Spaghetti

Hi everyone!

Today I’m going to write about one of my favorite things in the world: Spaghetti.
Spaghetti is the plural form of the Italian word spaghetto, which is a diminutive of spago, meaning "thin string" or "twine”.

Spaghetti is a long, thin and  circular pasta of Italian origin. Spaghetti is made of flour and water. Italian dried spaghetti is made from durum wheat semolina, but outside of Italy it may be made with other kinds of flour.

Spaghetti is popular in most of the countries gastronomy, not only in the Italian one. Spaghetti is frequently served with tomato sauce, which may contain herbs, like oregano and basil, and olive oil, meat, or vegetables. Other spaghetti preparations include using Bolognese sauce, alfredo and carbonara. Grated hard cheeses, such as Pecorino Romano, Parmesan and Grana Padano, are often added. In Chile Spaghetti is commonly served  using Bolognese sauce or Alfredo sauce, but sure that exist more preparations than that.

I’d like Spaghetti because I’d love the mixture of flavours of the Pasta and the tomato sauce, the smell of the cheese and the olive oil, it’s so yummy!

If you don’t know how to cook Spaghetti, here I left you a tutorial video

Photos from the past

Hello Classmates

Today I’m going to write about one of my favorite familiar photograph. This photo was taken by my dad, and shows my Mom, my sister and me after a day in the beach of Santo Domingo, fifth region. This was in the summer of 1998.

 When I was a little girl, my family like a lot go to the beach on summer, it was something  that we usually do on that time to take advantage of summer days. This photo shows that, the times when we all together go to the beach for have a good time. Because that I like this photo, it remembers me when I was little and we had a great time with family, we were all together.  

Now is different, my sister is far away in Central America, my brother is living in Valparaíso and I’m here in Santiago. My mother is the unique that still lives on the beach.Fortunately, Santiago isn’t so far from Santo Domingo and I can go on weekend.

Watchmen

I have never been interested in superheroes , I know that exist Superman or Spiderman but I never really like them until now. About a month ago, I was zapping on tv and I found a movie that seemed to be a good movie. It was a superheroes’ movie, the characters used costumes and fighted against the evil like all superheroes.The movie was Watchmen, and is and adaptation of the comic book of the same name by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. 

Watchmen is a story about superheroes, and through them portray, analyze and criticize contemporary western society and the socio-political system in which limited. Criticize the concept of superhero, presents a alternative story where superheroes arise in the 1940's and 1960's, helping the United States to win the Vietnam war.

The story revolves around six characters principally - in the image - Laurel Juspeczyk, Dr.Manhattan, Dan Dreiberg, The Comedian, Adrian Veidt, Rorscharch, respectively.

I think this is a great comic, because is different of other comics, makes an excellent critique of the development of the Cold War. I recommend you read this comic, if you want to do it you can find it on internet, its easy to do it. and if you don't like to read, you can see the 2009 movie adaptation.

Here is the trailer of the movie 

I hope you like it!
