Freezer burn may have wasted more ice-cream than sidewalks. If you don’t know, freezer burn is when ice crystals form on the surface of ice-cream. These ice crystals can ruin the texture and flavor of the ice cream. But you can prevent freezer burn. Since freezer burn is caused when melted ice-cream is refrozen, rather than eating your ice-cream from the container as it melts, scoop your ice-cream into a bowl and put the container back in the fridge immediately. Doing this ought to help you solve your issues with freezer burn.

“Which team do we play in soccer this week?” asked Tim.

“The Ravens,” replied Nathan, sighing. “We played them earlier in the season and they outscored us by three goals.”

“That’s not fair!” moaned Tim. “If we already played them, why do we have to play them again?” Nathan shrugged. “I don’t know.”

“I think we should just forfeit the game now,” said Tim. “We have no chance of winning at all.”

Aiden was rummaging through the kitchen cupboards, looking for an after-school snack for himself and his friend, Evan. He spotted a bag of marshmallows.

“Close your eyes and open your mouth!” Aiden directed.

“Why? What are you going to do?” Evan asked skeptically.

“You’ll see...” replied Aiden, while Evan obeyed.

Aiden plucked a marshmallow out of the bag and aimed for Evan’s mouth. The marshmallow hit Evan in the nose, and both boys started laughing. Evan opened his eyes. “Let me try!”

A few minutes later, Evan had a new idea. “Hey, let’s have a contest to see who can fit the most marshmallows in his mouth!” Soon both boys looked like chipmunks and were laughing hysterically.

“I thought you said the game was at 5:00,” stated Mom, as she pulled the car over to the curb beside the empty soccer field. “Where is everybody?”

“Maybe everyone else is running late,” suggested Tom.

No, we’re the ones running late. It is 4:45 now, and the game is set to start in fifteen minutes. Someone should be here by now,” Mom insisted. “Are you sure this is the correct day and time?”

“Yes, I know this is right because Coach Carter said ‘see ya at 4:40’ when I left school today,” Tom replied.

“Is this the correct location, then?” Mom asked.

Tom bit his lip. “I think it’s here. Let me text Ben and find out what is going on.”
