This blog entry would have to be my writer's choice for the portfolio. I am not going to claim that it's my pinnacle masterpiece --no. I just had a lot of fun with it. It's purpose was to explore a tradition related to food in our culture, and the most prominent to me was, of course, related to work. What I liked best about this was that I didn't need to follow my usual format of intro, examples, explanation, conclusion; I just let my thoughts flow. I don't think the voice is too chatty either, because it stays on topic with every sentence. It uses a conversational tone like, “ Looking at the trends, we (the “sandwich artisans”) are usually able to pin-point the “spontaneous” cravings people get for our food. Here's an easy one: a sunny day.” Unlike most of my writings, this paragraph sounds like I'm writing because I really want to. That doesn't mean I despised writing the other pieces, rather, this one shows a side of my voice that would have been missing otherwise.
