Have you ever wondered what alcohol does to you? Many people say that you just get “drunk”, but what does that mean and are there other side effects of drinking this liquid? I recently learned a ton about alcohol in my science class, so I’m here to answer! Let me explain… Alcohol is basically made…

Healthy Harvest
You may think that ripping kale shreds into a bucket may be boring, but to me, it’s actually quite enjoyable. In my Stewards in Action Class at Woodside Priory, I was given the opportunity to do some vegetable picking (there were too many people doing the other activity). Jill, the person who helps out in…
Help The Hungry
I don’t know if you know this, but one out of ten people don’t have food in the bay area. In my school bulletin, I saw an opportunity to receive a grant from a company called Tutor Corps to fund a project that would help people in my community. I thought that being food insecure…
Julianna’s Big Impact At My School
It might seem weird writing about a person who passed away four days ago, but it’s also meaningful. Julianna, a person I never got to know, seemed like the greatest lunch lady to ever work at a school. Unfortunately, after a hard battle with cancer on Monday, she went on to the next stage of…
Think Before You Drink
Let’s think… Cows are expensive, very expensive. To own (and use) one cow would require a large amount of land, resources, and most of all, water. That’s right, WATER. On average, it takes 1434 gallons of water to get a gallon of milk! That being said, you can probably say every couple of sips from…
How is it Even Possible?
When I watch various food contests on TV and see people finishing off their 70th hot dog, cookie, or chicken wing of the day, I can’t help but think, “How is it even possible?” I mean, it’s hard to think that someone can consume that many calories in 10-20 minutes. Another “gross” fact I think…
Is It Really That Good?
“Ohh, Nate that looks good,” my cousin Christina might say to me on an average day of watching television, but the question is, really? All those food adds you see when waiting for your program to continue typically show items that look extremely appetizing (many fast food restaurants). The thing is, when you actually go…
Crazy in the Cafeteria
Man, these first days in 6th grade at my new school, The Woodside Priory, have been crazy! And guess what, not just crazy in class, crazy in the Cafeteria! That’s right! I have been thinking about this for at least a couple of months ever since I got accepted into my new school. But hey,…
From Food To Fun
Man, I didn’t know how fun it could be put together a 1,000 piece food puzzle… One afternoon in Hawaii, I was looking for my unfinished Lego when I stumbled across this detailed donut puzzle. I have done these types of puzzles before, but not in a long time. Intrigued, I pulled it out and…
You Might as Well Eat an Ice Cream Sundae for Breakfast
Before I say anything, ALOHA! I’m back in Hawaii! This post isn’t about food in Hawaii, but you can expect my next to be about some yummy dinner my grandmother cooked up a couple of days ago. You might be wondering why the title says, “Eat ice cream sundaes for breakfast!” Well, here’s my explanation……
