We`re famous!!
Did you watch the SBC news on Sunday night?
No?
You should have!!
If you had watched the SBC news you would have seen Richard!
And if you have very good eyesight you would have seen Heather, too!
Why?
Richard, Kanae, Bree and Heather were part of the "Great Salt Lake City Day" event at M-Wing on Sunday.
Did you know it's the 50th year that Matsumoto and Salt Lake City have been sister cities?
No?
Neither did I.
I learnt a lot about Salt Lake City on Sunday.
I'm going to make a quiz so you can learn about it, too. :)
But first here's a link to the news piece with Richard in it.
Look out for Heather, too! ;)

more hamburgers
Yes, I'm still thinking about hamburgers. :P
What do you like to put on a hamburger?
I made my daughters hamburgers for dinner tonight.
My oldest daughter complained when she saw her meat pattie in a bread roll.
'That's not a real hamburger. I want rice and no bread.'
Ahhhhhh. 'You want a Japanese hamburg'. :(
There are so many variations on hamburgers.
In Australia we eat an Aussie Burger.
Sesame bun, lettuce, tomato, cheese, hamburger pattie...
No different from Richard right?
Well then we add a slice of ham, a fried egg, a slice of tinned pineapple, and some pickled beetroot.
Sound weird? No way!
If you ever go to Australia you've got to try it.
It's so good.
Maybe even as good as Richard's... ;)
Here's a picture for you.
See how the cheese is turning pink? That's beetroot juice.
Yum!

hamburgers
mmmm hamburgers.
REES ran the First Annual Matsumoto English Summer Camp a couple of weeks ago.
At the end of the camp we gave the campers a survey.
One of the questions was 'what was your favourite meal?'
Over 90% of the campers answered 'hamburgers'.
Or rather 'Richard's special American style hamburgers'.
They were good.
Really good.
A sesame bun with mustard on the top and Richard's secret special sauce on the bottom.
Add lettuce, tomato and fried onion.
Add a huge hamburger patty (another Richard's secret special recipe) topped with melted cheese.
Put the lid on and bite into that yummy goodness.
Feeling hungry?
Like to try one for yourself?
Tell Richard!!
Let's see if we can convince Richard to make burgers for the adult REES students too!

OK, it's me. :)
