Sara's writing from Wednesday

This piece of writing was written in response to watching the video from www.thekidsshouldseethis.com about the astronaut making a meal in space.

Have you ever seen a tortilla with a mind of its own? 
Hey! Come back here you floating flapjack!

Every time I turn around the damn thing is back over my head! I'm so hungry. All I want to do is prepare a delightful, nutritious and delicious smoked sardine sandwich. I've lost it! There's pieces of fish on the roof, guacamole on my forehead and quinoa up my nose.
"Go to space", they said.
"It'll be fun", they said.
"Sooo much fun", I mutter as I pick the quinoa out of my nose.
