Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

This Sunday I will go for lunch at my parents' house after months without seeing them. I could not imagine spending Easter without our annual family meal. As a starter [US: appetizer], I hope that my mother prepares some good cooked vegetables. As a main course [US: entree], I'm sure that we'll eat roast lamb like at Christmas Eve dinner. For dessert, I hope that we eat an Easter cake since it is the most traditional dessert of this day. Before lunch, we will go to mass and we will have an aperitif in the village bar. It will be a very relaxed day with the family but I will not get bored at all with all the people that I have to see.
