My Favourite Restaurant

There are a lot of restaurants that I enjoy, but my very favourite is Mary Browns.  I like Mary Browns because of three reasons. Firstly, I really love the chicken and taters.  The chicken is juicy and tasty.  I enjoy having taters and gravy on the side.  This is one of my favourite treats to have for supper.  A second reason why I enjoy Mary Browns is because they serve the best burger in the world.  The burger is actually called the Big Mary and it is a chicken burger.  I love the crispy batter and the special sauce. It is delicious.  Thirdly, Mary Browns is my favourite restaurant because when we have it, it means I do not have to cook or clean up.  All I do is quickly go through the drive thru or run inside and order my meal.  I can either bring it home to enjoy or sometimes I go inside and eat at their restaurant. This is very convenient.  There are a lot of restaurants in Bay Roberts that I enjoy, but Mary Browns is at the top of my list!

A Favourite Hobby

3 Juicy Details:

My Favourite Keepsake

I have so many toys, gadgets and keepsakes that I use on a regular basis, but I have one item that is really special to me.  Today I would like to tell you about my special teddy bear called: Socksy.  Socksy is a grey little creature made from knit wool socks.  He has two bright blue eyes, a black nose, a red button mouth, and three bright yellow and orange buttons on his belly.  He is special to me because when I was five years old, my mother brought it back from Toronto as a special keepsake for me.  I slept with him every night and many times my mom had to sew him back together.  He now sits on my nightstand as a reminder of when I was a little girl.  Having a keepsake or teddy bear can be special no matter how old you are.
