she cried with remorse. "How cruel can the savanna be?" she questioned the savanna itself. Two thoughts filled the mother's mind, an ending to her everlasting grief, and the dismay the crocodiles create. Many animals overheard the mother hyena, and avoided the river.
As a three years old toddler, she boiled her own hotdogs. She grew up trying to safety pin torn shoe soles together and invent her own braces to fix her bucked teeth. Even her fun activities were from a source of imagination: “When Dad wasn’t there we invented our own games” (Walls 54). From family time games to feeding empty stomachs, the Walls children were forced into situations to make them rely on themselves. Although the situations the children were forced into to that enabled them to be self-sufficient were less than ideal-such as when Jeannette suffered severe burns from cooking her own food at such a young age-without those dire moments she may have grown up to be more like her sister, Maureen.
Fanny Cradock Phyllis Nan Sortain Pechey (26 February 1909 – 27 December 1994), better known as Fanny Cradock, was an English restaurant critic, television cook and writer frequently appearing on television, at cookery demonstrations and in print with Major Johnnie Cradock who played the part of a slightly bumbling husband. Fanny Cradock came to the attention of the public in the dowdy post-war years of the 1950s, championing the aspiring housewife, and an exotic approach to cooking. She famously worked in various ball-gowns without the customary cook’s apron, averring that women should feel cooking was easy and enjoyable, rather than messy and intimidating. In her early anonymous role as a food critic, working with Major Cradock under the name of ‘Bon Viveur’,Fanny introduced the public to unusual dishes from France and Italy, popularising the pizza in England.She is also credited as the originator of the Prawn Cocktail. She and Johnny worked together on a touring cookery show, sponsored by the Gas Council, to show how gas could be used easily in the kitchen, and as their fame increased, Fanny’s shows transferred to television, where she enjoyed 20 years of success.

They got the best food the money that they had could buy and feasted until they were stuffed. The food was a symbol of positivity and a little piece of goodness in the world. Symbols, are used throughout the story repeatedly through each of the girl’s lives. In the chapter, “ Rice Husband ,“ there is a marble table , very poorly designed by Harold, lena’s husband. The end table was nicely decorated with a black vase, but was destined to fall.
The nurse looks at me in concern and explains to me that not only did I cut my foot but I also exposed that cut to bacteria, parasites, and fungi from the cattle farm that is just upstream from the lake. As I sit there listening to the nurse explain all these things to me. I start to feel sore all over my shoulders, arms and back. I look down at my skin after my eyes have adjusted from the sun and see that my skin is a nice pink/reddish color. Great, I have a cut on my foot that has been exposed to who knows what and now I have a sunburn!
After months of war, people of La Paz were in a desperate situation, as food and water were hard to come by at the time. They had to eat even cats and dogs so they didn’t die of starvation. Only in Paulita’s kitchen food was never lacking, thanks to the clay figure she had put in a little altar, which had miraculously provided the maid with enough dried meat, corn and biscuits. In reality, it was Isidro who had given her these provisions, as he was in the indigenous army and therefore able to secretly enter the city. When Doña Josefa became sick because of malnutrition, Paulita decided to share her food with her and the governor, who wanted to know where she had gotten it from.

Julia Sanford January 5, 2014 Period 3 Satirical Analysis Satire is used in “A Modest Proposal” by Jonathan Swift, “Advice to Youth by Mark Twain and as an additional resource, satire is also used in the television show “The Simpsons”. “A Modest Proposal” was written in 1729 and during that time most of the people in Ireland lived in poverty due to England’s control over them, so Swift comes up with his “modest proposal” which is to eat babies and sell them. He mockingly states that it can solve all of Ireland’s problems. By presenting his proposal he uses a great amount of satire such as “A young healthy child well nursed is at a year old a most delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food”. Also “A child will make two dishes at an entertainment for friends; and when the family dines alone, the fore or hind quarter will make a reasonable dish, and seasoned with a little pepper or salt will be very good boiled on the first day, especially in the winter”.
The different between whole food market and regular super markets are completely different. My group and I went on a journey to compare the prices of Whole Food and ShopRite market to feed a family of 4 for a Sunday of 3 meals breakfast, lunch, dinner and 2 snacks. The reason of this experiences is to gather information to see which market have better prices and quantity to feed this family. In my group we have 4 African American girls 1 Nigerian and 1 Hispanic so we decide that each culture pick a meal to learn what each other eat and buy from the market. We learned that the Hispanic girl cooks every day and for a family of 8 so when she go to the market she buy a lot of meats and vegetables that last for a week.
