The cookie corrector 

Many people don't think about the little details, while making a batch of cookies. But the cookie corrector pays attention to every little one. If he finds out that something went wrong with your cookies, he must fix it if he wants to sleep at night. The cookie corrector has lots of rules to teach you that he believes everyone needs to follow to come out with amazing, blue ribbon worthy cookies!

So let's start!

Number one: If not sweet, it's not a treat! Everyone's cookies must be sweet or the cookie corrector will not approve. If there's no sugar then what's the point! Cookies were not invented to be healthy, they were made to be a special snack, on special occasions. So no yucky fruits or vegetables! Only sweet ones. Zucchinis, carrots, potatoes or squash will not do! Peaches, apples and pumpkins are good because they're sweet!

Number two: A special knife. The cookie corrector suggests that everyone have one knife for just making your cookies. A big, sharp one. But be careful and clean it everyday. 

Number three: Tie back your hair. Long hair no care just not apply for this situation. Nobody wants to eat a mouthful of hair. Tie it back, pin it up, put it in a hair net, just get it out of your cookies!

Number four: Doubling up? Make sure you cookies don't stick to one another. Put them on the tray spread apart from each other. Two separate warm cookies are awesome but two cookies stuck together, not as enjoyable. 

Number five: The pan! You need to have a non-stick pan! If not, it'll be a catastrophe! And I certainly don't want to see tears when you can't get your cookies off the tray! You can't just slap them on there in hopes that they'll come off. And if you see this, don't just be a spectator, yell at them saying that you want your cookies now! Well, nicely. ;)

Number six: Beverages! Probably something warm, never cold. Hot chocolate, tea, coffee, warm milk. Anything warm and sweet is just fine!

Number seven: Dippings? Only if, and only if you can find something good to dip your cookies in then go ahead. But no spaghetti sauce, no ranch dressing and no hot cheese! But warm chocolate, cool pudding and milk are definitely better options!

Number eight: Shapes! It's fun to cut your cookies into shapes! For special occasions and holidays is especially festive! You can just catch that cookie in a baseball mitt and roll it up in a "traditional" ball. But traditional is boring. You have to have fun with your cookies! 

These messages are brought to you by, the cookie corrector! For all your failing cookie needs!

You

Are Never Too Short

December 21st

Well wanted to start my JOURNAL off with a something that happened today, and I have a feeling that today is just the beginning. But first let me tell you about myself, my name is Leo Stalton. I am a 10 year old and I go to Mallorow Elementary School. Okay so here it goes. So today Miss Jawsomme (my teacher) was having regular morning, with regular kids, and regular assignments to mark. She is a pretty small person like 4'5. I'm 5'3, some people in my class are kind of mean to her and make jokes about her height. I don't, there is no problem with being short. Anyways, this afternoon it wasn't so regular as I would have thought. After lunch I come into the classroom and there was papers scattered everywhere. I asked her what all of these paper were doing on the floor, then she came very slowly to me, huffing and puffing and stood there.............. Then she came close to my ear and said " someone CHEATED and made a picture of me" I said "well that's nice right"? She showed me the picture and it just said this is how small you are just words no picture. Okay, that's just plain mean .Beginning to start and huff and puff

again she angrily stormed off to the principals office. It's not that big of a deal. It all just happened really fast, weird? Anyways, I was so petrified at what happened but I had to find out why she would be so mad. She was a very nice teacher actually one of my favourites. I couldn't just leave her alone like this. So I tip toed behind her, and just as she touched the door knob to the office she looked up, down, right, left, behind her. When she saw no one she kept walking so silently so the science lab. She looked in the room no one was in there either so she locked the door and put curtains up all over the windows, including the door window. That didn't stop me, no....... I was going to go through the vent. I have been here for 6 years, I could tell you where everything is by heart. So I grabbed a chair and stepped on it so lightly so that you couldn't hear a creak. I was just about to open the vent when the PA system went on saying "Leo Stalton please report to Room 6, Leo Stalton please report to Room 6". We had math, I really didn't care. I started again to reach for the vent so very still like. I opened it and went in. I closed it back up so no one would notice me in here. I think someone could have noticed me I was like an elephant in there. It wasn't my fault, it was the vents fault, it was creaking every time I moved. Anyways, I could hear Miss Jawsomme pacing around the room. I heard her stop! I came to a halt stop and scraped my knee severely. I was hoping she didn't hear me in here because if she did, I was going to be dead! I tried to keep moving slowly but my knee hurt to much. I heard Miss Jawsomme walk over and grab a glass something, but I could make out what it was? I could also hear her drinking something. I was hope it was a valid drink and not one of the science projects? That would be a big catastrophe! I finally reached the end of the vent to the science room, and no sign of Miss Jawsomme. "Wait? No, What? She was," so I climbed through the vent for nothing. "Well that's was a waste of time". Nevermind, I don't get it she was here a minute ago? I look up and I see this huge woman at the door. I'm surprised how tall she is, I can't believe I didn't hear or see her like 2 minutes ago!

