Cheesecake
By Max
Cheesecake is a good kind of cake, because it is good to eat and it is easy to make one. If you are a patient person, you can make a cheesecake yourself.
My experience about cheesecake is even my mother didn’t make one for me to eat, I still can’t forget it in my mind. We eat cheesecake very rarely, and last time we ate cheesecake is in my brother’s birthday last year. We don’t know how to make a cheesecake, so we bought one outside to eat. After we opened the box, we saw a nicely round-shaped cheesecake, and a layer of brown crust is on the bottom of the cheesecake. I ate the cheesecake first, and I felt the cake was very soft and the crust was very crispy. But I think it was very dry, so I ate it with a cup of milk. After eating it , I thing it was good to eat, and now when I remember that time eating the cheesecake, I will bring it to my sons born it the future to eat.
Do you have any experience eating cheesecake? I bet it is a good memory of eating that. Because this “magic” cheesecake can let our souls become more happy.

A Big, Bright Idea
What's the best way to celebrate National Inventors' Month? Build a giant Lego light bulb!

Even before the project started, Lego master builder Steve Gerling was excited. "We're going to build our fingers to the bone," he told TFK. Last weekend, Lego teamed up with the Smithsonian's Center for Invention and Innovation in Washington, D.C., to build an eight-foot-tall version of Thomas Edison's light bulb. August is National Inventors' Month, and the light bulb is the symbol for a big idea.
Brick by Brick
More than 10,000 kids helped build the giant plastic structure with hundreds of thousands of Lego bricks. It took two days to build it. "The little plastic bricks are so accessible," Gerling says. "It's a medium of creativity and inventiveness."
Gerling has been a Lego master builder for 13 years. For this project, he first made a drawing of the light bulb and then a prototype, or a smaller version of the bulb. Anything can be built with Lego, the master builder says, but large projects need extra support. "We have a couple of very small glued sections, because it's a round shape," he said. "It's just a little bit of insurance."
The Spark of an Idea
Edison invented the incandescent lamp 130 years ago. He succeeded only after conducting many experiments. Edison became one of America's most successful inventors. He held more than 1,000 patents for inventions.
The Lego light bulb was built in the National Museum of American History. At the museum, visitors can learn more about remarkable inventions in the "Invention at Play" exhibition. The Spark!Lab features a building and engineering laboratory.
Unlike Edison's inventions, the Lego light bulb will not stand the test of time. It was constructed in the middle of the museum's entrance and was broken down right after the project was completed. Still, Gerling says that he and the museum's visitors had a fantastic experience. "Watching the kids plowing into this," he says, "was a great deal of fun."

Max-Thomas Edison is a great inventor because he invented many things that we use. He invented the light bulb, which is a great invention, and they want to build a large light bulb, in Lego Blocks! Many people and children came to help make the light bulb, and they used two days and several thousands of Lego Blocks. When the light bulb is formed, it still collapsed after done building. But it is a great way to know Thomas Edison invented the light bulb.
