“It was a cold windy night. I could see my breath as soon as I stepped outside in the crunchy snow. My thick boots protected me my warm feet from the harsh weather. I didn’t care how bad the weather was, I could already taste grandma’s delicious, flaky blueberry pie. Since she was just next door, I could smell the sweet aroma of the warm blueberries baking and began to walk faster.”
