5 Practice Makes Perfect

5. Practice Makes Perfect. Saturday. Today, I started to paint the talent show set. Lucy came over to keep me company - and to work on her contest entries. Since I am planning the festival, I won't be entering the contests. So I wanted to help Lucy!

I gave her my yummiest cupcake recipe for the bake-off. Eva's Scrummy Cupcakes 1 cup birdseed 1 cup flour 1 cup acorns 2 slugs - Mix everything together - Bake for 20 minutes - Let cupcakes cool - Put loads of icing on top - Enjoy! I promised to help her bake after school on Wednesday. That way, her cupcakes will be super - fresh for Thursday's contest.

Next, I helped Lucy choose an outfit for the fashion show.

Then she painted a picture of her pet lizard, Rex, for the art show. That was such a HOOT! I drew a picture of Baxter wearing a bunny costume, too.

Just before bed, I helped Lucy practice some dance moves for the talent show. Baxter really liked our moves!

Humphrey did not. Ha! You two look like a couple of crazy flamingoes doing the cha-cha! He is such a squirrel-head. I didn't finish painting the set today. But I have all day tomorrow. So don't worry, Diary. ANYHOOT, this festival is going to be great!
