...All About Apples History The history of apples stretches back to the days of Adam and Eve, when it is believed to have been the “forbidden fruit” described in the Bible. Despite this long standing history, apples did not always grow naturally in New England. While the first apples are thought to have grown on the lower slopes of Tian Shan, a mountain range separating Kazakhstan and Krygystan, they also grew wild in Central and Southwest Asia, China, Italy, Switzerland, Spain and Greece. Through conquest and exploration, apples were spread when Romans conquered England and when Spaniards brought them to Mexico and South America. It wasn’t until the mid 1600’s that the Pilgrims cultivated them in Massachusetts. It is believed that John Endecott, an early governor, was the first to bring an apple tree to North America, and the first orchard was planted on Beacon Hill by a clergyman named William Blaxton. It is Blaxton who is credited for growing the first named apple, the Yellow Sweeting. Once apples were established in New England, they played an active role in everyday life. As a fruit which was easily stored through the winter, as well as being very beneficial to settlers’ health, apples were a main staple in early settlers’ diets. Despite the fact that apples were not initially from North America, and have been growing disease-free for centuries in their native habitats, the early settlers found that the long, hot summers and cold winters of New England grew apples...

Have your sinful fingers brought you trouble again? Mario: Now, now, Gloria Don't try to accuse me as they did. An apple! Yes, and they kicked me out for it for taking one single apple Gloria: So that's what you get. . . Mario: Could I guessed they would do that for one apple? When there were millions of them? We were hauling them to the warehouse. I saw one roll out of a broken crate. It was that big. Suddenly, I found myself putting it in my lunch bag. Do you remember that day I took our little girl out for a walk? On our way home we passed a grocery store that sold "delicious" apples at seventy centavos each. She wanted me to buy one for her but I did not have seventy centavos. She cried. So, when I saw this apple roll out of crate, I thought that Tita would love to have it. Gloria: We're not rich. We can live without apples. Mario: Why? Did God create apple trees to bear fruit for the rich alone? Didn't He create the whole world for everyone? Gloria: So, for a measly apple, you lose a job! Filching an apple that's too small a reason to kick a poor man out a work. You should ask them to give you a second chance, Mario. Mario: They won't do that.

...Detox Drink -1-2 liters’ of water, depending on how strong you want it to taste -Part of 1 watermelon or 1 cucumber -1 lemon or lime -A handful of fresh mint leaves (approximately 10-13) -Ice cubes Directions Slice up a good amount of watermelon into cubes, rind and all, and put them into a jug or pitcher. Cut 1 juicy lime into wedges and toss in with the watermelon. Add a handful of fresh, fragrant, mint leaves and pour in 2 liters of cool water, filling the jug all the way to the top. Let this sit overnight in the fridge and let all the yummy flavors steep and infuse the water. When you want to drink it, put in a generous helping of ice cubes, pour, and enjoy daily. Flavor Tips • Try substituting a lemon for the lime, cucumber for the watermelon, or a combination of all of them. • Pour water in first and then add the ingredients. I feel like there’s more of a burst of flavor when the water gets poured in and everything swirls around, but there’s something to be said for letting it gently infuse itself as well (the water tends to stay a bit clearer as well.) • Don’t add ice to the entire jug, and leave it on a cup-by-cup basis. If you plan on drinking it over time, this can help prevent it from getting diluted as the ice melts. • Start with 2 liters’ of water steeping overnight, and then experiment with longer/shorter times and more or less water. • Squeeze in the juice of 1 lime and/or lemon and then slice up another and add that to give it a little extra citrus...

Being a local restaurant makes it a lot easier for people around the Fargo-Moorhead area to find. Spitfire makes award winning smoked food. Having this award winning food makes it exceptionally great that it is in a classy building. It was first opened in 2007 by Tim Olson which is located at 1660 13th Avenue East, West Fargo, ND. We decided to do an advertising campaign for Spitfire Bar & Grill. This advertising campaign consists of increasing last year’s sales by 5%, keeping tallies of how many people come from bison games, and finally increasing catering venues 5% from last year. In order to do this, we decided to use digital media, print media, and transit media. For our digital media, we chose to put ads on Twitter and Facebook. As for print media we decided to use flyers.

