Blueberry

The delectable scent of blueberry pancakes filled Janie’s nose. At the kitchen table her father was sipping his coffee. He took it black. Sunlight filtered through the sheer eggshell curtains, revealing the bloodshot and sunken eyes belonging to her father. “Mommy! Daddy! There’s…

obviously I mended it and changed it up so it would still fit me every year. I was proud of my dress, it had once shone bright one but has now faded like my childhood as I refuse to let go. I slipped out of my room before 8 am and grabbed a warm, kind blueberry muffin I had made the night before. The walk to school was long but the walk to the osage orange tree seemed like forever due to my longing for its awaking smell . When I reached the tree I took off my shiny…

Their are good filters and bad filters just like old me and new me. But I remember when i went to elementary I was so cute but sassy at the same time.

the transports would have to deliver not only food, but coal for heating. The bags of coal would be bulky and take up most of a plane’s space. As the airlift’s operation increased it exceeded General Smith’s capability. As a result, the duties of running the airlift were given to the Military Air Transport Service and a new commander Major General William H. Tunner. General Tunner had previously operated an aerial supply line during World War II that crossed the Himalayas, from India to China.…

a snack. As a result of being finicky with food, there are certain fruits that I like and do not like, so I separate them based on their textures and density. Green grapes and pineapple are my favorite. In contrast, I am not a fan of cherries, blueberries, or raspberries; they are too soft, and it bothers me while I am chewing them. Even apples that are soft inside are displeasing to eat. I eat fruit as a source of energy that comes from natural sugars. After having a bowl of pineapples or…

while both Madison and Riley stayed at the hotel. Andrew and Oscar quickly rushed back inside because it had started to pour, and they did not have an umbrella. They all had stayed in the dining room of the hotel to enjoy some hot cocoa and a blueberry muffin. They continued watching the news, in hope of seeing the polices catch their lost friend. Little did they know that John was miles away from…

CHAPTER NINE Tramp through Terror I packed quickly for our road trip, taking only the essentials, like a change of clothes, and three pairs of socks. Oh, and the usual sundries: a comb, small bottle of hand sanitizer, shampoo, first aid kit, soap, and a flashlight. I also crammed Zeke Bartholomew: Superspy into my bag, just in case I got time to read. After I was done, I tossed my bed together and tugged on a pair of jeans and a shimmering skull T-shirt. Then I ran a brush through my long,…
