La Poesía de la Comida
In this project, we were given the assignment to find a food dish from a Spanish-speaking country. After selecting this dish, we wrote an ode about it, and then cooked it. The recipe and ode were to be translated into Spanish.
In this project, I learned about writing poetry in Spanish. My inability to speak it fluently enough to rhyme results in a more prosaic approach to poetry. I enjoyed the exhibition, because I am a teenager and I got free food. I also enjoyed the opportunity to share my hard work on this project with the community. The most challenging part was the ode, because I ended up writing it in Spanish, and then translating it back to English. I would definitely just have translated English to Spanish if I could start all over. I am very proud of how my dish turned out. The stew was, in fact, delicious.
