Peteseta's Discovery

When I got here  I saw jam and peanut butter and butter and plates and it looked like a cafe. I was one of the  bakers. Abhi and Junior was the bakers too so was Sarah. We were  baking four breads each in the toaster and we had some milk. Some of the class was playing with toys. It made me happy. I was siting next to  John and Hainite.
