OMG! Tried 1st McDonald's Burger!

It was late Monday night, i'd just got out of my piano lesson, and then my Mom said, "I don't feel like cooking at 7:30 at night, let's get McDonald's" I agreed and we both got A Quarter Pounder and those tantalizing cheese bacon fries. The beef was pretty good, and It was complimented with ketchup covered pickles, and onion. The fries were amazing though when the top fries were gone, it was hard to eat. In all i'd get a burger again, but i'd get a Big Mac.

 5th Avenue's  TOP 14 favorite Scooby Doo,                   Where Are You? Monsters

14: The Phantom Bag-Piper and the Loch Ness Monster (A Highland Fling with A Monstrous Thing, Season 3 episode 6) After the Gang's so-called Scottish friend (I say so called cause her accent was bad) calls 'em up on the phone to swing by, they see the ghost of their friend's great-grandfather. Who controls the Loch Ness Monster via Bagpipe. The Ghost turns out to be the caretaker, Jamie, and he's made this list due to the hilariously bad accents. (I'm Scottish, so It's extra funny)


13:  The Witch and Zombie (Which Witch is Witch, season 1, Episode 13.) This duo, who scare people away from the Armored car they wrecked in the river, practice voodoo, an other hooey, in a effort to protect themselves. Their identities: Zeke (Zombie) and Zeb (Witch) the general store owners. I like this kooky duo because the setting for their hauntings tie in well with their characters. 

12: The Phantom Shadows ( A Night of Fright is No Delight, Season 1, Episode 16) These giggling green ghouls haunt an old man's house. When he died, he gives his fortune to any one who stays the night. The ghouls  are actually Mr. Creeps and  Mr. Crawls: The Old man's Attorneys. I like these monsters because  the episode has the funniest names I've ever heard of:  Cousin Slicker, Cousin Simple, Nephew Norble, and (my favorite) Sweet Cousin Maldahyde. 

11:  Ghost Clown (Bedlam in the Bigtop Season 1 episode 10) This (I'm being honest) is one of the two scariest monsters on here in my book which is the only reason he's on here. He's a horrifying hypnotist  who makes Daphne think she's a uni cyclist, and has the identity of a thieving hypnotist. A word of advice: Don't jack with this funny face. 

10: Tar Monster (The Tar Monster Season 3 episode 5) This ancient legend is the cyclops with a muddy footprint  who wants to "Protect" his treasure when he's actually stealing it. His identity is *Laughs* Mr. Stoner, the gang's friend's assistant, who was thought missing. This sticky scary is on here due to the fact his name's Stoner. Not really. But because he's a legend, and a freaky one, too.


9: Redbeard (Go Away Ghost Ship, Season 2 Episode 1) This  sea faring scare is stealing ships from the descendant of the man who sentenced him to  (Echo) DEATH!!!! He's on this list because of many things, but to narrow them down: 1. Liverwurst being his password, 2. Ghost Pirate Stew, 3. His Munsters-esque butler. This baddie's identity is Mr Magnus, the sworn enemies descendant!

8: Mummy (Scooby Doo and A Mummy Too Season one episode 12) "Coin, Coin, Coin!" Wait, I've heard that before, it's *Gasp* The Mummy! After Shaggy gets his hands on an ancient artifact, this thousand year old freak broke out, turned 2 people to stone and attacked the gang. The Mummy was actually a greedy professor who molded the people, (Including himself) to stone. He's on here cause he's hilariously incompetent 

7 Mano Tiki Tia ( A Tiki Scare is no Fair Season 2 episode 9) This Hawaiian heathen is the witch doctor of a mysterious haunted village, accompanied by ghost drums, a live statue, and the craziest mask ever, he makes for a real big thorn in the gang's side. He turns out to be the man who invited them on the trip in the first place, newspaper article writer, Jon Simms. Mono Tiki Tia's on here because his weird way of screeching.

6: Snow Ghost (That's Snow Ghost Season 2 Episode 3) After a trip to a spooky ski lodge, all the gang want to do is go to sleep, right? I would. But of course, as Velma would say, "It looks like we have another mystery on our hands." There was a spook snow spirit, who was thought to be looking for a Tibetan man , but in the end nothing like that. The Beast was actually was the ski lodge owner, smuggling diamonds. He's on here because of his creepy counter part, that Tibet guy, and *Scoffs* Clear skis. 


