New Year’s Recipe: Easy Meatballs
Hi! It’s Sparky! My mom made another one of Chef Gazpacho’s delicious recipes. These meatballs are so good I ate about 20 and then she told me they are made with grape jelly! Grape jelly??? On meatballs? Who would’ve thought it could taste so good? What you need: - 1 box of store bought frozen meatballs - 2 – 12 oz jars chili sauce - 1 – 32 oz jar grape jelly - An adult assistant to help you with this recipe What you do: In a large pot, have your adult assistant combine chili sauce and grape jelly over medium heat, stirring often until jelly is melted. Add frozen meatballs and simmer for about three hours until meatballs are heated through. Transfer to a serving dish. Forget peanut butter! I have a new favorite partner for grape jelly – meatballs!

The New Year is almost upon us, readers! Today I am interviewing one of Kinzville’s newest residents, local teacher Ms. Stripes, to see what her resolutions are. EM: Ms. Stripes, what changes do you have planned for the New Year. Ms. Stripes: Well, Ella, I’ve been very caught up in planning my lessons and I seem to spend almost all of my free time at the school or at home marking tests. This year I resolve to take more time for myself and learn more about my new hometown, Kinzville. EM: That sounds like a great idea, Ms. Stripes! Ms. Stripes: I know! I want to meet more of the residents of Kinzville and visit all the attractions around here. I want to explore Adventure Park and go mining for gems and play all the games in the Arcade.

Reid, Meet Santakinz
Okay, so since my plan to have Reid’s photo taken with Santakinz didn’t go so well the first time, I had an idea. Every single day I have been reading Reid every Christmas book, showing him every Christmas card, and playing him every Christmas movie that has Santakinz in it so that he’ll get used to Santakinz and we can take this photo without him crying. So far, so good. He seems to enjoy all the Christmas stories and for some reason he’s not scared of a picture of Santakinz. I just hope that when I take him back to the Clubhouse, he can handle the real thing!
