influential cookbook
Objective: Construct a cookbook that connects with a personal experience or influence. Research and develop a systematic order that divides and defines each section while keeping cohesion throughout the book.
Solution: Every Christmas I gather with family and friends at my aunt’s house in Lombard, Illinois. My uncle’s side of the family is Hispanic and the majority of them travel from Mexico to visit. The dinner is a big feast of Hispanic dishes including homemade tamales, green spaghetti, and tequila flan. Hispanic tiles and mosaics have always been a fascinating element that reminds me of the festivities every year.
