Carrot Soup
Sarah from The Daily English Show shows us how to make carrot soup.
The other day I made some carrot soup.
I put four cups of water in a pot.
Then I added one carrot, half an onion, some ginger, one tablespoon of soy sauce and one tablespoon of olive oil.
I cooked it for twenty minutes.
Then I let it cool down for a few minutes and I put it in the blender.
Then I added three garlic tops and some mochi. My Korean friends gave me this mochi. I think their family sent it to them from Korea.
I cooked it for five more minutes. Then I served it in a bowl and sprinkled some shichimi on top.
It was very tasty.

Potato Stamp Christmas Cards
Sarah from The Daily English Show shows us how to make Potato Stamp Christmas Cards
Potato Stamp Christmas Cards
I decided to make some Christmas cards with a potato stamp.
First I made a stamp out of a potato.
I made a Christmas tree stamp.
I was planning to use this red stamp pad. But it didn’t really work.
Luckily I found some paint. There was nothing in the red tube, so I used green instead.
Then I folded some paper and stamped six trees on each sheet of paper.
When the trees were dry, I drew a picture inside the card and wrote a message.
I coloured the hat and the sign and did the final folding.
Lovely.
Recipe - Apple Crumble Inspired Dessert
Sarah from The Daily English Show explains a recipe
Tonight I made a dessert inspired by apple crumble.
I grated an apple.
And cooked it in a frying pan with a bit of oil, some sugar and some cinammon.
Then I put some of the apple in a bowl and sprinkled muesli on top.
Finally I added a scoop of ice cream.
Mmm. Divine.
