Peach Cobbler
ETHNICITY
Peach cobbler is one of my family’s favorite deserts. Mainly, because of the great taste, but also for the fact that this desert is served on Sundays and holidays. My family anticipates the sweet taste of Grandma Sue's famous peach cobbler. My mother showed me how to cook this dessert when I was about 10 years old. Unlike most pie dessert recipes which can be difficult to bake, this cobbler dessert is easy to create. My grandmother grew up in Georgia around the 1940s. My grandmother did not have much but she said they made due of what they had. Peach cobbler was one of the most inexpensive deserts, but also one of the yummiest. My grandmother said that her mother would have left over dough and she did not believe in wasting anything so she would take the dough and cut up peaches and add sugar. My grandmother and her siblings would request this desert as often as they could. So, my great grandmother would make it for them every Sunday and on holiday. Ever since then, peach cobbler has been a part of my family’s traditions. Grandma Sue's peach cobbler continues to show up at every Sunday dinner and holidays, but with an extra special touch from Grandma Sue.
My grandmother special ingredient for her peach cobbler:

4 cups love 5 spoons of hope 2 cups loyalty
2 spoons tenderness 3 cups forgiveness 4 quarts faith 1 cup friendship 1 barrel of laughter
Take love and loyalty, mix thoroughly with faith. Blend it with tenderness, kindness and understanding. Add friendship and hope, sprinkle abundantly with laughter. Bake it with sunshine. Serve daily with generous helpings. Then you should have a scrumptious peach

Smith tells us that Gig had many recipes for Appalachian dishes like venison bean soup and meat loaf. Some of these recipes were cooked for her family; some were cooked for social events. Gig herself couldn’t eat rich foods, however, she cooked for her family every day. Smith’s father never failed to praise her meals. Gig grew up on Chincoteague an island off the coast of Virginia; therefore she had many recipes for seafood dishes. The recipes for many fancy desserts, such as Lady Baltimore Cake, were passed down to Gig by wealthy family members. Lee’s favorite was the spicy pimiento cheese. Which was a simple dish that…

    One night in 1937, Cobb was weary of the steady hot-dog-hamburger diet, and prowled hungrily in his restaurant's kitchen for a snack. Opening the huge refrigerator, he pulled out this and that: a head of lettuce, an avocado, some romaine, watercress, tomatoes, some cold breast of chicken, a hard-boiled egg, chives, cheese and some old-fashioned French dressing. Since 1937, more than 4 million Cobb salads have been sold at Brown Derby restaurants, according to the Brown Derby Restaurant Group, which, now that the two original Hollywood restaurants have closed, is what the company calls itself. It licenses the restaurant name for merchandise (including bottled Cobb salad dressing), as well as to Disney, which opened a reproduction of…

    After reading the novel, “James and the Giant Peach”, by Roald Dahl, I came to the conclusion that I do not recommend this book. One of the main reasons why I do not recommend the novel is, that most of the characters are insects as appose to humans. I really was not able to relate with the characters, and in my opinion that is a very important aspect to a story. For example, “‘I have a lot of legs’ said the centipede, ‘one hundred to be exact.’ (Page 35)” It is very difficult to relate to a full conversation about the number of legs belonging to someone.…

    Or, if you, like me, are a former attendee of GA (Girls in Action) or presumably RA (Royal Ambassadors) camp, you can sing a little song to come up with all seven. “’Cause the fruits are love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” This is in response to the statement that the “fruit of the spirit’s not a….” fruit of choice. The ones coming to mind at the moment are “watermelon” and “cherry” simply because I can remember the motions that go along with them. Of course, if you want to be either a watermelon or a cherry, “You might as well hear it: you can’t be a fruit of the Spirit.” This song can go on for quite some time, especially if the camp counselors are trying to stall and entertain a large crowd of girls who are about to beat down the doors to the lunch hall if they aren’t fed soon.…

    Jamcracker was able to identify the market gap and had the advantage of being the first mover. It also concentrated on small & medium business segment and was able to achieve a large customer base. Companies were willing to rent out IT services rather than buying as it was more cost effective. It had created all in one platform for customers or firms by providing single point for access, security, administration etc. This facilitated hassle free transactions while accessing different ASPs. It charged a modest setup fee and charged the customer according to the use of the application which is dynamic and helps in maintaining transparency. The acquisition cost of customers using their direct sales force is proven costly and so firms were moving towards Jamcracker. ASPs cannot meet the economies of scale if they introduce multiple services so they aren’t a competitor and are willing to work in hand with Jamcracker. So currently there is no viable substitute. Also the competitors would take a while to get into the market by which Jamcracker would be an established player. So, the Jamcracker business model is quite viable.…
