Game for Spanish Beginners

I often want to play the games but they get too advanced for my skill level so this game is for beginners that would like to jump in and practice!

The Game:

Let’s write a story together.
1. Read the post before your post.
2. Translate it from Spanish to English 3. Then write the next line of the story in Spanish 4. Repeat

For example. I might write ¡Hola! so the next person would translate this into Hello and write the next line of the story such as Tengo 31 ános.

So let's begin!

¡Hola! Estoy en mi casa. Es miércoles y trabajado todo dia. Estoy cansada y casada.

Given: Mi alimentos favorita es fajitas con pollo, arroz, guacamole, y frijoles sin tortillas. No puedo comer fajitas porque tengo 31 anos.

English translation: My favorite foods are fajitas with chicken, rice, and guacamole, and beans without tortillas. I am not able to eat fajitas because I am 31 years old.

Next sentence in the story:

Tomé té helado.

I'm not sure what that means? I took ice tea? - Knr1851, Sep 17, 2012
I believe tomar can also mean to drink, but is usually used for alcohol. - wbyoung, Sep 17, 2012

Pero...... and remember to end the sentence with a period since it is a statement. Nice addition to the story! - bandit51jd, Sep 13, 2012

This morning I realised I didn't have any sugar in my house.

Así salí a la tienda local para comprarlo, pero mientras caminando por la calle, vi algo muy raro...

Please remember to use proper English grammar. I've made a few corrections. You've done a wonderful job on the translation!

But now I have to go to my work right away because I have to pay my rent and buy food.

Mi alimentos favorita es fajitas con pollo, arroz, guacamole, y frijoles sin tortillas. No puedo comer fajitas porque tengo 31 anos.

in this case "para" is "in order to pay my rent....." not "because I have to pay my rent......" - bandit51jd, Sep 13, 2012
Remember plurals and gender on "mis, favoritos....son fajitas...". Really good effort on both sentences! - bandit51jd, Sep 13, 2012

So I went out to the local store to buy it, but while walking along the street I saw something unusual.

Vi globos de muchos colores, que estaban atados a un signo en la distancia.

Tea is a fantastic drink. Tea is healthy. I learned today that tea is from Asia.

Neccisito siempre azúcar con mi té!
