Described within the vignette is a nineteen year old teenager named Brandy. Similar to girls her age, Brandy has difficulties dealing with her body image and self-esteem. For instance, she experiences hopelessness, isolation, sadness, and anxiety that all contribute to Brandy’s acknowledgement of her physical appearance. She completely overestimates her body size to the point of taking dieting pills then defaulting to purging. During the typical day, the meals are scarce but healthy compared to a bad day full of unhealthy snacking. Lastly, her family predicament is not a supportive one at that. Her mother was obese so she constantly dieted while Brandy’s father illustrated signs of sexual interest although he never physically touched her.
Drinking: A Love Story (1996) is a memoir by Caroline Knapp where she shares her experience of gradually becoming an alcoholic. She found drinking to be the most important relationship in her life; she loved how it made her feel, how it coped with her fears and worries. She chronicles some of the effort and self-realization required for recovery from this addiction, but her primary focus is on the charm, seductiveness, and destructiveness that she was able to find in two decades as an alcoholic, hopelessly in love with liquor. Her relationship with alcohol started in early teenage years and progressed through young adulthood, until she finally checked herself into a rehabilitation center at the age of thirty-four.

Quinceanera is a big part of Mexican tradition. It is the coming of age for a young girl. The transformation from this young girl into a woman happens on her fifteenth birthday. This tradition is practically the same thing as how we would celebrate our sweet sixteen.my favorite part about these celebrations is the food. It's also so many different choices to choose from and everyone comes to celebrate it. I love traditional hispanic food so it's a plus. And usually there is a pinata at them and candy is always good. This year it is my step sister's quinceanera. I'm glad she is reaching “adulthood” but i am just ready for all the food. And she also chose me to change her shoes for her. It is a weird tradition that shows the transformation
The Cajun American culinary originated from Louisiana and started to flourish through its French roots and also British roots also creole. The word “Cajun” was not always as is, it came from the word “Acacadien” according to Manythings.org. Cajun came from settlers who were named Cajuns and really had influential spices and ways of cooking their food. There are many states and countries in where Cajun cuisine is a delicious meal and highly sought for. For instance, when people think of Cajun culinary, they think New Orleans. They think Mardigras festivities. Cajun cooking is highly used in gumbo and as a spice with crawfish and also jambalaya with rice. It has been used in many diverse ways, shapes, and with diverse meats. Just like Manythigns.org “When a Cajun cook is planning a meal, he or she simply opens the kitchen door and whatever is flying, swimming, walking by or growing in their gardens may well end up in the pot”. Cajun cooking has been a form of unity between family and friends.
They are men and women from New Mexico who drive old pickup trucks. The places the green chiles come from are small towns with names like Belen, Vegunita, Willard, Estancia, San Antonia, and Socorro. Once the men and women retrieve the green chile, they roast them and begin selling. The last sentence of the poem says, “We relive this old, beautiful ritual again and again” (Baca, 44). This sentence describes how the green chiles are a tradition for so many men and women in New Mexico. For them, the green chiles have been around a long time, and selling is something these people did for a long time. Foe these men and women have a big job working on the green chiles and they gave a lot of dedication and hard work goes through this. Working and selling the green chilies is probably a family tradition that has been going on from generation to generation.

“It doesn’t have to make sense to be perfect”; this is the slogan for Patrón Tequila. Patrón is arguably one of the most popular tequila brands in the world; it has always advertised its product as “simply perfect,” without needing further explanation as to why this accusation is true or what makes Patrón so good. Jose Cuervo says, “tomorrow is overrated”, in their new advertising campaign (Diaz). This slogan speaks to those who live every day like it is their last day. These brands are both major competitors and popular in the tequila industry. Though they are alike they have differences in branding, advertising objectives, and their marketing campaigns.

It has been legal to craft wine at home since the end of prohibition, and legal to craft beer since 1978. However, it is still illegal to distill spirits for beverage purposes without going through the government ruckus to have the drinks legalized. When it comes to popularity making moonshine is easy so of course it is popular. Making any alcoholic beverage is simple, primarily because the yeast does all the work. When it comes to making moonshine the process is especially easy, you run it through a still that makes all the fragile complementary flavors really worth noticing. The liquor could be produced and sold rapidly since it didn’t entail years of aging in barrels.
The cocktail becoming the great American drink is no accident, as claimed by Kimball in her article. “Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum” had to lead somewhere, and colonists who were already naturally eager to drink as they had at home were bound to be the creative minds behind its invention. With wine difficult to obtain due to price and beer not subsisting in northern climates, the rigors and loneliness of life tended to foster a taste for spirits – something easily distilled and found in cookbooks on the shelf. Although rum had become thought of hostile, it was cheap and easily acquired. And no sooner do people get a taste for rum were they mixing it with other liquors and flavors. Thus the start of the earliest concepts of cocktails.
