The recipe for peach pie

I'm cutting up the peaches just as right as I can. The peaches need to be very small to make the peach pie.
I'm making the fluffy mixture.
I'm pouring the peaches into the pie crust. The pie crust came from dough. Mama made the dough.
I'm putting whole milk onto the crisscross crust. Mama sprinkled on the cinnamon sugar.
Sebastian's recipe for peach pie
First, you make the fluffy mixture made with cornstarch and salt and cinnamon and nutmeg. And Domino sugar or brown sugar. I used the Domino white sugar. I thought we had enough peaches to make one hundred peach pieces. How many smithereens of peaches I thought there were: 800. Maybe. First, we cut the peaches up. Then, we needed to mix them with the fluffy mixture. Then, we poured it into the crust. How the other crust got on the top was that the one across you have to put the ones going down picked up a little bit. But don't make them fall apart to ripped! On top of the crisscross part, we put on whole milk and cinnamon sugar. And then you put it in the oven. 850 degrees, I think. I think it needs to bake for 30 minutes. Or less.

A Blue's Clues movie entry

I like Blue's Safari!!!!!!!!! What happened was that they went on a short safari where they helped 3 animals go home to take their baths. The clues were Turquoise (the third clue), carrots (the second clue) and the first clue was a bowl. Blue wanted to put carrots in a bowl and take it to Turquoise. Turquoise is Blue's turtle. The thing exciting was that Turquoise had the right size of carrots chopped up!
"Nurture" was the one with all those clues. And "Animal Behavior" was when they were learning about some animals. It's about animals. It was about lots of animals, such as frogs, crabs and fish, too. I think. No no it's not about fish. Steve being a turkey.
Cafe Blue is a restaurant and there's a title of it, too. The title of it is the title of the video. And there is "Snacktime"-- the second episode. And the first episode is called "Cafe Blue."

Cow Parade Pt. 1: This is about my family and me

This is me waving my flag and jumping with my balloon. My flag came from Mama's sewing machine and her pin. And the balloon came from the parade.
I'm sitting with Daddy and Dorian. I'm in the middle. I'm waiting for the parade to start.
DeeDee's eating a lemon pop. I had some lollipops before. But DeeDee NEVER did. He liked it.
I'm looking at my candy. It came from the throwing candy people. They were in the parade. I got those beads from the parade.
The parade was the best!

Cow Parade Pt. 2: Heifers

Well, pogo sticks are too bouncy! It was kind of in the middle of the beginning. And banners are fun to hold up and flags are fun to wave.
Noah's with a little cowie. Noah works with the cows at a school. The Putney School he works at.
There's a little Turkey Hill cow. It was a BIG Turkey Hill cow.
There's a little person dressed up like a cowie.
There's another little cowie. Or maybe it's the same one. It's driving a tractor pulling another cow that's a toy.
I think I saw 109 cows.

Cow Parade Pt. 3: Strolling with the heifers is just fun. I love heifers!

This is the band. [makes band noises] BBBBBBBBEEEEEERRRRRLLLLLLLLEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRPPPPPPPPP!
The tractors go Whoop whoop whoop whoop whoop with their steam closers. I usually see tractors driving down the street. They're everywhere.
There's a dragon-- fierce and eatable. You can eat him for your lunch. Raw because he's numb.
The wheel is fun to spin on. Colin was on it. The stilts were dangerous.
Daddy's coworkers are kind to Jeremy. They were carrying banners.

Cow Parade Pt. 4: This was the best cow parade ever!

That was very fun to do, but tricky.
That was a very silly car. It was a clown driving in it.
That band made beautiful sounds. Their costumes were silly. They had pirates hats on.
That little horse is beautiful. I love her.
There's our friend Alfred! We also saw him as a Christmas elf.

The melon plants grew to the top!

They are growing all the way to the top!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm touching the cap and the glass. They are good take cared. I was touching the cap to know what it felt like. It felt bumpy and smooth.
I'm putting the melons into the dirt-looking volcano.
I see the melon plants!
My garden's doing well. Lettuce is growing. Sugarsnap peas are growing. And there are Easter egg radishes growing. It could be until two more weeks for it to grow.
Because I'm not wearing a shirt is because I sweated too much. Because I was sweating so much is because I was very hot. The things that made me so hot is because there was a hot, hot, hot, very hot sun.

