My First Ketchup Sandwich Research Paper

Decent Essays
I was about 7 years old and my country cousin, Steve, was about 5. We were playing and running around all day until it got dark and it was time to come inside. Our grandma was not well and our parents had gone to sit with her at the hospital. Larry and Lisa, Steve’s older siblings, were home and taking care of us. Steve introduced me to my very first ketchup sandwich. He skillfully prepared my sandwich and passed it to me for a taste. I’d never tasted anything better!

We played in the wrecked cars and in the abandoned buildings behind their house. It was the most fun a city girl like me ever had! He had a gigantic sand pit that was perfect for building roads and playing cars. (I hear he’s still playing with fast cars only bigger ones now.)
