The Day. The Day is coming very soon. 

Hi people, Leo here. You probably want to know what I 'm talking about when I say The Day, Well, I mean the last day of school. The last day of school is always the best feeling. But the second last day of school is great too because the last day is a really just a long speech day assembly but the second last day of school is a very fun day. Either way I'm looking forward to both. The holidays are so close - just two and half weeks away I am so excited. My family and I will be going to Bermagui. Maybe you have read one of my past columns that talks about Bermagui. It's a great place to be. Until then, it's just more waiting. But I won't be waiting long, not long indeed.

Until next time

Hi people, today's column is all about the day I felt I nearly died, well when I say 'the day' I meant it was just on Sunday evening. I thought It would be a good idea to take a drink from one of those little single serve milk pods but boy, was that a bad idea. Normally I would swallow the milk and carry on but this time I swallowed the milk and a little bit of plastic that you use to pull the top off as well. Yep, that went down the hatch. Lucky I didn't choke and I didn't need to go to the hospital but then again it was a fairly small piece of plastic but still big enough to get my mum and me really worked up. So, next time I go to tack a sip from one of those milk pods I will think ''do I really want to do this?'' first.

Until next time

What you need: 2 potatoes, 1 carrot  , 2 grated zucchinis, small tin of corn kernels, 1 onion, 1/2 cup self-raising flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup chopped parsley ,3 eggs, separated, 2 tablespoons olive oil
Step 1: Peel potatoes and carrot. Grate into a bowl. Add zucchini, corn, onion, flour, salt, parsley and egg yolks into a bowl. Stir to combine.
Step 2: Place egg whites into a bowl and beat until stiff peaks form. Fold through vegetable mixture.
Step 3: Heat a large pan over medium heat. Add a little oil. Add 1/3 cup of the mixture and cook for 5 minutes. Cook 4 at a time. Turn and cook for a further 5-8 minutes. Repeat.
Serve with green salad and sweet chili sauce.
Yum.

Until next time