This story is called "Desert"


I loved it and I was staying there forever. But I didn't want to. It was too gassy. It was the sun's gas. Well, the bad guy flew in an airplane with me and I was sent there. I was sent there because he was too bad for me. He said, "You will stay here forever!" But I said, "No!" I was ended up in a very too hot house. With a fire in a fireplace. I was all alone and I was 72 years old. I got to leave until I was 89. I lived a long time. I had lots of birthdays. I thought it was 89 degrees and it was 89 degrees so I said, "This degree is okay." Because I leaved when I was 89 was because there was a nice lass coming over for a visit and she said, "You can leave now." She came from the desert. She was in a very cold house made with a little bit of ice in an iceplace. To cool her off. Since I was too hot I needed to live with her because my sweats were made of fire. And my mind was made of smoke. It was nice living with her and I loved her. She was 3 years old.

We had a very, very fine and yummy dinner

We were having a very, very fine and yummy dinner because we had a kielbasa. And we had a yummy, yummy steak. I ate one kielbasa and I ate a bit of the steak and I ate the chicken covered with sauce. The special things I had were lemon spritzer and the silver cans were filled with rootbeer. Mimi's in the picture, too.
Dorian's eating a piece of my corn on the cob.
And there's Papa, eating. And Grandma Emily.
DeeDee and Papa are sitting in chairs. They are talking to each other. Where we were was Mimi and Papa's house. They live far away. They live in Jaffrey.
It was a nice Memorial Day and I loved it the best.

The Mt. Wantastiquet was fun

I'm looking all around. And there was a spring. And a spring is something that makes the water get out of things. And it comes out of underground.
There's a salamander. We saw 4 salamanders.
There's a toad. Daddy saw it first. How big it was was 5 inches. [Ed. note: Actually, it was about 1 inch long.] No, I knew it was 5 inches. Mama, it wasn't 1 inch long.
There is a ladyslipper. I love it!

Mt. Wantastiquet climbing is hard-- that's because it was very long

I loved this. I was walking up Mt. Wantastiquet mountain. I went with my Grandma Emily up the mountain. How long it was is 2 miles! And I did it all by myself!
Dorian's riding on Daddy's shoulders. Because he was riding on Daddy's shoulders is because he didn't walk well.
At the top I saw lots of buildings. Those buildings are way through the trees. The town is called Brattleboro!
You know what we can see over here? The river. The river is Mt. Wantastiquet River. [Ed. note: Actually, it's the West River.]
We saw our school. We also saw a cemetery. That black dot is a turkey vulture.

Now we're gonna do the drums

I am playing the drums. I wonder what I am hitting it with? I'm hitting them with my brushes.
I'm playing them with my sticks. And I'm wearing headphones on my head so they're not too loud.
I'm playing them, but it looks like I'm playing them too loud but I'm not.
DeeDee is walking up with my blue drum.

Messy brother

Dorian's covered in paint! Dorian was painting and he got too messed up. But I kept clean.
Dorian is eating cake and he has a very messy hand and a very messy face.
Now Dorian's putting all the chocolate into his hair. And he has chocolate all over his hands and his mouth and on his cup.

This recipe was fun to make but I got sleepy

I'm dropping the bananas into the bowl.
I'm crushing and smashing and hitting the bananas into a wet goo.
I'm pouring the flour into the bowl.
I'm pouring the very fluffy mixture into the very wet mixture.
I'm flattening out the bread that we're making. It's called: banana bread.
Sebastian's recipe for banana bread
You put in the wet mixture made with eggs and bananas and shortnin' shortnin' shortnin' shortnin'. And you put in something sweet, too. The something sweet is--surprise!--Domino sugar. After we've done that, you put in the fluffy mixture made with that Domino sugar. In the fluffy mixture also is some white flour. Daddy was measuring something with the teaspoon which is baking soda. That's all you put in and then you pour it into the wet mixture. And then you pour it into a very big or small pot. Or not so big. Or not so small. And after that you spread it and smooth it out. Then you put the pan into the oven for an hour two times a day. And when it comes out of the oven, surprise again! Banana bread.
