My mom makes some chocolates, and orders others from various fun places like france.

But the chocolates that I was referring to, the Road Candy, she does make.

Well, technically. She uses chocolate that has already been made into chocolate. She doesn't start the process with cacao pods.

Elaine (caladhiel) | 1020 comments Day 21 - Jan 21st

Worked on: Well, I didn't start writing until 11:58pm, so I sort of bent my rule and let myself go five minutes past midnight. I didn't know what to write so I sort of played that game where you write whatever word comes into your head. :)

Last sentence written:
It's actually quite funny so I'm going to post the whole thing.

I have no idea what to write, but I'm writing because I must. Two minutes just isn't enough time. Time is essential. Time is so important yet we always want more, need more. We need more time we, need more words. One hundred fifty words to be exact. Fifty is the important part. Numbers are so fun. I love watching Numb3rs. I've watched so many now. I think it's becoming an addiction. Addiction to numbers? Numbers are everywhere. I wish I could see in numbers. Think and dream in numbers, but then I wouldn't be normal and normal's good. But am I normal? No, I don't think so. I'm not normal. I'm Elaine. I'm different, eccentric, crazy and weird, not normal and I can't spell at all when I'm trying to type fast, fast because of time. Time is faster then me. I'll allow five minutes over. Five minutes to get in one hundred fifty words. Well, actually seven, I've all ready used up five of the seven. I wonder how many I've written so far. Not many words actually, more misspelled words, but I guess those could be counted as words? One more minute. What do I write? Write about anything. Write about everything. I should really be going to bed. Sleep is necessary if not always fun.

Word count: 219

Total word count for the day: 219
Goal: Achieved!
