VINEGAR: MORE USES THAN YOU CAN SHAKE A STICK AT

MACAW MISSION
Hello! Welcome to Macaw Mission! My name is Rosie. Please have a seat. Honduras is the land of my birth. Memories of my childhood are filled with the tropical landscape with the beautiful scarlet macaws, flying in the clear blue sky over my head. With wings spanned at least three feet, it was an amazing sight. As children, we enjoyed the wild scarlet macaws. While the macaws mimicked people's words, we would sing and dance. We were happy. We laughed. It was a joyful time.

THE NIGHT BEFORE HALLOWEEN
Hello! My name is Magic! Yes, I am a black cat. As for holidays, my favorite is Christmas! Historically, black cats have been associated with Halloween. It goes back to the Pilgrims. Their witchhunt views. Go figure! While some consider black cats bad luck, in other cultures, black cats are considered lucky and bring affluence. My preference is the latter.

"Words are said. Some would believe, that words are gone. For me, words live on and on." Author Unknown (paraphrased) While in Junior High School, the slam tablets were passed around the classrooms. In case you aren't familiar with the slam tablets, let me give you a brief summary. Inside the handwriting tablet, there was a person's name that would be written at the top of a sheet of paper. Flipping through the handwriting tablet, each sheet would have a different student's name. Then, students would write anonymous remarks about that person.
