Home Economics Jam Drops

This week in Home Economics we cooked Jam Drops. 

Ingredients: Flour, Sugar, Eggs, Jam, Vanilla Essence.

1. First we preheated the oven to 180 degrees fan bake.

2. Then we made the mixture and rolled them up into little balls.

3. After that we pushed our thumb into the little balls.

4. Finally we put them in the oven for about 15 minutes.

When they came out of the oven we put them on the heating rack and waited for them to cool down before we gave them a taste test.

The maji will come for you, he warned. The same words every time he forced us to spar. When they do, you must be prepared.
This could be compared to Harry Potter because they both have magic

In the holidays I used a Phone for electricity. Phones use electricity because they need to connect to the internet and the screens need electricity.
