    It sounds like you’ve gotten a lot done during this genius hour! It’s great to hear that you plan to continue with your blanket project after this genius hour is over. Which item that you’ve made was your favorite?

    I honestly could not even imagine knitting so you are already put on a pedestal in my mind. I saw what you were doing the other day and it's crazy good, keep it going.

I decided I wanted to learn how to knit for my second Genius Hour. When I started it was not as easy as I thought it was going to be. My knitting supplies had two pairs of knitting needles and came with a small book. I used the book to begin learning the basic steps and I struggled using the pictures in the book at first. It took me quite awhile, but once I figured it out it was super easy. I started by learning how to cast on a stitch, which is pretty simple. Casting on is making stitches onto one of your needles,so you have a row of stitches to start knitting with. These are how my two ways of casting on turned out. There are two different ways to knit, a knit stitch and a purl stitch, this is the other thing that I tried this week. I practiced knitting stitches, and then a practiced purling stitches. A purl stitch is basically a reversed knit stitch. In the picture on the left is my attempt on doing the knit stitch. The picture on my right was supposed to be two rows of knit s...

This week I wanted to make fondue, which is typically a three course meal of melted cheese, broth, and melted chocolate. My family doesn't usually like the broth course, which you boil broth and let the meat cook in there. So instead of boiling chicken in broth, my family will pan fry or grill chicken. The first course, which is cheese, you can use many different recipes. The recipes usually contain some sort of cheese, alcohol, and garlic or something to give it more flavor. We decided to use, colby jack and pepper jack cheese, a dry white wine, and some cornstarch to make the cheese thicker when you melt it. To add some flavor, I added some garlic and lemon juice. We like to dip bread, tortilla chips, and green apples into our cheese. I used my cutting skills from one of the past weeks to cube the bread, and I also practiced grating with the cheese. With your final results, you want it to turn out stringy so you can dip it easiest. It took a second to get the cheese right, beca...

This week I decided to try and learn different techniques to cook eggs. There are many different ways to prepare eggs such as, boiled, scrambled, an omelet, sunny side up, over easy, poached, basted, and deviled. The techniques that I decided to use were scrambled, sunny side up, over easy, poached, and an omelet. Also, when I was done cooking the eggs I had my dad taste them to tell me if they were correct. The first technique that I tried was scrambled, so I had to put a pad of butter into the pan with the eggs, then stir and when it is almost cooked add a dash of milk. When I did this technique I only cooked one egg, so when I put it in the pan it cooked really fast, which I then over mixed them because it was cooking faster than I thought it was going to. The pieces of egg ended up being a little smaller, so next time I would use lower heat or more eggs and mix less, so I would end up with bigger pieces. I made a sunny side up egg next. To make these kind of eggs, you crack ...
