Laffy Taffy

seen or heard about taffy. What I would think would come to mind to most people when I would say something regarding taffy might be something concerning saltwater taffy. I love saltwater taffy. It seems that it is not in great supply around here. The only place I know of is somewhere like the cracker barrel. Needless to say I never go to cracker barrel, and it is a little more than I feel comfortable spending on candy. So I find myself resorting to a childhood favorite, laffy taffy. It is sold everywhere

The second my foot entered the classroom, I knew for sure that I made the right decision. Precedently, everyone told me that I was too stupid, even dumber than a pig, and had surely no capability to succeed in the program. I refused to listen, and decided to try it out. At this point, I never thought of French Immersion in a way that it was. Believing it was merely an intense class to learn a new language, I discovered it was way more intriguing than anyone had anticipated. Every student endeavored

First, let me introduce myself, before I tell you some stories about the teen-aged Mary Deas Frost, my roommate at The Hannah More Academy in Reisterstown, Maryland. We lived together from the fall of 1934 through the spring of 1936, when we graduated and had to go our separate ways. I - not the person reading this to you - am Frances Rich Tyrrell. I am 99 years old. I live outside of Baltimore, Maryland. I cannot be with you today in body, but my spirit soars in celebration of Mary Deas’s life

vvvNobody addresses me by my real name anymore except for my dad and when I’m in trouble. I bet that if I asked anyone what my real name was, they wouldn’t remember it. The nickname given to me was Laffy Taffy just cause in second grade, I made the mistake of laughing too hard at a Laffy Taffy joke. It’s not my fault that I laugh too much in a minute. The name never bothered me since I actually like my nickname better than my real name Georgina. I hate that name so much because it was my dad’s mom’s

I was introduced to AR (Accelerated Reading) quizzes, which tested one’s knowledge on a novel and awarded points. The points could be used towards receiving an award from the “chest”, which was a chest full of prizes, from chinese handcuffs to laffy taffies. This chest was placed purposely in front of my fourth and fifth grade language arts classes, so that all student were made aware of the prizes at all times and kept them striving to receive those awards every day in class. Starting my fourth grade

Have you ever choked on a water bottle wrapper? Well I have, I don’t know how old I was. My mom has mentioned the story in the past. I found it humorous and so I decided to write about it. Silly children do silly things right? Well let me stop procrastinating and get to the story. On another hot day in Miami,Florida a little girl named Lauren laid bored in the living room. “I'm so bored” I would say to myself. Then mysteriously I saw a Deer Park water bottle . It seemed as if it was calling my name

My perfect Halloween would be a night of just chilling and watching a marathon of halloween movies and eating sweets. the party’s I would have will at mossy have 2-5 close friends and we would probably just play video games if there is more than 3 people there. But costume wise if I did go outside and walk around with my dogs I think I would just put on a onesie and show off my dressed up pups. If I did buy candy I would just get an assortment of different kinds. But let’s go into more detail about

I’m just an average teenage girl who doesn’t really know who she is yet. A lot of people can tell by the different groups of people I hang out with, my favorite music genres, how I act in my different classes, etc. I’m not the person who sticks out in big groups of people or anything like that, but I can’t blame myself for that. So I’m going to talk about something that wasn’t part of my average schedule. Something that was extraordinary to me at the time. One of my best friends had bought an extra

Key Question 6: Personal Response 6) In my opinion, websites are the best news source since they are more raw and unedited unlike newspapers or television. This allows me to formulate my own opinion as opposed to biases of journalists or reporters. Websites cover information in real time. When I want to get informed about a certain event, I simply look it up then and there whereas, I would have to wait for the next day to read the newspaper. Websites also report information in depth and I can

When my older brother, Thomas, was in the third grade, his teacher called my mom and demanded Thomas stop biting his pencil. She considered it inappropriate and distracting, possibly even abhorrent. Therefore, the teacher snippily claimed, she would not be able to deal with Thomas until he ceased and desisted. At our small Catholic school, not being able to deal with Thomas was practically their mantra. Really, not being able to deal with anyone who was just a little different was their mantra. It
