Henry's Birthday

Friday 27 March 

Today it is day 2 of the level four lockdown. Yesterday it was Henry’s 2nd birthday. We had a good breakfast. We had hashbrowns, bacon and baked beans and Henry even had it all. Mum, Kalie and I  spent all morning putting the cake together, but mum did all the work, we just decorated the cake and ate lollies. By lunchtime the cake was ready to eat so we had a sandwich and then opened presents and then finally had cake.  Henry’s cake was a train. He had m&m’s, chocolate eggs and fruit puffs in the carriages. For Henry’s presents, he got two utes with trailers and a book from Suzanne, he got a card from Kalie and I, he got a mat for eating on from Mum and dad and got a puzzle from nana Brenda and poppa Mike.

Cooking dinner!

Thursday 26 March 

For the last two nights, I have been in charge of cooking dinner. On Tuesday night I cooked nachos for dinner, with a little bit of help from Mum on when to do things. I cut the onion, fried the mince, put the chips and the mince on the plates, I put in the sauce and everyone ate it and liked it, except Kalie, she didn’t like the mince because she thought it was spicy. On Wednesday night, Mum taught me how to make a curry, (chicken tikka masala). It was a bit hard but also a little bit easy. Mum chopped up the chicken for me, but I did everything else. Check out my photos of both of my meals.
