the perfect gift it would be to get my grandmother to come to America for Christmas. My grandma lives in Greece but she lives alone and the only time i get to see her is when I go to Greece over the summer, so I miss her for the rest of the year. She doesn't like planes but hopefully we can convince her to come soon.