...Review of China Buffet Restaurant I am a food lover, and I enjoyed eating in a Chinese restaurant. I tried different restaurants in our place, but what interests me most is the China Buffet Restaurant. China Buffet is located at Madison Avenue at the heart of Mankato, one of the biggest cities in Minnesota. The restaurant has a seating capacity of approximately 100 people. They have several food stations. Although the name China Buffet speaks for itself, their food stations consist of American, Italian, and Japanese food. The owner purposely includes a variety of food because of competition. I enjoyed eating at China Buffet because of its affordability, delicious food, and the beautiful setting. The price of their buffet is $10 per person, and it includes beverages. There are a variety of salads in their salad station: fruit, vegetable, and seafood. Their main meal is composed of chicken, pork, beef, and fish. For dessert, they serve ice cream, cookies, and different kinds of cakes. For their beverages, they serve soda, milk, juice, and chocolate milk, but tea is my favorite. The food is excellent so it’s well worth the price. China Buffet’s food is excellent and healthy. They have food stations for meat lovers and vegetarians. Their newly-opened sushi and hibachi bar is the restaurant’s crowning glory. Sushi and California maki is my starter with matching wasabi sauce. I tried their hibachi too, but it fills me up right away. The seafood station is...

...Pani puri Pani puri consists of crisp fried round, hollow puri filled with black chick peas and potatoes and mint sauce seasoned with spices. The combination of tangy, sour, and sweet taste of this food is what makes it one of my most favorite food in the world. When I was little, I used to eat pani puris at least once every week. Every time I hear someone mention pani puri, I get water in my mouth. Pani puri is a food that can be eaten at any time of the day- for lunch, as a snack or even for dinner. Pani puri is easily available; anyone can eat it and it refreshes your mood. Pani puri is easily available in India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and other surrounding countries. Most people eat them at mobile stalls on the side of the roads. These stalls are all over the cities, as well as in villages. There are stalls that roam around the cities and possibility of seeing one of these stalls passing by your house is very high. If you are one of those people who avoids eating out as much as possible,making puris is a very tricky and time consuming work. There are shops that make the puris and sell them. They are not very expensive, so most people can afford to buy them. All the other ingredients only take about an hour, at most, to make. But because of its widespread availability, anyone can eat it. Puris used in pani puri can be made into many sizes, So it can easily fit anyone’s mouth. It can fit anyone’s taste for most part, whether you like spicy, sweet, or sour. Two...

...Gretche Mae T. Emia HRM 212A REACTION PAPER Last week we had a restaurant tour at the same time seminar in some restaurant at Tomas Morato. We first went to burgoo. Burgoo has an American dining concept means that the food they served is big like the food that the American’s eat. It was first established in 1999. In this restaurant we held our first seminar, the speaker was the general manager of the Burgoo. She discus about the kinds of meat, herbs and spices. I was very impressed about the theme of the restaurant, it was very cool and relaxing, the ambiance and the staff are good as well. They are organized and the crew will attend to your needs and take care of you. As I set, I noticed some crayon in the table then I finally found out that, that is their unusual way of entertaining the costumer. The costumer can put something in the table while waiting for the food to be served. The first I saw the restaurant I thought maybe the food are delicious because we paid very expensive for us as to be able to attend the seminar and my first impression is true. The food are really good. The food we eat is steak with fried rice and corn veggie. Our next destination after the burgoo was TGI’FRIDAY. We have a tour inside their small kitchen. I learned a lot while we are inside the kitchen, that is my first time to see live how the staff inside the kitchen worked. And it is very helpful to us to know the activities...

...traditional kind of Chinese food. It’s not a normal restaurant having the uncomfortable chairs and normal looking decorations. It is like a castle full of happiness which made people who went there feel like they were in the heaven. Yeah! I believe that it has the most delicious food on the world. My only interest which builds up by this restaurant is eating. Whenever I go into there, my bad mood would completely go away. I could eat whatever I want to eat there without paying anything. First, you could not believe that it is a restaurant. It seems like people’s living room on the first floor. When you go to the second floor, you would feel like it is your own dining room. The third floor is kind of like people’s bedroom but with no bed in it. The wallpapers made you warm, happy and also could make you calm down. It really makes people feel like home. Whenever I feel tired I would go to the corner of the first floor, lie on the sofa, turn on the TV, and have some hot and sour soup. Great! Second, when you go there, you could smell every kind of Chinese food you could come up with. You would think that is weird, but actually it is not. These smells make you hungry and make you want to try every dish there. These smells also make you happy, and you may feel like it is your homemade food. You could not feel greasy by smelling these delicious foods. Third, before I came to America, I would eat there every day. You would ask me; don’t you feel tired of the food there? I would like to...
