2.)   Please select a recipe you would like to make from either of these websites!
          http://allrecipes.com/   or   http://www.rachaelray.com/food.php

3.)  Open Microsoft Word 
      - Copy and Paste to Word a recipe you would like to try :)
      - Research each ingredient in your recipe using Wikipedia: 
        Examples: history of grapes & history of pecans
          http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grape   &   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pecan
      - Please list the history of the ingredient as "Old World or "New World" and country or region of origin.       
        Example:  Summer Curry Salad
        1/2 cup grapes =   "Old World" product native to Turkey
        1/3 cup pecans = "New World" product native to North America
        3 cups spinach =  "Old World" native to Asia

* We use the terms "Old World" and "New World" carefully and realize there are multiple perspectives to consider (especially that of the Native Populations of the Americas) when studying this time period of history.
