October Meeting Summary by Jacqueline T.

In Troop 2440’s second meeting...

We started off by making snack towards our simple meals badge. We made Sushi rolls!!!   

All you need is bread, butter (if you want), your favorite cold cuts, lettuce and shredded  carrots (if you want). Then you roll and you have a sushi roll.

After that, we played a version of Old Maid. We had to make a meal.  We had to have grain,meat,and vegetables. But watch out, you don’t want to get stuck with the Old Maid (candy!!). At the end of the round we showed our meals and we saw who had the best meal and the not so good meal. 

Then at the end, we made our friendship circle, by holding hands and closing our eyes and thinking of something good or something we liked today. That was the end of troop 2440 girl scouts meeting.

What a Blog Is - by Kaya H

A blog is a written document that is done on some type of electronic device.   It goes online for people to read.  It is a way to express your feelings without anybody interrupting you.  It is also a way to share information.   Especially if you are shy in school, or even with your friends, on a blog you don’t have to be scared. 

There are blogs about everything in the universe.   There are blogs about the neighborhood.  There are blogs about being a mom.  There are blogs that tell you how to do something like baking, gardening, knitting, DIY costumes… My mom went to a blog to figure out how to do my costumes for the last two Halloweens.   My cousin in Norway is obsessed with make up and beauty blogs.

Our Girl Scout blog will keep you current on the latest updates of our meetings and planned events.  So far we have gone to plant trees and to a pizza parlor in Staten Island.  

We have also had two meetings, which have been swell.  The last meeting we started to earn our cooking badges.  We made sushi rolls without fish.  I am going to teach you how to make it because that is what blogs are for…

We got one piece of bread, we filled it with our choice of things.  I used 2 pieces of ham. First you squish the bread down then you add the ham and then you start to roll it.  After you roll it you cut it and eat it…presto sushi sandwich.

I hope you liked my blog entry

Best
