Criterions G and H

Criterion G:
As we grow older, we have more responsibilities to take care of. For a woman, it would probably be very beneficial for her to learn how to cook, especially if she plans on getting married or living on her own for educational reasons in the near future. Here, we have Saliha, an unexperienced cook. Saliha wants to learn how to cook at least a few meals so that she can get a head start. Then she'll be able to cook at home, experiment on her own, so that by the time she's married or moves out she has it all under control and won't panic or have to eat out every single night. She'll have to learn to be independent one day, and this definitely should help. If she doesn't learn how to cook, she'll either go bankrupt or she'll have to suffer eating her own food.


Criterion H:
I will have my own cooking show (series) dedicated to Saliha. Each episode will have a full meal which includes an appetizer, main dish, side dish, and desert. Some times I'll make a lunch, a breakfast, or even something as simple as a smoothie (which will not be on its own, but most likely with the main meals). I will also be making a recipe book for all the meals that I make on my show so that Saliha (and other people) can keep it, look back at it, and use it eventually. This will help her create her own meals and not always be stuck, not knowing what to cook each night. This project would take a load off her shoulder, and make her feel a little more relaxed every day knowing that she always has a cook book to look back at. And it's not just any kind of cook book. It'll be foods that she's seen me cook and that she's actually tried before, so she'll know what she's doing.
