“The way the cookie crumbles” by Claire Bortone

Submitted to Contest #71

"Can I lick the spoon, pleeeeaaaaassee?" the seven year old girl let out a long whine, tugging at the hem of her older brothers shirt, her squinted eyes going wide, pleading with the elder. Andre`, who was unamused with the little girl, rolled his eyes and said "There's raw eggs in here, you already have a cold, I don't need you getting more sick. After about three minutes of her wines, he sighed and walked over to her little station. She was helping im out by wrapping the delectable warm cookies into clear tissue paper, and tied them up wit...

“Jaemin's idea” by Emma Harris

Submitted to Contest #71

Jaemin was sitting in his kitchen thinking about something special he could do for the Christmas party. He looked around the room and happened to stop his eyes on a plate of cookies he had made. Then, he got an idea. "What if." He thought. "What if I made a giant cookie! What if I got Jun and Artemis to help me make a giant cookie! We could make the biggest cookie in the world! We could be in the Guinness Book of World Records!" Jaemin stood up to run across the street to his girlfriends bakery. He walked in to see her finishing off some...

“Unexpected Win” by Tiffany Arnett

Submitted to Contest #71

"We got this!" I exclaimed as I tried to boost up my friends' confidence. "We can totally make the biggest cookie ever! I just know we can! If we triple the recipe, maybe even quadruple it, I just know it will come out right. Come on, guys, we can do this!" Milo, Derek, Chloe and I were entered into a baking contest, specifically to see which of the four groups could make the largest cookie. I opened the box of ingredients that we were given, and took out the supplies, flour, brown sugar, butter, chocolate chunks, an array of spices fr...

“Small Town, Big Cookie” by S Kammula

Submitted to Contest #71

Sara had stuck the newspaper advertisement to the refrigerator door with the magnet from the gas station down the road. They had other magnets, but they were in the boxes that had never gotten unpacked. She read the contest rules again and sighed. When they had moved to a small town, the idea was that they were escaping the stress. They wanted to get away from the hustle and just exist for a little while. No more pre-ordering coffee online so they could skip the line, no more expensive rent that dented every paycheck they pooled, no more s...

“That's How the Cookie Crumbles” by David Dicaire

Submitted to Contest #71

Sarah and Millie just stood there watching the cool kids cajole. “We are such nerds.” Sarah looked on the verge of tears. “So, want do you want to do about it?” Millie tried to smile. “I don’t know.” Allison arrived and sighed. “Why do you guys torture each other by watching the cool kids all the time?” “I want to be a cool kid,” said Sarah. “Why you don’t get any extra money for it. They aren’t any cooler than the three of us.” Allison nodded her head. “You’re just saying that because you are a nerd like us,” retor...

Submitted to Contest #71

Chapter 1 “Lydia!!! hurry up you will be late for school,” yelled mom. I was still in my room trying to put on my tight air Jordans. I had stayed up all night again trying to finish the new series, Riverdale. I rushed down the stairs, went to the kitchen, stuffed the sweet pancakes that my mum makes into my mouth, and rushed outside just in time to catch the school bus. As I came out of the bus, I rushed to my class just in time to start Physics class. Oh wow, just the perfect subject to start the day. I sat down beside my two best friends, ...

Thursday, April 3rd, 2008 The coloured bunting stretched as far as the eye could see in all directions, fluttering gently in the light breeze.

The delicious smells of baking floated out through the open door of the Bakery and up the street, filling the noses of passers-by. As the residents of the small Texan town of Poteet approached Bella's Bakery, the sounds of ...

“Determination wins!” by Luna Lionheart

Submitted to Contest #71

They say when you have a dream you go for it. Do everything you can to achieve and don’t let anyone stop you. Because if you are truly passionate about something you won’t let it go. Well, that’s what Connor Bethany Alex and I are doing. Achieving our dreams. My ma had always told me to never give up on my dreams. Never give up was our family motto, whenever she saw me struggling with something I was passionate about she told me to not give up until all the other possible solutions don’t work. And that was one of the best pieces of advice sh...

“The Most Epic Cookie” by J.J. Evangelista

Submitted to Contest #71

"This cookie means something," said KIRIN, gloved hands hovering over the table. His trembling fingers twinkled across the open bag of flour, softened butter, eggs, sugar, and baking soda. Chocolate chips spilled intricately from the tipped yellow jar, forming a small mound. Kirin was a lanky fellow at 5' 10", with trailing locks of red hair, sun-baked skin, a tired, narrow face, and a small button nose. His worn-out eyes, hiding behind black-framed spectacles, were two colors: the right green, the left purple. He spoke with a low, trembli...

“This was supposed to be easy”,she grumbled lowly hoping no one heard her. As she cleared the ice to create a path, she watched a flyer that looked like it was dumped in a bucket of paint, blow away with the crazy wind.The Baking Contest had been the talk of town since winter had arrived. According to the old lady she met occasionally when she went for grocery, it had been a tradition for the last fifty years or something. At least one person from each house would participate. Man-she would assume Christmas had arrived if she didn’t ...
