*NUMBER CHANGE*
If the sentence is singular, change it to the plural; if it is plural, change it to the singular. The first participant to make the correct changes will receive the bonus mark.
For dessert, I would like to have a large glass of milk, peppermint tea, two peanut butter cookies, and some cheesecake!
When I eat all of the deserts, I would like to have a few glasses of milk, some peppermint teas, a peanut butter cookie, and several piece of cheesecake!
Good -- but be sure not to change the original meaning of the sentence. In this case, it would have been best to leave the initial phrase "for dessert" (which cannot be made plural).
