Spanish speaking country project Is project was about learning about Spanish speaking countries and learning about what kind of culture they have in that country. I chose Cuba and I got to learn a lot about my country and I also got to learn about some of the main dishes in cuba. What I found out is that Cuban food is really good!

Espolvorea con canela An ode to Sugar Cameron Oh dulce azúcar cómo me recuerdas la hermosa vista del primer día nevado del invierno. Como tu olor celestial me recuerda de un vaso frío de té helando en un día caluroso del verano. Puedo recordar la primera vez que probé tu sabor tan delicioso que es como comer cualquier cosa que se puede imaginar. Sonidos de azúcar como les dulces de roca siendo Aplastados entre los dientes. Azúcar es azúcar. Oh sweet sugar how you remind me of the beautiful sight of the first snow day of winter. How your heavenly sent reminds me of a cold glass of ice tea on a hot summers day. I can remember the first time I tasted it's ever so delightful taste which is just like eating anything that you could possibly imagine. Sugar sounds like rock candy being crushed in between your teeth. Sugar is sugar What I learned from translating this recipe that it is a very simple dish and is still REALLY good, and what I learned from writing my ode is that you have to really injoy what ever it is your righting about to make your ode really good. My recipe came from Cuba and it is muy Bueno! What I would do next time on this project is become partners with Eli and we would make a Cuban dinner. He would make his sandwich again and I would make my dish again and then combine it so it was like a meal that people could have. What I am most proud of how everyone's food tasted. Everything was really good.
