5th Grade Cooking for the Haitian Food for Haitian Lives Project

The Haitian Food for Haitian Lives Project is a project for Haiti that takes place at Cornerstone Learning Community , because Haiti had a 7.0 magnitude earthquake.

'' So for the cooking we, um, we cooked the carrots when we were on the playground, when we came in the carrot cooker had boiled all over the place (well not everywhere).

We got all the other cans like peas,beans,corn stuff like that, we had this really terrible can opener so we had to use Mr. Jason's knife. two people (Eathan and I) cut ourselves because the can's lids were really, really sharp.

So we needed to make onions for the dressing (because we were making Haitian salad), so some people went out side to cut them, they had goggles on because the onions made their eyes water.

While people inside made the dressing with olive oil,balsamic vinaigrette,parsley and stuff like that, then we put the onoins in.

We drizzled the dressing over the salad and mixed it up.

So then we were finished with the salad.

Some parents brought in some bake sale items like brownies. People loved it.'' Zachary Jackson said

On January 29th, 2010 we made 1400 dollars from selling beans&rice, Haitian salad, and plantains.
