LET’S PRAY AND START!

ICE BREAKER – FOOD & ME

1. Introduce yourself and come up with three statements about food in your life (e.g., “I am allergic to bananas.” “I always get my strawberries from Trader Joe’s.” and “My favorite food is spinach.” etc). Two of the statements are to be truths and one is to be something that did not take place, but just as well could have.

2. Each person gets a turn saying their three statements, everyone else have to guess which of the three statements is a falsehood.

WHAT IS BRUNCH?

Brunch is a combination of breakfast and lunch eaten usually during the late morning but it can extend to as late as 3 pm. Brunch originated in England in the late 19th century, served in a buffet-style manner, and became popular in the United States in the 1930s.

The meal usually involves standard breakfast foods such as eggs, sausages, bacon, ham, fruits, pastries, pancakes, and the like.

The dim sum brunch is popular in Chinese restaurants worldwide.

EGG3 ） Over medium （煎两面有点熟又不太熟的荷包蛋）Over medium is the next step after over easy eggs: they’re fried, flipped, and fried a little longer, so that the edge of the egg white is slightly brown. The egg yolk is still runny, but has a thicker film （薄膜） .
