Crepes

What is your favorite kind of food?
Mine is, well, I don’t really know what my favorite food is. Food is just to good to choose one favorite. I do have some food I like a little more than others, but more than eating food, I like to cook one of my favorite things to cook is crepes. I love cooking crepes because they aren’t to hard to make, they don’t make to many dishes (so I don’t have to wash as many dishes afterwards), and I have the recipe memorized. Oh, on the note of the recipe why don’t I tell you how to make crepes.

The recipe for crepes:

1 cup of flour
1 egg
1 1/2 cups milk

The steps to making crepes are:

First you need to mix all the ingredients together then when there are no more lumps of batter (this is very important) bore some batter on to a pan the cook for 30 sec. or until you are able to flip it then cook the other side till golden then repeat that step until you are out of batter. Then you can add any topping you like!

Enjoy!

The Best Place To Visit Is…

This is the sign for Forbidden Plateau

This is the sign for Forbidden Plateau it says Wood Mountain Ski Park.

Forbidden Plateau!

I love Forbidden Plateau.  It is a nice place, it’s not too big but it is a great sledding hill.  I personally have gone up Forbidden Plateau over six times this winter and I think were going up again!

The snow is really high on Forbidden plateau this year, and it is good snow fluffy to!

There is a lot of things you can do on the hill, my favorite is sledding.   Forbidden Plateau has some really great sled runs. Some other things you can do there are snow ball fights, cross country skiing, and anything to do with snow, besides downhill skiing (the ground is a little to level so you would go a little too slow.)

I guess I forgot to point out that I only listed things to do on the winter and although the winter is a blast, it is beautiful in the summer.   In the summer you can go for hikes, go feed the Whiskey Jack’s, and there are even more things like well any thing really.

So if ever visit the Comox Valley, you should definitely check out Forbidden Plateau!

Oh, and you should click on this link to read The legend of Forbidden Plateau. (please don’t let the legend turn you off from visiting Forbidden Plateau.)

Easter Greetings From The Ukrainian

Have you ever seen a egg that is bright, beautiful, and detailed?
Yes of course you have, you make them yourself, they’re Easter eggs.
But I am not talking about any normal Easter egg. Oh no I am talking about Pysanky Easter eggs.

This egg is done by a profesional.

This egg is done by a professional.

The colors of Pysanky eggs are yellow, green, brown well you can use any color but not all colors have meaning.

The meanings are:

White- Purity, innocence and birth

Red- Happiness, life, hope, passion and the sun

Green- Spring new growth and hope

Light Blue- The sky with its life giving air, good health

Black- Eternity, darkest time before dawn

Brown- Mother Earth

Yellow- Light youth, happiness and the harvest

Purple- Patience and trust

Now that you now the colors and a couple of ideas on how to draw pysanky style, try your own egg and let me now how it went.
