Answer 1

Bake Sale Tale

Today is the day I'm going to the bake sale for school. I jumped out of bed and got dressed quicker then a jack rabbit. As I walked downstairs I could already smell fresh chocolate chip cookies that Mom has been making for the bake sale. "Good morning!" I yelled with excitement . "Good morning sweetie." she replied. I looked over her shoulder at the gooey , warm brownies. I wanted to grab one, mom interrupted"No, these are for later and there not quite done yet." So she put the brownies back into the oven and started to clean a little. Hours passed and the brownies where done or so I thought...

Mom grabbed her purse and the brownies and got into the car so I followed. Once we where at the bake sell you could smell so many various aroma's such as pumpkin pie, sweet apple cobbler, and much more. When we got to our table Mom put the brownies on the table, and people started to gather around. Mom quickly took off the lid, and then I saw the brownies amass. "Oh no!" I said in a quite tone. Mom looked at me and said "Sorry, I guess it's still not finished. It was warm and perfect before we left."

Then I quickly started to convey, I looked at everyone's sweets and they where perfect. Everyone enjoyed theres, why did this happen to me? This isn't fair! I went to the Principal which she was the one who started the bake sell. I said in a sad tone "Can you please end the bake sale?" she replied "Why?" I told her "Well my brownies are undercooked, and can't be eaten." For a few minutes I tried to mediate the principal, but it didn't work. Suddenly Mom ran up to me with a new box of brownies. I shouted "You got more brownies?" Mom replied "Yes, I did!" We went back to the table and placed the brownies down, and a bunch of people amass around our table buying a brownie. I quickly reverted from my depressed state to being filled with joy. I hovered over the brownies with hungry intent.

Remember you may give up, but anything can happen so just wait. Things happen for a pretty good reason.

Hope I helped!

Good Luck!

Answer 2

It would be better if you mention which grade you are in and which class this story is for. But here you go:

It was a cold winter night and I was home alone.  My parents had gone on vacation in Hawaii. I was old enough and did not need a baby sitter but my parents had asked my older cousin to stay with me. He called after I had dinner saying he would be staying at his girl friend's place instead. I said fine and told him to have fun.

I was watching TV when the power suddenly went out. I looked outside the window and the whole neighborhood was dark too. I told myself to stay calm and I found a flash light. A shadow dashed towards me. I was surprised but realized it was my cat. His name was Dash. I played with Dash by pointing the flash light for him to chase.

Power remained off after an hour and I wanted to go to bed. I put Dash on his cot and covered him with blanket. Home was getting cold as the heat went out with the power. I got in bed and found out it was really cold. After twisting and turning for thirty minutes, I could not fall asleep in the cold bed.

I got up and warmed some milk in the microwave. Dash heard me and ran to me. His body was shaking a little. "So you cannot sleep either huh? Look like we have a problem here, Dash." I rubbed his body trying to warm him up. Just then I had an idea.

I warmed more milk and shared it with Dash. We both felt pretty good and warm. I took Dash to my room and let him sleep by me. Our body heat kept each of us warm and comfortable. We both fell asleep shortly after. The power and heat were back on by the time Dash and I woke up in the morning.
