Hi guys! (This is an American greeting).

Today it's raining. This is not a surprise, I heard it on the news: they said: cloudy and rainy on Sunday.

We started a new book and the first units are all about food. You already knew the word Breakfast.

I often ask you at the beginning of the lessons: What do you usually have for breakfast?

The other two meals are lunch and dinner ( and supper).

Some students in this group only have coffee with milk for breakfast. Nothing to eat. I can's understand how they manage to go through the day.

Anyway, we studied the names of

Fruits: bananas, oranges, apples, pears, watermelon, peaches, apricots, strawberries, cherries, lemons.

Vegetables:  carrots, tomatoes, lettuce, onions, garlic, broccoli, cucumbers, potatoes, mushrooms, green beans, green peas, beans.

Meats: beef - steak-, lamb, chicken, pork. 

Dairy products: milk, butter, cheese, yogurt, ice-cream.

Other foods: cereal, rice, bread, biscuits, jam, eggs, sugar, salt, oil, coffee, tea.

Cooked or prepared foods:  soup, salad, hamburgers, hot dogs, omelette ( made with eggs), fries, baked potatoes.

I am sure there are things I've forgotten. But I hope this little summary is helpful.

We practiced talking about things we like, things we love and things we hate.
Students only hate a couple of things. Somebody hates cucumbers and somebody hates broccoli.
And they love many other things, such as fries and watermelon.

We had mentioned it before, but we studied using some and any for countable and uncountable nouns.
Examples;
Do we have any potatoes?
Yes, we do. But we don't have any eggs.

What do you need? There is some rice in the cupboard and some tomatoes in the fridge.

Get ready to say what you had for lunch next Tuesday. See you then.
