OK so there's this book series and it's totally awesome. I'm not actually sure that it is called the Mother-Daughter Book Club(series), but that's what it's about - a mother-daughter book club! It's so so good! The main character daughters are Jess, a girl who lives on a farm and is super smart, Emma, a girl who wants to be an author when she grows up, Megan, a girl who wants/is already a fashion designer, and Cassidy, a girl who plays a bunch of sports. Also there is a girl who is really mean named Becca. The main character moms are Mrs. Delaney(Jess's mom), who ran off to New York to be in a soap opera in the first book but then came back, Mrs. Hawthorne, (Emma's mom), who is a librarian and is pretty normal, Mrs. Wong,(Megan's mom), who is really embarrassing and is obsessed with a bunch of things like saving the earth and only eating all-natural things like tofu and vegan everything, and last, Mrs. Sloane(Cassidy's mom), who's first name is Clementine and was a model but then stopped and started her own cooking show. Also Becca's mom is Mrs. Chadwick,who is a librarian and is really mean and embarrassing and no one likes her. The book takes place in Concord, Massachusetts. I've read the first and second book, and am halfway through the third. I totally recommend them.
In the first one they read Little Women, by Louisa May Alcott
In the second one, they read Anne of Green Gables and the rest of the series, by Lucy Maud Montgomery
In the third one, they read Daddy Long Legs, by Jean Webster
Apparently, in the fourth book they read Pride and Prejudice, by Jane Austen
Apparently, in the fifth book the read the Betsy-Tacy series, by Maud Hart Lovelace

Phobias
pho·bi·a
[foh-bee-uh]noun
Hi, so I'm reading this book called School of Fear, and it's about these kids with phobias and they go to a summer school where this crazy woman apparently will cure their phobias. That inspired me to look up different phobias and it is SO COOL! OK so here's my favorite phobias.
There's the...
Fear of flowers(I know, right?), which is anthrophobia,
The fear of numbers, which is arithmophobia,
The fear of snow, which is chionophobia,
The fear of colors, which is chromophobia
The fear of purple, (so sad) which is phorphyrophobia,
and last but not least, my favorite, phobophobia, which is...*drum roll please*.......... THE FEAR OF PHOBIAS!

I'm Back!
Hi people! So I'm very very sorry that I haven't posted, like, anything for the past long time... but now I'm back! So Halloween kind of happened but it was cancelled because there was a major power outage. We didn't have power for about one and a half days because of snow. In late October! What's up with that? We got 14 INCHES. But tonight(actually I'm leaving in less than a half-hour)we will have the rescheduled Halloween trick-or-treat thing. I am going as a little old lady! I have a weird pink and white spotted button up shirt, a weird tan, white and black plaid skirt, a weird green suit/jacket, a scarf thing that I will tie around my head, and granny glasses that are pretty awesome. And... that's pretty much it! I will get back to you guys soon...

Harvest Feast
So Friday night we had this thing called the Harvest Feast at our school. We have a garden and a gardening program and stuff like that, so we eat food that we grow and each class from Kindergarten to 6th Grade makes a dish. My class(6th Grade)made kale chips, which are really good. It's just kale with oil and salt that is cooked in the oven for I don't know how long.
A couple kids got to serve random samples of things to people waiting in line. I got to serve samples of mini kiwis. They're REALLY GOOD! If you have no idea what mini kiwis are, they are mini kiwis! No, well, they kind of are, I mean they are, but... So they are about the size of... maybe a grape, and you eat them like a grape- with the peels and everything. They taste exactly like kiwi and the inside looks like kiwi, too. There was garlic bread and homemade pizza and, uh... pickles, and... soup, and stuff like that. Oh, and while we were eating there was a rainbow!
After I ate I went outside. It was kind of raining, but it had pretty much cleared up. There was a gigantic puddle with wood chips in it that was up to your ankles or higher, and it was fun. Then a couple girls and I played kickball. Since there weren't that many people, we pretty much had two people on each team, so it was really fun to be kicking, but it was really boring to play outfield. Eventually we all had to leave so....... yeah.

Upcoming Survey...
Ok so I got some really good suggestions for the upcoming survey that I will put on my blog. All of them were good, but some of my favorites were:
Favorite season...
Favorite way to eat an egg...
Favorite color...
Favorite candy bar...
Favorite Harry Potter book character...
and Favorite kind of weather.
I could do a survey to say which survey I should do, but I find that a bit more extreme than necessary. I also could just choose my favorite, but I think that you guys should tell me what you think... Tell your family! Tell your friends! Tell your pets! Tell anyone you can think of! Ok that's it... I think... Bye!

Ice Cream Survey
Okay, here are the results of the ice cream survey, which was 'Which one of the following is your favorite kind of ice cream?' Hope you voted!
Mint chocolate chip had 5 votes/50%,
Vanilla had 3 votes/30%,
Chocolate had 2 votes/20%,
