Brandon1 In every person’s day there comes a time when it needs to be spiced up by some unordinary event just because it was getting too boring. Well it goes the same way for the lunch I had today with my class because what my mom decided to bring in was so dull and original that it kneaded some seasoning. So being the 8th grade genius I am, I came up with my own special sauce to try to make the ordinary dish sparkle, and it turned out that what was supposed to only be the spark of a new recipe was the beginning of one very spicy day
