We move in Our New House!


My Family moved to a new house and everybody was so excited to sleep too! My brother and I was amazed at the house and were very happy and glad. Our  super old house was so old and my aunty had been living there for 29 years and me.. MY WHOLE LIFE!!! My aunty moved in when she was just 2 and we were also sad because there were so many memories while growing up in that old fella house. We never expect to move and our new house is so modern and gigantic!! we were all jubilant.

My family getting free food parcels!

Yesterday we went to Otara to pick up our free food parcels, I was so excited! It was a long drive but we got use to it. When we got to Otara we saw that the line was very long. My aunty's best friend's brother was working there giving out the free parcels.  Waiting in line we were very bored so my aunty played some cool music and recorded me while I was dancing. It took seconds, minutes, and HOURS!! Finally we were the next one to get our food parcels which took a long time. I call my aunty's bestfriend friend aunty because they are very close. Her younger brother came with a clip board, my aunty and him were laughing and talking. He opened our boot and put two heavy boxes and three bags with veges and fruits in it. When we got home we gave one box and bag to my aunty's bestfriend. Our cupboard was so full when we put the food in and we put veges in the fridge and fruits in the basket near our eating table. 

Our family was very happy and we also got more masks.

Fudge Pudding

                                              Fudge Pudding from Mrs Agnew.

At dawn I was shopping for ingredients for a desert called fudge pudding that Mrs Agnew gave us the recipe for. There was a few things to buy because it was a simple desert and I was so excited! My aunty and I went to the supermarket to get the ingredient and the excitement made me so hot I had to take off my super warm jacket I was wearing.

I put some blue gloves and started to grease butter on the casserole. I realised that I put too much butter on the casserole so I got some paper towels and wiped some off. It was super fun to make, following the recipe that Mrs Agnew gave me. When we finished putting all the ingredients in we poured the coffee over the mix that was inside the casserole. As soon as we finished we put the fudge pudding in the oven and put the timer on for 40 minutes. 

We doubled the recipe so we could feed our whole family. The fudge tasted so good and we did whipped cream using the electric beaters. I enjoyed the pudding, it was fantastic and a master piece of mine!



My Auntie braids my hair!

                                 My Auntie braids my hair!!

One night my favourite aunty asked me if she could braid my beautiful hair, but she said it would really hurt! I said "yes" so she started from the top of my hair. The first one was ok but when she did the second one I WAS HURTING IN PAIN!!! It felt like a bully of mine was pulling my hair so HARD that my hair would all come off but, it didn't! A lot of time went past and it felt like ages! finally she finished one side so i looked in the mirror and i was so shocked because it looked so nice and magnificent on me! My aunty asked me if i wanted to braid the other side of my hair. I still said yes and even though it hurt I just wanted to braid my hair. The other side was just like the other side but 10 TIMES WORSE!!! My eyes were teary and red but at least it was almost finished! When I finished I looked 10 times better than I looked before! I was very happy and i show my nana who said it was gorgeous and beautiful! After that I watched a movie with my aunty and went to sleep!