 5: Elias Kingston  (What the Hex is Going On?) When the gang's friend, Sharon asks them to come visit, she has no idea that her Uncle Stuart would age 30 years. This blue-skinned ghost of Kingston, (Who claims Sharon's family's fortune is his) turns out to be (With a lot of work done) *Gasp* Uncle Stuart! I love (Not like, love) this episode, because it's one of my Mom's favorites, and it's always fun in the Swami shop with Scooby.

4. The Diabolical Disc Demon (The Diabolical Disc  Demon, Season 3 episode 11) He looks like the members of Kiss and Heath Ledgers' The Joker had a baby, is stealing song writers, cutting power, and writing some pretty wonky music, but thanks to the gang, the music session can continue, because the owners nephew, Ace Decade, was the ulprit. He's on here 'cause his appearance, and every scene he's in, enlightens me.

3: Mr. Hyde (Nowhere to Hyde, Season 2, episode 4) A fun, modern twist on doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but with a few extra things: An acrobat named Helga, Jewels, suction cups, musical montages and hiding in vans. The culprit (Of course) Was Dr. Jekyll. This VERY fun episode's monster is included here because of Helga's "Shame on you Dr. Jekyll!" and the modern twist. 

2: The Ghost of captain Cutler (A clue for Scooby-Doo, Season 1 episode 3) This spooky sea spirit is a gem around here at 5th Avenue. He's Green, he's mean, and he's a... Dead man in a glowing seaweed wrapped giving suit? That doesn't sound right! He steals boats, locks teens in boats and apparently really likes boats. He is one of the more refined ghouls on here.



                                       Honorable Mentions

The Werewolf (Who's Afraid of a Big Bad Werewolf?)
Creepy Ghost  (Hassle in the Castle)
The Beast         (The Beast is awake in The Bottomless Lake)
The Warlock      (The Warlock of Wimbledon)



                                                        Number 1:

The Creeper! (Jeepers, it's the Creeper season 2 episode 6) Everyone's favorite hunchback, the phantom bank robber, the Creeper. He knocks ya out and ransacks ya car, possibly the most iconic Scooby Monster, has stolen our wallets and hearts. His identity may shock you, it's the bank president! He's on here because he's in love with an ostrich and all his neighbors complain.                    Citation Needed

                      Movie Review: 

                Breakfast at Tiffany's

First of all, this movie is divine, it's probably one of the best movies of the 1960's. Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard acting was simply stunning in my book. But the Golightly's constant drinking and smoking aren't very good messages towards younger viewers. Her cigarette holder is an unmistakable attribute, but still, basically in every scene she's smoking. Not a good decision,  Holly. Holly Golightly's outfits are stunning. hair and all, and Hepburn brings a sort of spunk into every scene she's in. Mr. Yunioshi is a VERY strong cultural stereotype, he's hilarious, but still. Even though it was 1961, and years prior America was in The Korean War, but for children in this era, it's not okay to think that kind of portrayal of Asians is alright. The end *Spoiler Alert*, when Holly let Cat run amuck the streets, I cried. Partying, heartbreak, and Audrey Hepburn, a good movie indeed. 4.5.

                     Restaurant Review



Mario's Restaurant, a restaurant  60 years old, nestled in Midtown, Detroit, was very good. I started with a salad with a plate of "Add On's"  the 'Add On's" were shrimp, beets (Just to name a few) and after that course, had a pureed minestrone soup, with Parmesan cheese. The creaminess of the soup went even creamier with the adding of the cheese.  after a 15 minute wait, I got my food, Gnocchi in a blush  sauce (Alfredo and Marinara mixed) . The creaminess of the sauce really contrasted well with  the gnocchi. The soft gnocchi really soaked the blush up, creating a dish i'd like to eat every day of the week. For drink, I had a Shirley Temple, very good shaken well, stirred well, and in all, a very good meal from Mario's Restaurant.😀😀
