Cost of Lemonade
The variables, constants, and perishables of the Lemonade Stand Game are very important to figure out the cost of the lemonade. The variables include the lemons, sugar, and the ice are variables. The variables play a part in to making what people like and ultimately decides the cost of your lemonade. The constant is the cup. No matter what you change in the amount of variables you use, the cup will always stay the same. The perishables is the ice and lemons. The lemons can rot and the ice can melt so you will need to buy more. Which will also contribute to the price per cup. I learned throughout this game to not buy a lot of ice, and make sure that you make the lemonade to please and draw customers in .
20 % December
I think that my partner and I shelbe did a good job of exploring our options this month for our twenty percent. We ended up talking to a few groomers and vets to get more help with ideas. We didn't end up figuring out the cost or set up of a hotel, but we are still trying to do it. We made a few things for the plan of how we are gonna do a hotel, but we are finding that the Powell community isn't as in need for this idea as we anticipated in the beginning. We figured out that Billings could use one though, usually any dogs or cats that don't get adopted here in Wyoming go to animal shelters in billings or Cheyenne. Billings is closer, so we are gonna explore up there.

Communism- you don't have a choice you are to expected to learn more about your special skill and use it to better your country
All- you are expected to support your community

Lemonade Blog
We were given lemons, sugar, ice, water, cups, and the dishes/utensils to make lemonade. We made the lemonade more our teacher. Me and my partner first thought that our lemonade had way to much lemon in it so we added more water and sugar to sweeten it up. It was sweet enough to us so we asked our teacher to taste it and he said it was still to sour, but he doesn't like sour anyway, so we added more sugar for him and he ended up liking it. Then we made some more lemonade to fit other peoples taste. Like a sweeter one, sour one, watery one, and a really cold one. We didn't record any results on how people reacted because we were tasting everyone else's, but I think it was good.
