WINTER FOODS

In Malta we have many different types of dishes for winter. The main dish that Maltese people really like is ‘minestra’. This dish consists of many types of vegetables. It is ideal for balanced diet and vegetarian people. Also there are many types of soups. For example tomatoes soup, chicken soups and pea soups ecc. Another winter dish is ‘soppa ta l –armla.’ This is like a soup but it’s not. This consist of potatoes, ‘gbejniet’, carrots, boiled eggs and a lot of gravy.

WINTER ACTIVITIES

During winter we did a lot of different activities. We teenagers organized a lot of activities such as hikes. We normally go near trees and fields were we can play volleyball, football and other types of games. Another popular activity we organizes is that on Saturday night we’ll go to the cinema to watch a film. Many teenagers like to go to the cinema. Also we like to go to a plsy bowling. That’s also one of the favorites. Many friends decides to rent 2 DVDs and watch them maybe at their friend’s house instead of going out.

WINTER FESTIVALS

In winter the main festival that we have is the Malta Song For Europe. All Maltese people wait for the moment to watch it. That’s the most main program that we all love top watch every year. Apart from that, in this season we celebrate the Maltese Carnival. The Carnival always takes place at the capital city Valetta. Most of the Maltese people really enjoy watch it and also young children like to wear a particular costume. Many groups prepare a special moves so they can dance in front of all the people with their particular costume that it was made by special paper and not bought from shops. And obviously the main thing is the king of carnival. It is a huge wagon. I hope you liked reading our winter food, activities and festivals.
