Dear Pramesh,
We have one week left on our trip to
Plumsted.
We had a plan to go and pick some plums
but the trees were too wet so we got some
plump plums from the shop at the end of
the road.
When we got back from the shop, we had
to prod and press the bell so hard. We think
Dad was playing a prank on us!
Now, we have a plot to trick him too. We
have left him a printout of a Plumsted map
with all of the streets missing!
We will tell you the rest of the plot next
week.

One of the most memorable meals that I have ever eaten was a couple of years ago
when I was sick, well actually, just recovered from sickness. I had digestive
disorder so I could not eat anything but bland porridge for a week; otherwise I
would have vomited constantly. The first couple of days staying at home went just
fine, I had enough to entertain me. In fact, I felt relax because I had time to binge
watch my favorite drama. However, by the end of that week, I could not stand that
meal. I could not even think about it. Fortunately, I was getting better so I could eat
other dishes. My mother made me spaghetti with beef and mushroom which she
knew was my favourite. It was a basic Italian dish that instantly made my mood
improve. It did not take much time and energy to cook though; basically, there
were ground beef, sliced fresh mushrooms, chopped garlic and onions served with
tomato sauce and topped with Parmesan cheese. It tasted like heaven to me. The
ground beef was savoury mixed with a litlle cheesy flavor. My mom homemade
meal was not only appetizing but also nutritious because I was not consuming
protein and fat for a whole week. I tucked into it and even craved for more. This
was a memorable meal thanks to the caring and loving of my mother and
her eagerness to lift my spirits while I was trapped in my house.
