Okay. Say you can bake a cake. Say you can ride a bike. You can make a paper airplane. A cootie-catcher. Anything, you can make anything. What you would have to do it tell how you make it, and from the words below, choose a word/adjective that describes how you make it, whether it be how it looks, sounds, tastes, or feels.
Say I can bake muffins : first I would preheat the oven, beat the butter and sugar, mix it all together, lather it into muffins cups, and so on. I would put it in the oven, and wait for it. Once I would eat it, or anything, I would say that the muffins are fresh out of the oven. They are smooth to my touch. They taste sweet in my mouth. And say I overheated this muffin to burned crisps. They would taste and feel hard.
