Describe the perfect Thanksgiving meal.

The best Thanksgiving meal is when we all go to Grandmother's.  Why is it so good?  Because there is great punch, nice deserts, good oster crackers, and I get to pick everything on my plate.  Most of the time we have nice sweet creamed corn.  We also get to see Unca Nick and Unca Matthew which we almost never get to see.  We also get to have a nice time with Knox.  He's fun to play with.  We also get to watch cool movies with Unca Nick.  I also like to watch Ruth and Unca Benji get into funny teasing fights.  It's also good to see Grandmother and Granddaddy.  And it's all a great time.

Describe the perfect apple (the taste, texture, color, and what you would do with it).

The perfect apple tastes sweet.  It has super sweetness, but not so sweet that it makes your teeth feel grimmy.  The color of it is a beautiful golden yellow apple.  The texture is smooth and shiney on the outside.  On the inside it is hard, but not hard to bite into.  It's soft, but not so soft that it is mushy.

I would make a beautiful pie with the apple.  Cut it up with a little bit of pumpkin spice on it since it is close to Thanksgiving. I would make the perfect vanilla ice cream to go with my pie.  My pie would have a pastry crust made of dough shaped like leaves.  Then when it was finished, I would use that edible paint on it.  Then I would take it to the Thanksgiving diner, and everyone would love it, even Britt and he doesn't like apples.  He would like it so much, he'd even eat two pieces.

Write a story about a turkey right before thanksgiving.

Once upon a time there was a little turkey named Rebecca.  It loved adventures, and one day it was on the biggest adventure of all.    It went out of it's home into the human world.

When I went out a human saw me and said, "Yum!  Let's cook this big fat turkey."  Then it grabbed me by the FEET!  He tied my feet up and then tied my wings so I could not fly.  Then he put me in the line to eat the fat, juicy, yummy turkeys.  There were lots of turkeys in the line because they all went on the same adventure.  They were all dead though, I wasn't.  I tried to fly, even if I couldn't.  I tried to hop, but I could not move a muscle.  Not even a feather.  I was the last one in line, and I was about to be thrown in the pot.  They were going to cut my feathers off, more like skin me.  But I was barely strong enough to hop, hop, hop off the counter.  I used my beak to peck the rope off my feet.  I tried to fly, but couldn't.  So I ran for my life yelling, "GOBBLE, GOBBLE, GOBBLE!"  Then I tried to go back home, but they closed off the entrance, and I couldn't get in.  So I ran and yelled gobble, gobble, gobble some more.  I ran and ran, no matter how much I ran.  Then they cut me in Alaska, they caught me in the dessert.  Panting, they took me all the way back home to Florida.  When we finally got back home, they stuffed me.  I had to eat and drink alot, because I was really thirsty.  As they stuffed me and drunk me up, then they took out the knife and chased me around the house.  I could fly, but then I fell back to the ground.  Then I jumped, jumped, jumped.  I almost got away when they went to chop my head off.  Then right before I died an army of turkeys came and pecked them up.  They ran away never to bother us again, and non of the turkeys were dumb enough to leave the hive ever again, because any who do get eaten.

It's Veteran's Day.  What are three ways to show your appreciation.

1)  I could give them a salute.  Poppa J likes when I salute with him.
2)  I could give them a present like maybe a little money to do something fun with his family, since he has to be gone from his family alot.  Or a board game, or tickets to a baseball game.
3)  I could say thank you because no one knows that you appreciate them if you don't say so.

Sept 22nd was the first day of Fall.  What do you think of when you think of fall?

I think about going to Ahna and Grump's house, where Grumps makes a gianormous pile of leaves and us jumping in.  I think about eating a big, giant piece of turkey.  I think of having fun at Ahna and Grumps' house with Neela.  And that's pretty much it.  Yes, I like fall.  Why wouldn't I?  The leaves are all different kinds of colors, we get to go to Ahna and Grump's house.  Everything is great about fall.  I really like getting to see all the pretty colors of the leaves.  It kinda reminds me of a rainbow, but not in that order.  There is red and orange and yellow and sometimes that really dark purply color.  It's my second favorite part of the year, after Christmas.

What's your favorite thing about fall?

I love jumping in leaves, and helping make Turkey.  I love how it's super cool and the different color leaves.  Sometimes I see snow flurries.  I love everything about fall except getting my lips chapped.  The second problem with fall is that I can't wear sandals like I can in Florida all the time.  But if I had to pick one activity as my favorite part, my favorite, favorite part is raking a big, big, BIG pile of leaves with Grumps and all of us jumping in.  Then when Grumps buries us and we pretend to swim in it.  One year we played Dead Man, Dead Man, like on the trampoline, but in the leaves and staggered around trying to tag them with our eyes closed.  I kept falling in the leaves.  One time we pulled Grumps into the leaves, but it was super hard.  Then he laughed and pulled us in the leaves and buried us with more leaves.  When we finally got out of all the leaves, he was already raking up another pile.
