Snow Cream
By Brenda B. Covert
  

1     My name is Tasha. I live in the land of snow. We have more winter here than any other season!
 
2     I like to skate on the ice and throw snowballs at boys. I like to make snowmen. I like to lie in the snow and move my arms and legs. When I stand up and turn around, I see an angel in the snow! The snow is wet and cold, but if I run and scream and laugh a lot, I stay warm. My mother makes me wear a coat, hat, mittens, and boots.
 
3     My favorite thing to do with snow is to eat it! I do not go outside and scoop it up with my hands. No! That is not the way to eat snow! My great-grandma takes snow and turns it into snow cream. It is a sweet treat! Great-grandma made snow cream for my mother when she was a little girl. Now she makes snow cream for me!
