You need to be more specific
<span>Before watching the game, Skylar made artichoke and spinach dip, as well as super nachos.
That sentence contains an independent clause: </span>Skylar made artichoke and spinach dip.
As well as two dependent clauses: Before watching the game; as well as super nachos.
Given those characteristics, I believe that sentence is complex.
"Marigolds" takes place in a town which is a slum area, in rural Maryland during the Great depression. The narrator, Elizabeth, remembers it as a "Dry September" which the situation with Miss Lotties marigolds took place. (hopefully that helps for a start, of course you can always take something out or add more information) good luck :)