I realize that it's Miss. Jawsomme. She had been turned into a big big human being. I kept asking her "Miss Jawsomme, Miss Jawsomme are you okay? She didn't give me a very clear answer. I didn't know what to do like she wasn't that tall, but she was like 8'11. She walked over to me, then started running over to me with her fist out I screamed " Ahhhhhhhh"!!!!!

Izabella's Story

One day, in the state of North Dakota , there was a girl named Maria riding her horse to go visit her friend Dave. She brought some food to share with him. She rode her horse across the whole field, it took her 3 long hours of horse riding to finally be in the valley of Margine where Dave lived. As soon as she got there she ran off her horse and greeted him with a hug. He realized a scrape on her arm, and scrapes on her legs. Dave invited her in to get her cleaned up. They went back outside and shared the food Maria brought them. "After we're all done eating do you want me to teach you how to ride a horse the proper way?" Dave asked. "So are you saying I don't know how to ride a horse." Cried Maria. Dave smiled and pulled Maria up on her feet, he went to the barn and grabbed his horse Nay Nay and ran to the start of the track, Maria followed along and grabbed her horse Puke Puke and went behind Dave. Dave dropped his sandwich and tried to reach down for it but Nay Nay ended up eating it. Nay Nay was a short little horse with purple hair, Puke puke was a tall horse with puke all over it. "Okay! yelled Dave, so you see that yellow line? Yeah well we're going to have a race to it, it'll test your speed and make you a better rider, now don't you cheat and cut threw the lines," smiled Dave. "Haha I won't!" "If somehow you manage to beat me, I will have a little treat for you. Don't do anything that will cause catastrophe with the horses." Yelled Dave. Maria and Dave spent the rest of the afternoon racing, by 6:00 it was dark. "It takes me just over 3 hours to get back to my house and it's already pretty much black outside so I better leave, ugh I'm so stupid I should of left earlier!" Cried Maria. "Okay peace out, be careful!" yelled Dave. On the way home a killer came and killed Maria and her horse the end.

The Catastrophe

It was Sunday afternoon, around noon. I was watering my peach tree when my heart stopped. I fell to my knees praying to god I would live. I woke up in the hospital with my granddaughter, she was short, skinny and loved crafts. She reached for my hand, she said "I love you grandma" , I said " I love you too dear " . A few days later I went home but this time it was different, I had a defibrillator strapped on my chest. I try to breath and instead of a clean fresh breath I get a cold painful inhale. I also have a necklace, not just any necklace a necklace that if you press the center, it calls an advisor to your house to help you. (exp. if you fall and can't get up you press the center)

I have trouble sleeping the first few nights thinking about that day, the day that changed my life forever, I have no control of my body now,
it makes me feel like I'm floating in space. When the morning comes I feel not worse but better, I feel truly alive finally I can teach my grade 7 class again. A few mounts went by and I went back to school (teaching). My class said hello, and we missed you but I didn't believe it for one bit. My class disliked me, the only person who would take a seat next to me was little Johnny Daniel. He LOVED
me he always had and that warmed my heart. When I walked through the door he handed me a piece of toast, it tasted delicious. "Johnny said here Mrs. Luanne I missed you" I said "I missed you too". The school has this charity found raiser every year, usually they have some games and 3 foot races, but this time was different there were no kids around. Only men in business suits, was this a trap to get me to retire, or will I be forced to make my escape...
