| Stained! Shannon Yum! Chocolate ice cream! Got to love it! It takes me back to the time I went to a restaurant called the Ponderosa. My family and I were up in Wisconsin Dells for vacation. The first thing my family had to do was go to the hotel and then we set off for the Ponderosa. It was my first time going to the Ponderosa. When we got there, there was a wood carved horse with detailed features. It almost looked real like it was going to get up and walk away. When we got inside, we all ordered the buffet. There was a salad bar, fruit, chicken, cookies, ice cream and more mouth-watering foods. I was so eager, I hopped out of my seat. Grandpa and I are always the first ones in line. Since I was finished with the main course, I went straight up for dessert. I go two sugar cookies and a chocolate chip brownie. After I ate it, I sat there and let it settle. Then I got some smooth, delicious, ice cream. It was chocolate and vanilla ice cream mix. I went to sit down and I forgot to get a spoon. I got up to get a spoon and that split second while I was getting up, I tipped over my ice cream all over my brand new white shirt. As I was trying to get the ice cream off my shirt, I knocked my refilled drink of Sprite. It went all over my aunt. My dad made it worse by trying to help. He kept rolling up my shirt and spreading the ice cream stain. After everyone was finished eating we went back to the hotel so I could change into a nice, clean, shirt that wasn�t white. Ever since we went to the Ponderosa and my shirt got covered in ice cream, I got a title. Whenever someone spills something or makes a mess while eating, they call it �Pulling a Shannon.� I was redder than a red tomato that day. It looked like I was going to explode. I just couldn�t stop blushing. |
| The Best Place Ever!
Sarah Wow! The place was packed! You couldn�t even walk! I was hungry and I needed ice cream! We decided to go to Oinks in Michigan. I had not eaten all day and this was not good. Boy do I get cranky if I don�t eat! Oinks is an ice cream place. My family, my cousin, and my grandparents were all going! I was so excited I couldn�t even talk because Oinks is my favorite place to eat� well to eat ice cream. I love it because I love ice cream and it has the best! My family didn�t know where the line ended to get the ice cream so we just were looking around and we were being pushed from all the people. I was so hungry! I was getting really mad! I thought my whole face turned tomato red! It didn�t though. One guy who worked there said, �Whose next!� really loud .I ran so fast between everyone. My dad was right behind me, then my brother, and then my mom. I thought in my head, �Oh man! I don�t know what I want. There�re so many good things to eat!� My dad went first. He got a banana spilt. My mom got one, too. Tom got a hot fudge sundae. I wasn�t sure. Then I saw something really good. Moose Tracks! Yum! I can taste it now! There was a little left of the Moose Tracks and it was all mine! I got it and when I got outside everyone thought my Moose Tracks looked so good. Boy were they right! It was delicious! The chocolate was really tasty. The cookie cream made it taste like a cookie with chocolate all over it! It was so good! That line was worth my Moose Tracks. Yummy! When we decided to leave I was upset because that place is the best ever! I can�t wait until next year to go again! I hope it is still the best! Oinks it the best ice cream place! |
