Our teacher had asked us to make an art project showing how plants eat， "I can't believe we only have two nights to finish it，" Noah said with a sigh. "I have no idea how I'll get mine done."
I didn't say anything.Not because I was nervous-I wasn't nervous at all.1 love art projects!In fact，I was so relaxed that I didn't work on the project at all on Monday night.I planned to start the minute I got home from baseball practice on Tuesday.But there was just one thing.
I forgot baseball would run later than usual because it was the day of Baseball Buddies，which happens every month，and it's a chance for us older students to practise baseball with the adorable younger kids.The second I got home，I threw the entire craft box（手工盒）onto the kitchen table，took out my "How Plants Eat" paper，and started to work.But just then，the telephone rang.
It was my friend Ollie，who said his grandmother Abucla had just made cookies and wanted to know if I'd come help decorate them.I love decorating cookies，and I love，love，love Abucla's world-famous Thanksgiving cookies that only happen once a year!
I had no choice.I had to go.Ollie and I put all the star cookies with red jam filling in one group，and all the snowflakes with white cream-cheese filling in another.It was 7 o'clock when I finally got home.I planned to work on my project right after we ate.But then another interruption hit me.
