Mira Advances to Spelling Bee Regionals
Posted in Personal January 31st, 2010 by joedelta

Mira won her school spelling bee some weeks ago (Lyra Meadow came in third).  Now she’s passed another hurdle, advancing to the California Central Valley Championships.  If she wins that, she’ll go to DC.

She advanced by correctly spelling “waterzooi.”

    Maybe Mary (or Mira) should learn to cook it. :)
