Thanksgiving

Hi, I’m Vicky the Turkey. It’s that time of year again: Thanksgiving. Of course, the first thing that comes up to your mind is a golden, perfectly glazed roast turkey. Hold up right there! Before you chop my head off, I need to have a few words with you. Every year, people eat turkey. It is time for a change. You shouldn’t eat turkey because there are so many other foods to eat. You can have chicken, salmon, duck, or goose. Turkey is just a big chicken. All you need to do is roast multiple…

This can make for a tone of Christmas present that may have not of happen without Black Friday deals. This spending does not only benefit the people receiving these wonderful gifts but it also helps our…

Dave Barry has a humorous tone throughout the passage “Turkeys in the Kitchen.” He uses his humor to mock him and many other men when it comes to being in the kitchen. While doing this, he touches upon a widely known stereotype about men and women. The humor presented makes Barry establish a connection with his readers, both men and women. One thing that adds to this sense of humor is his exaggeration. He would mention things like “I would no more enter that kitchen than I would attempt to park…

My creative side is not expressed artistically such as drawings, paintings and sculptures, however, I can express myself through innovative thinking and problem solving. For instance, just recently, my parents planned a family trip during thanksgiving break to Cancun, Mexico. It was great news, but I wanted to share this amazing experience with someone I really cared about.

When we finished our car ride, we ended up at the…
