8th Grade Latin Students Cook Roman Food

8th grade students cooked some Roman food this week! From "dormice" (...no actual dormice were harmed in the creation of these Latin projects) to ancient "pancakes" to really embracing the ancient uses of honey, 8th grade Latin students did their best to follow recipes from Apicius' de re coquinaria. Some adjustments were made and several creative liberties were taken, but overall students had a blast preparing food, sharing it with their classmates and proudly declaring minced meat the winner (though Romans would not have enjoyed theirs on Pepperidge Farm rolls)!! ~ Meg Davis
