'..+* " Summer Fun Book #5 " *+..'


+Tittle of Book ; Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
+Author ; Chris Riddell
+This book has 145 pages. I am now on page 30.
+This week I read 30pages .
+I understand about 88% what i READ.

Two characters are in this story now.
Alice and a white rabbit.
Alice is inquisitive...
White rabbit is hasty...
I cannot find similarity between them.

I think I am similar with Alice than white rabbit, because I'm not in hurry every time.
Alice and I have sevral similarity. The most similar point is that we don't like to study, but we like to know many things. In this story, sometime Alice uses her knowledges to solve problems. I also use my knowledge when I write essay or answer questions. But our knowledge is not perfect, so we cannot fine the best answer....

'..+* " I am... " *+..'

Do I like routine...? um...No, I do not. It's because, my feeling changes everyday and everytime, so if I decide to do something as a routine, it won't be routine or habit. The next day, I will forget what I decide. For example, sometime I try to keep a diary, and buy a note, BUT...every time I give up about for a week. I tryed somithing, not just diary, such as reading, cooking healthy meal, making lunch, walking, diet... I never keep.

I don't know why I cannot keep them. I'm "MIKKABOZU"!! This is Japanese famous phrase about who cannot keep anything for long term. In English, "I can stick ro nithing." It's not good.www

Oh, I have just one waht I 'm keeping. Every morning or night, I try exercise to strengthen my muscle. I like training. I like to change my body. I noticed!! I can keep what I like things. I don't like diary, diet, health meal....so I couldn't keep them~~

I like routine about only my favorite realm.

" Prolong the life of your produce "
-The proper strage can keep fruit, veggies and herbs fresh and flavorful-


When we get gruit, vegetables and herbs, we should select carefully and store maximize their lingevity. Joe Hardiman is a produce merchandiser. He is choosy about what he buys and stores. And also, he has some good idea to keep them fresh, for example, he keeps banana and apples keep away from other fruit, in fridge, wraps lettuce, chard and other leafed vegetables in dry paper towels to absorb excess moisture....


In this article, I found some useful informations; how to keep fresh fruit, veggies, and herbs... I think using towels and excess moisture is good idea!! We can try in our fridge.
My favorite veggies are tomatos and pumpkins.
