Select a meal from your past that holds a special significance for you and tell its story.

Meals often knit together the threads of family, culture, history, and personal narratives. Whether it’s your grandmother’s turkey roast from Thanksgiving dinners or the spaghetti from a broken-hearted midnight binge—every recipe has a story. Describe the preparation, the flavors, the people involved, and the event surrounding this meal. Connect the sensations and sentiments elicited by these delicacies to relevant aspects of your life story.
