How to help out environment endure


Everyday people all around the world pollute the environment, we even do it sometimes without noticing, it may be by throwing away a candy wrapping or a soda can, we may not even want to harm our evironment intentionally but we tend to do things just as we see other people do them, so it's become part of our daily behavior. If we want to help our enviroment endure we have to start by realizing whenever we harm it not intentionally, and then try to quit doing such things as possible, good things to keep in mind are recycling, trying not to waste water and not burning garbage.

My mother and father complaints


I don’t like to do anything only wash the dishes and that is enough. How you know householding is difficult? specially for my mom because she cooks, cleans up, vacuums the carpet and washes the clothes so she has to do a lot of things. I suppose that I need to help you but I don’t like it because my brothers don’t like to do anything, besides, they are messy. I get angry with them because my mother doesn’t tell them off, it's only about me me me and then she tells me "you don’t help around the house, don’t listen to my advice" and she always tells me what to do, "Pick up your things", "wash the bedroom" and I don’t like it because she all the time says that, and my father tell us help your mother turn off the tv, when you don’t stay in the bedroom besides he doesn’t like my friends specially boys.

My dream trip



Next summer, I’m going to visit a foreign country: Canada, specially Toronto and Montreal. I’m going to the Niagara Falls. I like to learn about different cultures and languages like French. If I want to go to this country I have to get a passport, visa and I need a lot of money to buy there because probably things are too expensive. I need to make a hotel reservation; I have to get a plane ticket. I’m going to stay there about two weeks so I need to pack a lot of clothes and carry a lot of cash with me. I must take warm clothes because the weather is cold to prevent any flu and I'm going to take with me some medicine.

In our last class of English we learned how to to cook and how to prepare some special recipe… we learned how we can use sequence adverbs… the teacher asked us to bring for the next class a video showing how to make some special food we liked and the food if we could… I made brownies but I couldn’t bring it so I just showed the video..

In going to show you the procedure

Ingredients:
Brownie Ingredients
This recipe calls for:
6 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa
1/4 Cup Butter
1 Cup Sugar
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
1/3 Cup Flour
2 Eggs

Melting and Mixing
First, in a microwavable dish, melt the 1/4 cup of butter (make sure that the butter is completely melted, otherwise it will not mix in with the other ingredients, and you will have to start over). Then stir this into the 6 Tablespoons of Unsweetened Cocoa.
Mixing Brownie Batter
Now, combined with the butter and cocoa--mix in thoroughly:
I Cup Sugar
2 Eggs
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1/3 Cup Flour
1/4 Teaspoon Salt


Brownie Batter
This is how your final batter should look. If you would like to add pecans to your batter, do it now.
Now, pre-heat oven to 325F degrees.

Flouring The Brownie Pan
You will need to flour the baking pan. First, cover the glass dish with Crisco (vegetable fat) or butter. Then, put a few tablespoons of flour or cocoa in the dish, and shake it until the sides and bottom are covered. This will keep the brownies from sticking to the dish.

Pouring Brownie Batter
Pour the brownie batter into the dish.
Cooking and Cooling Brownies
After your oven has preheated to 325F, put the brownies into the oven for 35-40 minutes. Poke your brownies with a toothpick. If the tooth pick comes out clean, your brownies are done! Now, take them out of the oven and let them cool until slightly warm. You are ready to cut and serve.

I want to apologize teach because I couldn't manage to upload my video, but I'd also like to point out that I showed you the video in one of our classes and you saved it in your pen drive.
