my classes' food memories


As I mentioned, we didn't have class yesterday and instead we had an alternate learning assignment (beside my self assigned apple picking). The assignment was to make or buy a candy, cookie, or confection that had a significant impact on your life and tell the story while sharing the food with the class. Above is the box of food memory samples including a family recipe brought from Greece over 100 years ago, a variation of a childhood summertime favorite, and a weekly family breakfast tradition (with the accompanying coffee!!).

Food has an incredible capability to tell a story in a language that everyone speaks. How cool it is that this is my life.
