How we make chocolate

Chocolate has been made since ancient times.

First a white flower of the cacao tree gets pollinated by a insect called a midge.Next a fruit pod grows for 6 months.When the pod is ripe you open it and get the cacao seeds from inside the pod. Then you leave the seeds in a box to ferment for a few weeks.After that you put them in the sun for around 3 weeks.After 3 weeks roast the seeds for 30 mins.Next ground the seeds until the seeds are just a powder.Add sugar to the powder .Then you melt the grounded chocolate and you stir. Finally spoon it into a mould and put it in the fridge to set.

That is  how you make chocolate.

Winter fun

When it's winter I like to wear soft gloves to keep me toasty warm.
When it's winter I like to go skiing to have some cold fun.
When it's winter I like to drink hot milo when I'm thirsty.
Winter fun.

One Tuesday night

It was a late Tuesday night. I was fast asleep on my lily pad in the icy cold pond when suddenly I was drifting gracefully! Me,  Terence toad in mid air!"I can't believe it!" Luckily I had my beloved lily pad with me for good luck. I was amused when my friends joined me!

   The night sky was pitch black. we went past farmer bills house and then we sort of got caught up in his clean washing! we went soaring through granny Alice's spooky house."I'm scared" I whimpered. Alice was snoring loudly with the telly on. I decided  to watch the exiting toads on ice. After I got to see the end of the show I found myself slowly drifting through the window.

We swooped out The window and immediately started plummeting down and I was down on the ground. I had to leave my beloved lily pad behind.It was time to let go  anyway . "Boo Hoo" I cried. :( . We hopped home and caught a near sight of a detective holding my lily pad!(I know it was mine because I scratched a capital t on it). The detective was examining the pads seriously with the police!I strained my ears so I could hear  the detective speaking too the police  and saying that he would get rid of the pond  and the frogs!!!!!!!!!!!!! "NNNNooooooooooooo"!!!!!!!!!!!!! I yelled. The detective decided that he had had enough and went home.Eventually I got over it and went to bed.

The next Tuesday night at exactly 7:58 Pm  my friends the pigs did   the exact same thing at the exact same time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Weird????????????... The Tuesday night after that at 8:02 the cows were flying like there was no tomorrow! Awkward!                                                           


This is my draft piece of writing. Please leave a comment and tell me what I did well and what I need to work on.
