Who Doesn't Like Peanut Butter?


I woke up to seven of the smallest and strangest looking people I have ever seen. They were disoriented when seeing me, so I introduced myself, as did they. There were seven of them- Doc, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Bashful, Sneezy, and Dopey. I particularly like Dopey and Happy. Grumpy doesn’t seem to like me being in his house very much, but he also doesn’t seem to like anything at all. He’s coming around to me as did the rest of them when they found out that I can cook and clean beautifully. After they come home mining for jewelry, we all sing, play, and dance. Well, except for Grumpy. I’ve never had such good friends or such a good time in my life. The funniest thing happened the other day. Sneezy accidentally got a little pepper in his nose and had the hardest sneeze I have ever witnessed all over Bashful, who turned more red than the tomato soup I was making. Oh, you should have seen it. These little guys are so peculiar. They seem to be normal. Just when I started to believe it, they have some strange policy like refusing to eat peanut butter. Who doesn't like peanut butter? Now PB&Js are out of the question. I have to go. An elderly lady is at the door holding the juiciest-looking apple. Mmm. People in this town are the nicest. We’ll chat again tomorrow.

Friends Forever


Am I dead? Was it all a trick and he killed me? I opened my eyes and saw a bunch of little critters scattered around me. I’ve never heard such loud chirping in my life. I tried to get up, b
ut my body didn’t let me so I stayed down and listened. After what felt like five minutes, I opened my eyes and it appeared to be dusk. I was chilly and needed to do something quick. All of the critters started humming around me going what I presumed to be west. I felt out of my mind, but decided to follow anyways. My stomach was growling, and I saw the tastiest looking
mushroom, but my friend Alice told me to never eat them so I kept on walking. At last, we come to the cutest little cottage. It was so tiny and looked like little orphans lived there. I went inside, it was a mess. My friend Goldie once told me that she wandered into a house once and made herself at home without helping out and the residents got upset. I always like to remember things my friends tell me. I cleaned up the place and was so pooped that I went upstairs to take a nap. The beds were so small that I had to lie across three to fit my body.

No Words


I can’t even bare to tell you the horror that I have gone through today. My heart can’t take much more right now. I went with Jacob, the guard, off to the forest. He was acting weird the entire trip. He’s a sucker for a good joke. I told him the joke about the rabbi walking into a bar and he didn’t even listen to me. How rude! After a few hours by carriage, we finally stopped at, what felt like, the darkest part of the forest. I got out to look around, and when I looked back he had a weapon in his hand. I looked at him confused because I didn’t bring any hunting gear and thought he really should have warned me. Then, Jacob started sobbing. He fell to his knees and told me the craziest story about how the step-monster ordered him to kill me, and bring back my heart in a jewelry box. Who does that? I mean seriously. So, Jacob told me that he was going to put a pig’s heart in the box instead, and to go into the woods and never come back. He kept on begging for my forgiveness, but time felt still and noises were going in and out. I’ve never had this feeling before. My mind went blank. I have no words to describe this feeling of heartache, betrayal, and shock.

Excited for an Adventure


Another day, but the same dishes and clothes to clean. I’m so tired of the queen sometimes. Maybe she should come into the scullery and clean up after her own wicked messes. I’m sorry to all of you who think I’m whining. I’m just used to so much more. Before my parents died and the queen stepped up to take their places, I was the jolliest in all the land. Some of the neighbors would call me princess, but my parents would only call me Snow. I’ll digress because my past just seems so long ago. Anyways, my stepmom told me today that I’ll be going on an adventure with one of our guards. Maybe he’ll teach me what he does or show me something really cool. I’m so excited to go beyond this little town that I’ve seen my entire life. My parents used to take me on trips. Maybe I’ll even get to travel to Anaheim someday. I made a bunch of friends who now live there. No matter what is in store, I'm excited for this adventure.
