Today I have a simple recipe great for cold weather days.

This is a sweet and salty dish that reminded my Mom of Chinese food, like sweet and sour. Also, despite its numerous ingredients, it is actually pretty simple to make. Here is what you
need:
  • 1 pound fully cooked smoked sausage, cut into 1/2 inch slices
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 medium green pepper, cut into 1 inch chunks
  • 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 (20 ounce) can unsweetened pineapple chunks, undrained 
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • hot cooked rice
Alright, so first you need drain the pineapple chunks, but keep the juice. Next, cook the sausage, onion, and green pepper together in a skillet (large enough to hold all ingredients) until onion is translucent.

Meanwhile, combine the cornstarch and reserved pineapple juice until smooth. When the meat mixture is ready, add the tomatoes, broth, brown sugar, garlic powder, black pepper, and pineapple chunks into sausage mixture. Bring to a boil and cook uncovered for 5 minutes.

There are so many types of meatloaf recipes out there, handed down from generations, that there is no "right way" to make a meatloaf. This is the recipe Alton Brown gave in his cooking guide in the roasting section. Here are the ingredients you will need:

Dolphins: Smart and Friendly

This is the second magazine article I want to share with you from Let Creation Speak , and this one is called "Dolphins: Smart and Friendly." I love dolphins, so I thought I would share some facts about them through this article. Enjoy!        The sign says "How to Meet the Dolphins. First, don't touch their blowholes. Also, don't put your hand on their heads. Pet them on their sides. Most importantly, if a dolphin offers you a fish, take it. It's a gift of friendship." This sign is posted on a beach called Monkey Mia in Australia. Every day

With Apologies to Robert Frost

I have a class for school called Speech. This is supposed to help me learn how to stand properly while speaking, pronounce words properly, and so on. The most recent section is on how to give meaning and feeling to a  poem when reading one out loud. My teacher, Mrs. Autrey, has been reciting poems to us as examples, and she uses a variety such as happy poems, sad poems, thoughtful and so on. One of them that caught my attention was a funny remake of the famous poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost.   The original is one of my favorite poems, and I have always loved the other poetic works of Robert Frost.
