Why do I have a food blog?
I would like to talk about restaurants and foods that I experience as I visit different places, because this is one of my favorite things to do. I also want to be a writer, and my mom says that I don’t really have to wait until I grow up.
Write back to me if you want
You can write back to me about your adventures, especially about dining that’ s fun and healthy and interesting. I do like to eat macaroni and cheese, so I will mention that sometimes, but I hardlyever order chicken fingers. One of my favorite foods is sushi, and for those of you who have never tried it, I encourage you to try it. If you don’t like it that’s fine because we don’t all like the same things.
If you write back, please add only positive comments to my blog. My mom is helping me and will review comments before I can read them and publish them. She can be reached through her website here.
Enjoy happy, healthy eating!
To all my friends and young foodies out there, happy eating, have fun, and eat good food! And don’t forget to wash your hands a lot, that’s very important too!

Hi Elena,
What a fantastic site you have! I am very excited to see you following your dreams of being a writer. As you know, I love to eat and travel too- so we definitely have that in common! Good luck with your blog. You make me proud!
Your teacher,
Mr. Frantz
Way to go, Elena! Blogging is a great skill to have. I personally love sushi too. I wish I could afford to eat it more.
I see that you visited Ardmore, Pa. You’ll have to contact me if you ever come to Lancaster and I will give you some great places to try
Dear Kelly, thank you for being so enthusiastic about my blog. What is your absolute favorite restaurant in Lancaster? I do like to go to Lancaster and I like to eat at the convention center. My mom works there sometimes.
Hi Elena
A friend told me about your blog. I can’t wait to read about your foodie adventures!

Hi Elena:
I love your blog, and your mother is very smart. She’s right: you don’t have to wait to grow up to be a writer. My sons just enjoyed some marinated and grilled venison tenderloin last night. Keep dining out, writing, and sharing. Your parents and teacher must be very proud of you! And keep tweeting.

Dear Anne Deeter Gallaher suprisingly I have tried venisen at school. My teacher brought some bologna for the class and I loved it. I bet your dinner was delicious. Thanks for your encouragement!
Sincerely,
