Fruit cake for Christmas

Ariel: One day,in Novermber, my mummy, my brother, Atticus and me was making a fruit cake.

Atticus: It was not Christmas time, but it was near Chirstmas. My sister, Ariel, my mother and me made a fruit cake for Christmas.


How to make a fruit cake

1. Get a big metal cake making bowl.

2. Wash the bowl and dry it.



(My little brother was watching me drying the bowl)

3. You need the following:

Plain Flour


Butter




Eggs



Jams




A jar of fruits




These are the flavors for the cake but we are calling them magic potions.







4. We put the butter into the bowl and stirred the butter until it was nice and soft. Then we added in the magic potion.











5. We mixed the flour, baking powder, salts and other magic potion together.



Atticus: I added in the eggs and stirred and stirred. It was massy but quite fun because I always seperate the egg yolk from the egg white. I poked a hole in the egg and turned it around and let the egg white fell out instead of the egg yolk.















Ariel: I was shaking the flour into the fruit cake mixture.



















I took the fruit out of the jar and put it into the bowl. Atticus sprinkled the flour onto the fruit. After that, we added to the fruit cake mixture.

















Ariel :The most enjoyable part was licking the spoong after making the fruit cake.

Welcome to our blog.

My name is Atticus and this is my sister Ariel. We are almost like a pair of twins. We are only eleven months apart.


We do not go to school but stay at home to study.


My daddy and mummy call this home-schooling.

Cool.

Who are we?
