TGIFRIDAY!

We love Friday's at ClubCharm! Why, you ask? Because Friday's mean Arts and Crafts with Aunty Lani and Yoga with Aunty Karen. Aunty Lani showed the girls how to make Plantation IceTea. It was refreshing and yummy! The girls also put together a cookbook of recipes they have made over the past few months.

Today, we tried something new with out chit chats. We had a guest "Chitchater", one of the Charmlings, Ally. Since Ally love to cook, her topic was "Why we should know how to cook." Some of the suggestions from other Charmlings: to save money, to create character, to eat healthy and no junk, to make money (open a restaurant). Ally did a great job engaging the girls and asked thought provoking questions.

Ally asked the girls to write down some food items they have made. Nomi has made corn pudding, the Maloney sisters have made zucchini canoes, and Mika has made strawberry jello. The girls talked about the food pyramid and the importance of all the food groups. They learned, and were very saddened by the fact, that candy is not a food group, and is in fact bad for you.

Ally's chat was a success! We hope to see other girls talking about and sharing their passions and knowledge!
