Holidays

I love celebrating holidays, and really like to decorate my house for them.  My favorite holiday is probably Christmas, because we get to pick out a tree and decorate it.  I also like Halloween, and dressing up in a costume.  Most of the candy I get I trade with my friends for my favorites, and it's really fun.  Back to holidays, it's just fun to celebrate with your class, and sometimes we will have a party for them.

Nutella
I love eating nutella.  I think it's really good if you dip pretzels in it, because it's sweet because of the chocolaty taste but also salty because of the salt from the pretzels.  I first had it in fifth grade, and have loved it since.  It's also good if you spread it on bread with peanut butter, to make a "PB and N" sandwich.

In the Garden

     I was in the garden, just before midnight, going to the shed because I had left an important paper in it.  Suddenly, I heard a sound like the screams of a coyote, and ran to the shed door.  I quickly took out my key and tried to unlock the shed.  The key wouldn't fit, like it always did.  Amid the screams, I heard a child crying inside the shed.  I banged against the door, as I heard the sound of running paws.  I I desperately wished I was inside my house.  I looked through the window / into the shed, and caught a glimpse of my little brother.  "I'm coming," I yelled to him and looked around the garden.  Among the cabbages, I spotted three coyotes.  I kicked at the door, but to no avail.  The coyotes ran at me, and I put my arms up to defend myself.  I knew that I wouldn't make it until morning.
