DSM World Food Fest

I am so excited to experience DSM World Food Festival for the first time this year. I highly recommend you also attend. You can get $1 "tastes" of food from all over the world. It would make for an interesting page in your IWB. Be sure to record your surroundings and "tastes" in drawings. The vendors will also be giving away recipe cards of what you order. Perhaps try making your favorite "taste" at home...of course documenting everything in your IWB along the way! There will also be a world bazaar and live entertainment. Food, shopping and entertainment, it does not get much better than that! Let me know if you plan to attend.

yay! I love the world food fest! Can't wait! Food can be a real fun way to experience culture: the ingredients and preparation can be related to geographic location as well as society and native customs.

If you did a page about the World Food Fest let me know so I can take a photo and post it! I did one that I will add to get us rolling!

I was playing with my camera and for the first time did a near full 360 photo stitch! I've uploaded it onto my gallery (http://gallery.me.com/melodyj#100033) as well as a couple others from the Fest. They'll probably end up in my IWB.
