The Treehouse Children

Chapter 7-A day of events

When the children awoke Aurora and Lilith got straight to cooking the eggs, they climbed down the ladder and the day before they had created a circle of rocks where they'd place wood in the middle and start a fire. It would be better if they had a pot to cook but that wasn't a priority. The children ate blackberries and the rest of the eggs then got straight to work. The girls and Carter headed to the farm to find more eggs they collected 10 more, on there way back they found a farmer who offered 2 bottles of milk for their weaved basket. Of coarse they would trade because the baskets were so easy to make! They spent more time later making 4 more baskets so in total they still had 5, including the basket Lilith made before. The children had a great eventful day. Zachary on the other hand had a decision to make. When he arrived at the doctors house, his wife the gardener had work that needed to be done in the garden. Zachary of coarse helped and after the wife told him to keep all of the vegetables he harvested. She gave him a backpack to keep to put the vegetables in. He also made 5 more dollars in total he had ten dollars now. Before Zachary went home he visited the grocery store. In his backpack he had radishes, carrots, onions, red peppers, and potatoes! He knew he should buy something nice from the store but what should it be? When Zachary returned home he emptied the bag and placed the bag in the corner he knew it would come in handy. He also surprised the family with salt and pepper with shakers. The girls placed them in the middle of the table. Zachary had also bought a big bowl to cook with and five cups and plates. Everything was coming together nicely. Carter set up the table and placed ever seat with a plate and cup. The children had the best dinner they had ever had! Aurora had made a stew and none was left afterwards. The children went to sleep with full stomachs.
