Preparing

Last night and this morning was filled with a lot of preparing for our county fair. Every year in August our county holds a fair and they have open exhibits to enter things into. So I'm entering 5 photos, which I had trouble printing, framing and getting ready last night. Today, I baked a coffee cake, which turned out pretty good, but tasted extremely dry, bland, not tasteful...but my dad loved it, so I figure I have some hope of winning. (Not really...) Whatever, at least....nevermind. I'm also entering a writing composition that my friend and I wrote last year. I wrote and she helped. Here it is below:

This is an Shakespearean adaption of the fable, "The Frog and the Mouse."

Knave!

Frog: (to mouse) Oh mouse! Oh beloved mouse! Come to my home!

Mouse: How silly ye fool, I cannot swim!

Frog: Thou knave! Why hast thou denied the beloved kingship of the pond?

Mouse: Knave? I am no knave! Tie thou twine to thy leg! Take me with thee to thy kingdom!

Frog: Come! Thy twine hath been twined between us! Come now! Now that thou be so foolish, I shall drown thee in my pond!

Mouse: Barbarian! Squeak! Squeak! Thou hath drowned me! Thou hath killed my beloved nature! (eyelids close)

Stork: (flying overhead) Ahk! Thou insolent amphibian! Ye shall pay for thy evil Deed! (dives down)

Frog: Knave! How dare ye?

Stork: How dare ye murder an innocent mouse such as he was? Thou shall die by my skewering beak!!

Frog: I hath died from thou savage beak!

Stork: Thy blood stings my tongue! (eats mouse next) Sweet, beloved mouse, thou blood soothes! Now our feuds are over. I’ll return to my kingdom if the air, whilst thou rule thy kingdom of eternal darkness however thou pleases. (frog eyes slide shut)

So, it was fun to write and if you enter any type of writing into the fair you get $5.50!!!!! HiP HiP HoOrAy! I don't know what was up with the "shift" button, but the hips look cool....;p lol.
