Double Chocolate Italian Brownies :P

This week we made our second dish in home ec . Oriana and I decided to make double chocolate italian brownies . I had a lot of ingredients to bring in as the brownies needed a lot of chocolate in them :P We decided to add marshmallows and alomonds to the brownies to make them more interesting :) they took a bit longer to cook then we thought and the burnt a bit but they still tasted really nice when we scraped off the burnt bits and put some ' betty crocker chocolate fudge icing ' on them . They were so nice that i think i might make them againn myself at home someday yum yum

At the moment we are trying to decide on our second dish to make in home ec . This time we are going to make a desert so we are thinking about making double chocolate italian brownies yummm :P we are doing a lot of things next week :) we are going on a history trip and we have an english workshop too . Its valentines day next week ( not that it realii matters in an all-girls school ) also we are having one to one meetings with the guidance counsellers about our subject options for the leaving cert :O so it will be a busy week next week :)

Calzone :P

On tuesday in home ec myself and oriana made calzone . It took me ages to make the dough while oriana made the sauce . Eventually the dough was ready so we rolled it out with a rolling pin and knead the dough into four pizza shapes . then we put the sauce on two of the pizzaz . Then i grated some cheese and we put that on too. We then put on the topping of our choice . We decided to make two seperate calzone beacuse i do not eat meat and orian does :) i put a load of peppers on mine and oriana put chorizo and chicken tikka on hers . They took longer to make then we thought so we didint have time to cook them in class . so ms mcA cooked them for us when emnet were cooking and we collected them at lunch time . Mine tasted amazing :O so ill definatly want to make calzone againn :)

School Days :P

Myself and Oriana are home ec partners so we are trying to decide on three dishes to make in home ec . We are cooking next tuesday and since we are doing italy and the first dish we are making is calzone which is basically just like a pizza that is inside out so that should be interesitng to make : ) we are thinking of making some pasta dish as our second dish but we still have to decide what dessert we are going to make . maybe tiramisu ?

Today a lady from the kildare enterprise board came in to talk to us about our minicompany projects : ) There are a lot of really good ideas and a lot of people have there products already made and some people are even selling already . She was very impressed with our schools inovation for this years mini company competition . Unfortunatly our group can-do have run into problems with raising money for manufactering our cand-do stopper : ( In music we are preparing a song for the schools music night , the song is called 'mama said' . As i mentioned in my last blog we are making a clock in technology at the moment which is good fun . :)

More Projects :P

We missed a lot of spanish classes because of trips away and double pe , rugby practice but at the moment we are doing spanish projects that we have to present to the class . Mine is on the music and dance of spain which i find very interesting ,i am a bit nervous to present but hopefully i wont do too bad . We have to rate eachother on the content , use of spanish language , presentaion visual and presenting skills :) We also have a new project to do in history too , it is on any topic we choose from any period of history so that should be interesting to do . We are also doing a new project in home ec where we have to choose a country and make 3 dishes from that countyr , i chose italy cuz it has yummy food :P we are also making clocks in tech :) ttyl x

Ty stuff :)

Hello :) we have done a lot of things since coming back after the xmaas holidays . All of Ty went to the RDS to the BT young scientist exibition .Even though we all enetered the competition only one group in amina got through :D It was great fun and we got a load of free stuff but we learned a lot at the same time because the projects were very interesting so everyone enjoyed it :) At the moment we are trying to decide on our subject choices for leaving cert , its difficult but i think i nearly know what i want to choose . We are getting special classes to help us decide which is very helpful . Hopefully i will make the right choice and get all the subjects i want because it will be a bit tricky if i dont :(
