Main Star - cook a meal

For This Main Star I Made some YUMMY pita Bread Eggplant (aubergine), beetroot sauce, Salad(including lettuce, tomato, lemon, cheese and avocado's), Moroccan Lamb and hummus

IT WAS DELICOUS but I hated the eggplant, beetroot sauce and hummus

Here are some pictures

Main Star - Own choice

For This Main Star I learnt how to Mow lawns
At the moment I am saving up some pocket money for a game I like (Sims 4)
So ... this helps with pocket money as well my parents thinks I should mow lawns for other people and only for $4.99

Now to the experience
It took 3 Quarters of an hour to do the front lawn and up the back without going behind the house
I missed gaps and stopped for drinks  1,000,000 time's
Dad said "I look like a drunk mower" in a *DEEP VOICE*

Main Star - Christmas in Sweden


In Sweden, 24 December is the highlight of Christmas. School children are on holiday, as well as most parents. After enjoying the abundant Christmas smorgasbord(I don't know what this means Erh no search results), everyone is waiting for that special knock on the door, which means that that Santa Claus has finally arrived with the presents.

Christmas presents are under the lighted tree, candles shine brightly and the smorgasbord (or smörgåsbord, as it’s written in Swedish) has been prepared with all the classic dishes: Christmas ham, pork sausage, an egg and anchovy mixture (gubbröra), herring salad, pickled herring, home-made liver pâté, wort-flavoured rye bread (vörtbröd), potatoes and a special fish dish, lutfisk. The ham is first boiled, then painted and glazed with a mixture of egg, breadcrumbs and mustard. Lutfisk is dried ling or sathe soaked in water and lye to swell before it is cooked.

Main Star - do something kind


For This main star I went carolling with the scout group on the 20th of November.

We sang
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
We wish you a merry Christmas
little drummer boy
Santa clause is coming to town
12 days of Christmas
and a few more.

The places we visited were
Kowhai manor
Dixon house

Some of the groups had made cards and cake for them.

Main Star - Find a poem and the author

Golden Ticket
By Roald Dahl
 
I never thought my life could be
Anything but catastrophe
But suddenly I begin to see
A bit of good luck for me


'Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden twinkle in my eye


I never had a chance to shine
Never a happy song to sing
But suddenly half the world is mine
What an amazing thing


'Cause I've got a golden ticket
It's ours, Charlie
I've got a golden sun up in the sky


I never thought I'd see the day
When I would face the world and say
Good morning, look at the sun
I never thought that I would be
Slap in the lap of luxury'
Cause I'd have said it couldn't be done
But it can be done


I never dreamed that I would climb
Over the moon in ecstasy
But nevertheless, it's there that I'm
Shortly about to be





'Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden chance to make my way
And with a golden ticket, it's a golden day


Good morning, look at the sun'
Cause I'd have said it couldn't be done
But it can be done


I never dreamed that I would climb
Over the moon in ecstasy
But nevertheless, it's there that I'm
Shortly about to be


'Cause I've got a golden ticket'
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden chance to make my way
And with a golden ticket, it's a golden day
