Welcome to Litsy!

Took a zoom class with Edible Madison using their cool kit.

Pete Brown is a food and drink commentator and food award judge. This is a fascinating look at 9 dishes that have come to be regarded as quintessentially British (including curry, cream teas and fish and chips) with Brown mixing comment on their development, place in British society, questions of authenticity and what they say about British class and culture with his own relationship with food, having grown up working class in Barnsley.

My favorite scene was when they made the dough, wow! Lotta and her shell phone save the party. But how could we make this party safe for the anchovies? No time for deep thoughts #readforfun

"Bee-bim bop, bee-bim bop, / Mix it up, mix it up, / Rice, and beef, and spinach, too, / Stir it up and start to chew."

This book can be used to introduce children to cultural diversity through poetry. It‘s a great way to explore rhythm and repetition in writing, and can be paired with a discussion on the importance of family traditions and different cultural practices. Teachers can also have students write poems about their own family traditions.

"Bee-bim Bop!" is a joyful, rhythmic poem about a Korean family preparing a traditional meal together. The poem captures the excitement and energy of cooking, while also introducing readers to aspects of Korean culture. The catchy, repetitive lines create a fun reading experience for children.

Enjoyable memoir of a girl growing up in India in a large family that was very much into English ways also. Includes recipes too!
