Freerice.com


After updating our new Daily Craft Project Blog(http://www.dailycraftprojects.com/, also viewable through the side bar to the right) , I decided that I was board. So then I got onto http://www.freerice.com/ (also accessable through the internet links at the right hand side of this page, along with a few other of my favorite visited web sites. As I have mentioned before, I strongly approve of this web site because, while improving your vocabulary, you are also fighting to end world hunger. Here is how it works: You are given a vocabulary word, you are to pick from 4 choices the synonym of tha word. If you get it correct, then 10 grains of rice are added to the bowl displayed on the right hand corner. After you have filled to bowl up one time then you have fed one person, one meal. HOW NEAT ! ! ! !





Here are some photos from my visit to the site:


This is the bowl. Each time it fills up you have donated 100 grains of rice. It then collects into piles to the right by 100's. At this poinnt I had donated 310 grains of rice.As you continue to play it builds up, very fast. At this point I had dontated 1000 grains of rice.



When this happens all 10 piles of 100 collect up into a 1000 grain pile in the top left hand corner shown below:

In other news today during my usual busy day, a very colorful outfit, along with a very stylish Q-tip head was spotted. If you are a frequent reader then you know exactly who and what I am talking about. This was also spotted yesterday.


Francesca is his usual clueless self. He was walked in on using the bathroom by my aunty. She said HEY, because she did not know he was in there. He thin held his hands up in the air as if he was being caught by the police.


We have not had that much neighbor news. So that means that the new neighbor blog is not doing to well. I guess they can read minds and new there every day lives had started talk.


Wisteria Lane is still the same. All of the local gossipers are still at their best.


Have a great day. Check back daily.

    OK here is my comments on the "book". FUNNNNNNNYYYYYYY!!! And all true. Here is some funny things to add to it.
    TOday Fran came up after sleeping all day because he had a "candy induced stomach ache". WELL... when he got here he was walking like a little old 95 year old man. So I asked him what was the prob and he told me "well you see, I haven't played soccer in 3 years and I had to play yesterday and it hurt my muscles so bad". This is funny because Fran played soccer less than 3 months ago.
    Also please do not forget about the time Fran told me he wants to go in the Army because "I'm pretty good with a gun you know". Funny on multiple levels because he can not walk a straight line without falling down!!!!
    One last thing.....Fran has a bathroom in his room. Well not really but he says he just pees in the corner because his mom and daaaa will not know.
