BISCUITS What you’ll need:
You open your eyes and look at the ceiling. A grin stretches wide across your f a c e . The ceiling usually doesn’t get you this excited, but today is different. To d ay launches your winter break! No more waking up early, no more throwing on a hat and rushing to class, no more cafeteria meals. You are free to wake up and enjoy a leisurely breakfast – all your own. You are sick of carefully scrutinizing the cafe t e r i a ’s “pancakes” and are definitely fed up with the usual bowl of cereal. So, on a luxurious day of winter break, why not indulge in a quick, easy, and most importantly, delicious treat for breakfast? No apron required – just grab that cup of coffee and get cooking!

What to do: Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place margarine in round 8-inch or 9-inch cake pan and melt in oven. Cut each individual biscuit into fourths. Place in pan of melted margarine. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon to your liking (feel free to add a little extra!). Bake at 400 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden. Serves two hungry students.

You’ll have all your friends wondering where your mom is hiding.
A RESCUE
M
MISSION My front door unexpectedly swung open, and Emily scrambled into the house. Taken aback, I sat my trembling friend down and gave her a glass of water.

“Natalie, we were captured – Kelly, Sonja and I – but I managed to escape,” Emily gasped between her heavy breaths. “Who kidnapped you, Emily? What are you talking about?” I asked, fear starting to well in my gut. “The King and Queen of the Mall of America.” I couldn’t believe it. The most powerful people in the universe – or at least in American popular culture, which is the same as saying the most powerful in the universe – had taken my friends hostage. “We’ve got to shaky voice. the mercy of Emily a n d I ahead would our backpacks
go after them,” I declared in a How could I leave my friends to the retail royalty? knew the strenuous journey drain us, so we loaded with enough
Gobstoppers and kiwis to last us a week. We trekked across the fluffy mountains of clouds to reach the most direct transportation to the Earth’s surface, the Great Glass E l e v a t o r. Willy Wonka’s transparent apparatus gleamed with powerful buttons that could transport us anywhere we wanted to go. I pushed the button labeled “Mall of America” and the elevator immediately shot towards the Earth. My initial fear dissipated as I stood in awe, watching small dots grow slowly into massive skyscrapers. A nearby parking ramp was filled completely with glossy red cars (apparently, I dream in color.) I stirred in my sleep after this moment of selfawareness but soon my mind became enveloped once again in the confines of the Great Glass Elevator. Our transportation came to a halt, a small “ding” reverberated off the walls and the doors opened. While I had been pondering about the vibrancy of the red cars, somehow I had neglected to see that we were not at all near the Mall of America Castle, but instead in the middle of the countryside.
