Bisquick: Selena, they were getting tested on scour vanilla.
Buttermilk: Nuh-uh. They were getting tested on sour chocolate. (instead of vanilla. )
Snap: No, I think that it was scoured manilla.
Junior: Well, I think that it was sour vanilla!!!
Bisquick: GAAH!!!! Has anyone been keeping track?

Susan: Well, sour vanilla is a disease you get from eating old vanilla pudding. kind of like sour crop.
Selena: And I think sour chocolate is the same thing, just with chocolate pudding
Sunrise: it's Scoured Manilla, cause you get it from manilla envelope dyes.
Susan: I think it's actually scour mellow.
Sunrise: like mellow as in marshmellow? sounds like another food-related disease.
Selena: Oh, I know what it is! Soggy Willow!

Buttermilk: Our core classes are Balancing, Perching, Digging, and Take-off. My Extra-curricular class is The Art of Egglaying.

Junior: *glares at a piece of paper* NO FAIR!!!!
Bisquick: WHAAAT?!!
Junior: Your guys' worksheets are due on the 29th of each month and ours are due on the 19th of each month!!! NO FAIR!!!
Buttermilk: Junior, think of it this way: They have work over Christmas break and we don't.
Snap: Plus, Juni, we get our work later than yours. We get the same amount of work.
Bisquick: Yea, calm down Junior.
Junior: Okay, I thought that we were all assigned the same day and yours were due later than ours.
Snap: Susan, Selena, and Sunrise. Are you guys coopschooled?

Susan: here's a picture of our bus. I used to walk to school back at Prarie hill, but we are so far away that we get to ride the school bus.

Autumn: sorry, We've been so busy with school we haven't had time to post yet.
Midnite: Autumn and Auroura are in ninth grade, while I'm only in sixth.
Auroura: We ride the same bus and go to the same school as Sunrise , Susie and Sal and the neighbor's chickens. But I'm the smartest of them all.
Autumn: We go to a school called Fir tree. [whispers] we've learned how to ignore Auroura's comments, Sunrise is really the smartest, with Susie a close second.
Midnite: Right now we are learning about foraging, but we haven't gotten very far.
Auroura: We learned about foraging so long ago. SO easy!
