When Miss Taylor said we needed a blindfold, it left us all curious. After morning tea we got a blindfold and sat down, for a start, I thought that we were going to watch Wonder but I was wrong.
I put on a blindfold and after a few minutes a sweet fruity smell drifted up my nose. Was it banoffee pie? Or an orange? Maybe it was a slice of cheesecake, I had absolutely no idea, but it smelled like some sort of baking. The smell wanted me to take off my blindfold immediately, but I couldn’t, I just couldn’t.
I put my hands out and touched the mystery food, it was kind of wet, and squishy, and sort of curved, definitely not a slice of banoffee pie. I didn’t touch it for long, because I didn’t like the feeling of it. It sort of reminded me of a wet, squishy slug but I knew it wasn’t one, because slugs don’t smell sweet!
I squished the mystery food and heard juice squirting out of it. The noise was quite disturbing. The juice went onto my hands and was all sticky. BLEUCH!!!
Then we had to take a bite of the mystery food. I was terrified, it might have been a worm covered in perfume. Gross! I slowly picked up the food item and took a small nibble, suddenly a ginormous wave of citrus dashed down my throat. My tongue was on fire! I shouted “ewww!” and tried to spit the food out but only a seed managed to slip out of my mouth, the bite I took of the sour food had gone down the throat already.
I took off my blindfold and looked at the fruit. It was yellow. It was curved. It was sour...it was a lemon!
