my life as an Anglo-Saxon

Hi, my name is Emily and I am the eldest girl in my family, so I have to do most of the chores but I don't mind. I woke up at the crack of dawn so I could look after my chickens. I saw lots of little cream colured spheres on the grass so I hurried down whith my basket to collect them. ''Mmhhh are those eggs''?, questioned my sister Chloe. '' Yes they are'' I stated while cracking my last egg.I raced through my eggs so I could get down to the riverbank before my little brothers woke up.

I skipped along the path with A pile of dirty clothes in my basket when I saw Bill the hunter, Bill was my favourite nieghbour because he always gave us our fair shair of wild boar or hare. ''Hello Bill'',I shouted and he smiled and gave me a pice of cloth with chunks of meat wrapped up inside. I dont always use this meat to make my stew, I also use charlie the farmers crops and pick up my own things like nettles and berries.

I had finally made it to the riverbank so I opened my basket and lay the clothes at the edge of the water and started to scrub thougrouly until I was done. I then refilled my basket and walked along the path again while I picked up some berries and nettles on the way back.

I got home and started making my stew as it bubbled on top of the fire, I was forever adding more berries and nettles until it was done. Everyone said that the stew was Deee-licious and scraped thier bowls clean. I then practised sewing my dress so I could trade it for something that I need.

The End
