cc self assessment

I chose to talk about the war of 1812 info graphic, I chose this project since it is the only one I got to get extensively creative with and I like being able to be creative. I got to try a lot of new things while making my info graphic since I did it on paper. I learnt how to make paper look old, I did it by soaking my paper in hot tea and a bit of coffee and then putting it in the oven. I also learnt a lot about merry henry and the war of 1812 in the process. It was a smaller info graphic project so I did not write a lot about merry henry but in all honestly there was not much to write. There was very minimal information about merry henry and a little to much about her husband and the war, at least in the process I learnt about those things too. If I were to do this project again I would change my choice of words since with very minimal information you need to make sure its at least interesting to read.

A lab I did that really made me like foods class was  California rolls. This lab was fun and interesting, it gave everyone a chance to make there own sushi. Ive made sushi in the past and it still remains one of my favourite things to create since there is not many rules to making it. You can add just about anything to a sushi roll and its simple to do at home. Sushi is fun to make since you can make all sorts of different rolls from home, all you need is sticky rice and a sushi rolling made and some seaweed, then you can put anything you want inside. Making these sushi rolls required me to communicate and help out Gen since it was her first time. While I was making the sushi I was thinking of all the things I could put inside the roll to make it better or more interesting. And of course I also had a responsibility of making my own and helping out my partner. Overall I think the lab went good and I will defiantly be making sushi at home are often.
