An Excerpt from a Writing Project

From The Somewhat Perilous Plot of the Patriotic Mosquitoes

The Patriotic Mosquitoes ended up going to the nearby Mexican restaurant to order fajitas, since that was what they wanted before. Steak and shrimp fajitas at this one Mexican place, known commonly to man as That One Mexican Restaurant, were what the Patriotic Mosquitoes had their palates set on.

“Still in the mood for fajitas?” Sam asked Lisa.
“Absolutely,” Lisa replied.
“So, I believe this is the place.”
“What is the place?”
“That One Mexican Restaurant,” Sam replied.
"Funny. It doesn’t sound Mexican,” Lisa said.
“No, silly. It’s Spanish. And no the name is not in Spanish.”
“Oh!”
“Silly buffoon.”
“Oh silly me!”

When they all walked inside the place, some very authentic mariachi music was playing over the speakers. In about an hour and thrity minutes, a real live mariachi band was going to come to the restaurant and play some very authentic mariachi music, and the Patriotic Mosquitoes were thinking about staying over for a bit of time.

​An afternoon well spent.
