Fruit Cake was a Success

After quizzing each student for possible allergies, many of my students got their first taste of fruit cake.

This was a very rich "heavy" fruit cake with candied cherries and pineapple and a little lime for the fruit. Many pecans and walnuts were in the body of the cake. It was sweet. I bought two for 9 dollars each.. my nuts have gone up in price.

It was a good day overall. I helped them storyboard back from the ending of the movie. For each block there was a "why" and then a "what happened next". I hope that they give me some good writing on Wednesday.

Sue won a bid on 14 readers digest condensed books. 14 for 7 dollars plus 9 dollars shipping. Bring it on E-bay. What an invention.

We actually saw the sun today.. for about 3 hours.. how delightful. Hopefully there will be enough light to work the security gates at the school. I am always parked on the outside since my arrival is about 11:30 each day.

Have a good one

Pat

I remember grandma and grandpa had sets and sets of those condensed readers. I remember laying on that blue velvet sofa on the porch and reading the summer afternoon away.
