Monday

This morning I went through my clothes in my closet and got rid of jeans, too small or too worn; skirts, too dated or too big; dresses, unwearable; scarves, too bulky; and belts, too metallic and clunky. Then my  generous mother went on the American Eagle website and found suitable clothing for me: jeans, the right size; sweaters, in pretty blues; dresses, fluorescent green and crotched; and pink sandals, in the right size.
English assignment for today: using colons and semicolons.

"Growing up in the shadows of the Teton Mountains, I remember coming home on cold winter nights to my Mother's homemade hot chocolate. It was always rich and creamy and made me feel warm again.

Now that I am grown I have been making my family homemade hot chocolate and adding my own twists to make it better. Try my different flavors and you will feel warm once again on those cold winter nights!

Each batch of our cocoa is made from scratch and we use the best and highest quality ingredients that we can find. This is not your average hot cocoa!" - Teton Cocoa Company Etsy Shop Description 

Teton Cocoa Company has kindly sponsored...

a small bag of cocoa - and the winner gets to choose the flavor! This is a $12-$13 value!

 You could choose gourmet carmel hot cocoa...

Or gourmet hazelnut hot cocoa... 

Or gourmet white chocolate hot cocoa... there is a large variety of flavor choices! 

This is such an awesome prize! Many thanks to Teton Cocoa Company for sponsoring this gift!

Our second prize comes from Sweet Addict! Thanks so much toDeidre for sponsoring these two wonderful prizes!


"I am a sweet addict. Did you know that sugar is just as addictive as cocaine? Yep, according to OnlineNursingPrograms.com, Americans enjoy sugar - and eat lots of it! Although I obviously love sugar products, I encourage portion control and healthy lifestyles to compensate for the high caloric content....

Baking skills self taught in a Dutch kitchen and refined over many (many!) years and hundreds of batches later, we ensure the highest quality product available at a wallet-friendly cost. We use earth-friendly packaging, recycle and by purchasing local and organic when possible, we are doing our part to reduce our carbon footprint.

If you'd like to view our all organic version of these items, please visit our other shop: SweetAddictOrganic.Etsy.com

Every item in our shop is handmade to order in small batches in order to ensure the highest quality product;"- Sweet Addict Etsy Shop Description

"I am a Christian young lady who loves to create beautiful and colorful accessories. Each of my polymer clay accessories is made by hand, no molds used! I don't want a factory-made look when I create my items.
My resin cabochons are all purchased from other Etsy shops. I try to support other Etsy businesses as much as possible, so whenever I can't make a supply I shop Etsy first. All of the items in my shop are entirely made from my own hands and/or Etsy supplies."- Emariecreation's Etsy Profile

                  Magnificent

Walking into the endless monster, the darkness folded in making me as blind as a bat , turning  on my flash light head set  I notice a crying a trickle of tears winding and weaving its way though the small tunnel. As the tonal crouched , my path forces me to crawl like a caterpillar as slow as molasses until the ceiling of the cave raised its head like a steep mountain. The light on my headset shined like the sun, reflecting off of a pool water. It seems like Diamonds are shimmering  all around me. It was magnificent.

this is not the best paper i have written and its not vary good
but what ever
