Tortilla Casserole and Cinnamon Chips

Today my mom and I found a few new recipes and I would like to tell you about one we are making tonight. It's called tortilla casserole it looks really good. 





Its Mexican and the dish is constructed  like lasagna, but instead of noodles you would put in tortillas. I personally think it will be a great meal . I hope my two big brothers will like it. Well of course they eat anything so ...... it should be good. It only has 8 ingredients but some of them are water and eggs. It's every day ingredients that you could find in a average American kitchen. 



Also, we are making tortilla chips covered in sugar and cinnamon. On the chips we are going to put whipped cream and pomegranate.I think they will be excellent. As you can see we should have a terrific new meal .

       so we made the  tortilla casserole and it was delicious.  My oldest brother took a bite and came over to give me a kiss for making dinner.  My middle brother ate everything. We can't believe he ate everything. He never eats everything. He was happy we made the tortilla chips with sugar and cinnamon for dessert. That an unexpected treat!

XOXO

My Early Years




My early years were exciting .  It all started in 2003 when I was born.  I live in a little town called Woodruff Corners.  My family includes  my mom, dad and two brothers.  My oldest brother is fifteen and my middle brother is thirteen. When I was little I liked to ride on the tractor with my Dad and to play with our puppy named Libby.  I loved to hug my Mom and I loved birthday cake.



In my family I also have two dogs Libby and Acie.  KitKat is the name of my cat,.  She just had three babies.  One is named Oreo!  He got his name because he is all black with a white spot on his chest. He looks like a yummy Oreo treat! The second is called Tres. She is three colors that is why we named her Tres. Tres is Spanish for the number three. Finally, we have a kitten named Cy. He has a beard and the name came from Si Robertson who has a beard.



I also have the very best friend in the world,.  Her name is Caitlyn.  Caitlyn and I have been best friends for years.  Cait loves to jump in the leaves or into pools too! She is older than me by two years but we love to hang out together.



At my house, we have a pool. The pool has big steps, a diving board and cool pool lights. We love to swim there in the summer. I have been swimming for a long time. Friends love to visit and swim together in the hot weather. 

My babysitter was named Tanya. She had a boy my age named Carter. One time Carter jumped off the bunk bed, hit his eye off of a bed post and then hit the floor. He had a concussion and went to the hospital. He was okay for Carter. Carter also got stuck up on the folded up tread mill and Tanya had to get him off. Then Carter hid behind the couch and ate marshmallows. He was very fun and we are friends. Tanya took me to her store to see her gram. We went MOPS at the church where I made crafts. I miss when we stacked up the couch cushions into a pile and jumped in them.

My first teacher was named Miss Linda. She taught preschool for 3 and 4 year olds. One time Miss Linda had candy at Easter and her husband hid it. I couldn't find my candy bar but when she helped me I found it on the roof.  Every year the class dips their hands into paint and they put those prints on her wall. I wonder if mine is still there. My brothers each had two sets of prints when I went there.

That would be a short story about my early years and why they were exciting.

The Coffee Pot

'


In class we wrote about a coffee pot from a four square. Do you know what a four square is?
We put into it description, how to use it and why we need it. Here is a copy of my four square.


After that we wrote our essay. Mine said:

The Coffee Pot

Almost everyone uses the coffee pot. The coffee gives you so much energy and keeps you going all day long. It's also affordable. The coffee pot lasts long too.


Some changes I would make to the coffee pot would make it faster. It would adjust to the kind of coffee you like. The clean up would be easy. Also, build in an iPod touch. The iPod would make it so that you could control your coffee temperature. It could control the amount of coffee and the flavor.


I would change the appearance. To change the it I would let everyone choose the color or pattern of the coffee pot. Also the pots would have silver trim. The coffee pot would have a glossy finish too.


That would be some things that I would improve and change. The coffee pot was an awesome invention of technology.  This would be my assignment on technology.
