Everything Happens for a Reason... right?
You know how everyone always says “everything happens for a reason?” but no one can ever REALLY pinpoint many examples of it? Or sorta.. weak examples? Well, this really is always the advice that I give, and I truly truly believe that.
We opened our small school in the fall. Since then, things have been sort of slow. We’ve barely made enough money, BUT we’ve always...

Steak Sandwich
Well, we went to stay at a pension on the weekend (like a cabin you can rent that usually has a BBQ). Anyhow, lucky for us, our aunt owns a beef shop, so she gave us some steak! We BBQed them, and they were GREATTT! We didnt have a chance to eat it all, and had one barbequed steak left over to take home. I had to figure out what to do with it, and i got it! Steak Sandwich! I’ve never...

stew!
Well I asked mom if she could make us a meal. She said she didnt know how to make anything. MOM! Then she remembered she could make stew. ASSA! So now I can make stew too! You can adjust the amount, or vegetables, or whatever according to your taste/pan size. You can change the meat too!

Recently, we’ve been going to a great new burger place downtown. honestly, i’ve never eaten hamburgers before because i dont really like the taste of just beef, but after this place, i’m crazy about them! since they started putting onions and mushrooms in the patties, i wanted to figure out some way to make delicious hamburgers at home! So, we made up a recipe. The...
i love
A flower was offered to me, Such a flower as May never bore; But I said, “I’ve a pretty rose-tree”, And I passed the sweet flower o’er. Then I went to my pretty rose-tree, To tend her by day and by night; But my rose turned away with jealousy, And her thorns were my only delight

Pied Beauty
PIED BEAUTY Glory be to God for dappled things— For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow; For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim; Fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches’ wings; Landscape plotted and pieced—fold, fallow, and plough; And all trades, their gear and tackle and trim. All things counter, original, spare, strange; Whatever is fickle, freckled (who knows...
