Let me say,by culture,I meant exotic and unusual cultures,those outside the usual Chinese takeout up the road or Mexican "cantina" at the mall, which are both yummy, albeit Americanized versions of traditional cuisine. Thanks again!

Anybody ever prepare medeival themed meal/dinner? I'm trying something new once month for my family..themed dinners. My daughter doesn't get too much exposure to other cultures here in the Midwest, and I believe life should be about experiences,far and near,hence our around the world since time began dinner tour! If you have any suggestions as to recommended do or don't make dishes,I'm all ears! Thank you!

This recipe is delicious! A very simple but yummy treat. I say it tastes like a pie crust, my husband says it tastes like a pop tart crust...either way, it's crumbly (not as much once cooled) and sweet, but not too sweet! -

I am 14 years old and I'm a freshmen in high school and my name is Julie. I love to cook for my family and prepare meals. When I get older I want to persue a career in neurology but I will always cook on the side. My name is Monkeygirl because I love monkeys.
