beautiful braids, have a cute little dog, loyal companions, and strut along the yellow brick road in my ruby red slippers, tackling every challenge that came my way. Becoming Dorothy Gale was my dream. However, I never imagined that this dream would become my reality. The tornado in my life did not take me from Kansas to the land of Oz, but instead from Chicago to Buffalo where I had to search for the yellow brick road as I explored my new life. In Buffalo, I wasn’t faced with the Wicked Witch…

You can tell who was in the “lower class” from who was in the “higher class” from the way they lived. The lower class and poor class had homes built one brick thick, and they only had one to two rooms. The rich or more affluent class had homes that were much thicker made from brick or stone, multiple rooms, bathrooms, and had courtyards with flowers and even some with pools. “The rich had more items than the poor, including mirrors, shelves, pots and pans, beds, lighting…

The forces of good (me) and evil were going to clash in a battle where only one would make it out without a particularly nasty booboo! Unknown to me, the evil king of the playmat, the horrid beast of Whirley Street, T.J. was planning an ambush! In the fires of the “Reading Is Fun Corner” He began sticking the finest of legos together. Meanwhile, the great giant, Mrs.…

In my family Christmas time is the best time of the year. We always gather together and celebrate with a big beautiful tree and great food. The one food that is always a must have is tamales. My great grandmother started this tradition in her house, located in Durango, Mexico, because it was the one and only food she could always get the youngest child to eat.
