When I first read The Thing in the Forest‚ I was immediately taken in. I wondered what the thing could be. Was she going to talk about the two little girls‚ Penny and Primrose‚ witnessing the making of weapons‚ the abused lives of other orphans‚ or even the murders of German prisoners? The exposition‚ especially the time when World War II was going on‚ had led me to expect hostility. And my expectations turned out to be right‚ but in a different form. “The thing” was a hideous‚ worm-like creature

The marble-like color of pink and tan blended together and the almost engraved looking marks around my ankle from wearing socks all day make them just make up some of the characteristics I hate about my feet.

Holiday dinners are well known for the staple meats like turkeys‚ hams or roast beefs‚ I find that abnormally too traditional for my taste. What I love about holiday dinners are the warm gatherings with my family‚ the sometimes tottering uncertainty of outside guests and enthusiasm for surprise dishes.
