The Lost Stories

The Lost Stories Is the tenth book in the Rangers Apprentice series written by John Flanagan. The Lost Stories has all the untold stories from the series. There are about five stories. I find the book very interesting because it tells you more about the characters, so when you look back on the previous books you have a different perspective on them. The stories also set you up for the next book and series. I also like that the author writes it from all the characters’ perspective. I would recommend this book for 9-12 year olds.

I have recently tried out the new Yellow Dog Bread Co. The food was very good but the service really needs some work. The person we ordered from got are order wrong so we had to pay extra for what we didn’t want. The food came out really fast though. They also had a good selection because they had vegetarian choices and they had sweet treats . They also need more seating; they only have four tables. If you wan to try it out it is located on 219 East Franklin Street Raleigh, North Carolina 27604.

World Polio Day

DSC_0137

As you might already know, October 24 it is World Polio Day. Polio is a disease that can paralyze your body from the waist down. Even if you think you have no chance of getting it, that is not always correct. Somalia recently got back polio which effected 200 children almost immediately. Shot @ life, UNICEF, me and my family, and everyone with polio ask for you to help eradicate polio from Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Nigeria by donating to shot @ life or any organization that may help. if you would like to learn more visit this website.

Paella in Barcelona, Spain

Paella in Barcelona, Spain

If you’ve had American paella, it’s nothing like the real deal from a small restaurant in downtown Barcelona. My family and I recently went to Spain for a week. The thing I was most excited about was definitely the food. In DC I had a paella that was only okay when you compared it with Spain’s authentic paella. Paella consists of bell peppers rice and seafood. If you would like to make paella, check out this link.
