Jan 8th, 2011 - If you have been following what I do, then you already know that my parents typically take me to Lowes Build and Grow on Saturdays to build some of their little projects. This week they had the little Game Box. Normally there is a big crowd for this but this morning, it was quite empty. We got the project box and started working. The project was very simple as we only had to hammer a the sides, base and the lid. We were done quickly and we took our patch and certificate. Just as we were about to leave, my friend Arjun and his Dad also came by. This was the first project for 2011 and I am looking forward to many more. I like doing these projects. |

Jan 7th, 2011 - I love going to school but at the same time, I really enjoyed the last few days of 2010. I had a great time since my Dad was home and I got to play with him. Its not often that he is at home for so long. Since it was Christmas, we did some shopping, setup the Christmas tree and decorations. We played a lot of games at home like Monopoly, Scrabble and Uno. We also went out a bit to some museums. Overall it was fun but then today it all came to an end as Dad went back to work and I went back to school. It was great going back to school. My friend Riya was back from her vacation in California and most of other friends returned as well. I was happy to see my teachers, Ms Rumya, Ms Suma and Ms Kalyani back. I got back to my routine of working with numbers, works, painting etc. I guess I have mixed feelings because I am sad the holidays ended but very happy to be back in school. Not sure how my teachers feel ;-) I did a lot of work this week, writing, math, coloring and also you can see my new "My Book of Tools" |

Jan 5th, 2011 - About once every other week, my mother and I bake something. Most of the times we bake cookies or muffins, but today we got a little adventerous and baked Sopapillas. What are Sopapillas you ask? Go check Wikipedia. Ok, A sopapilla is a kind of fried pastry and a type of quick bread served in Argentina, Bolivia Chile, Northern Mexico, New Mexico, Peru, Texas and Uruguay. For the aamchi readers, its a bit like making Buns. We made the dough, then I helped my mother roll it. We cut it up into squared and fried them. While the sopapillas were hot, we topped them with Cinnamon Sugar. They were delicious. We have some dough and plans to cook some more over the weekend. Tonda udda ailey we?? |

Jan 1st, 2011 - 2011 is here, so Hello 2011 and Goodbye 2010. 2010 was a great year for me. I turned 4, went to a new class with my teachers Ms Rumya, Ms Suma and Ms Kalyani. I started swimming and skating lessons. We took a trip to the East Coast and at the end of the year, we bought a new home. Wasn't that exciting?? Well, 2011 is shaping up to be even more exciting and I hope it turns out that way. I am looking forward to the following things in 2011.
2011 is off to a rocking start. I hope it gets better. |
