Entry #8 The wonderful word of rice

Hey y'all. On this blog I will be talking about rice. 
 let's dive into the wonderful world of rice! Rice is a staple food that many people enjoy all around the world. It's a versatile grain that comes in different varieties, each with its own unique characteristics and flavors. One popular type is white rice, which is the most common and widely available. It has a mild taste when cooked. Another variety is brown rice, which is a bit nuttier in flavor and has a chewier texture. Brown rice is considered to be a healthier option because it retains its natural bran and germ, which contain valuable nutrients. 


Now, let's talk about some delicious dishes you can make with rice. One classic is fried rice, where cooked rice is stir fried with vegetables, protein like chicken and various seasonings like soy sauce and garlic. It's a simple yet flavorful dish that can be customized to your liking. Another popular rice dish is risotto, which originates from Italy. Risotto is made by slowly cooking Arborio or Carnaroli rice with broth, onions, and sometimes wine. The result is a creamy and rich dish that can be enhanced with ingredients like mushrooms, or seafood. If you're looking for a comforting meal, you can't go wrong with a bowl of rice and beans. This dish is popular in many Latin American countries and is typically made by beans with onions, and spices, then serving it over rice. It's a hearty and nutritious combination that is enjoyed by many. Of course, there are so many more rice dishes to explore, from sushi rolls to paella to biryani. The world of rice is vast and full of delicious possibilities. Whether you prefer it as a side dish, the base of a main course, or even in desserts like rice pudding, rice is a versatile ingredient that can be enjoyed in countless ways. So next time you're in the mood for a satisfying meal, consider rice into your cooking. It's an affordable and easy to prepare ingredient that can elevate any dish. Get creative in the kitchen and have fun exploring the endless flavors and textures that rice can offer.

Entry #4: IMPACT OF SOCIAL MEDIA ON MENTAL HEALTH

 Hey guys, on this entry#4, I'm going to be talking about impact of social media on mental health.  social media can have positive effects. It allows us to connect with friends and family, share experiences, and find support.  It can provide a sense of belonging and help combat feelings of isolation. We can also use social media to raise awareness about important causes, like the adoption of senior and physically challenged dogs from local shelters, as I mentioned in the ad I shared.  However, there are some potential negative effects to be aware of. Social media can contribute to feelings of loneliness as we often see others' highlight reels and compare ourselves to them. It can also lead to a distorted self image, as people tend to present their best selves online.  Cyberbullying and online harassment are other concerns, which can have a significant impact on mental well being.

#Entry 5 Mayhem

After watching the Allstate Mayhem commercials, I've chosen one to analyze for my blog post which is the Beauty blogger . I'll start by discussing the rhetorical strategies used, such as humor, exaggeration, and relatability. Then, I'll delve into how these strategies effectively convey the message and engage the audience. This ad points to go beyond just selling a product by creating an emotional connection with the audience. The author wants the viewers to experience empathy, feel inspired to adopt senior, physically challenged, and unique dogs, and understand the importance of supporting the cause.  The ad promotes a lifestyle of compassion(suffer together) and responsibility towards animals, emphasizing the value of giving these dogs a loving home. The target audience is likely pet lovers who are open to adopting dogs from shelters. The ad reflects American culture's appreciation for the emotional impact of pet adoption. The design of the ad, including the images, m
