Potluck in the LRR

January 31, 2019 at 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM

Location:337 St. Patrick's Building
Cost:Free

*** Join us in the Language Resource Room for a Potluck ***


Carleton language learners, language TA’s, conversation partners, language instructors…and anyone else who uses the LRR on a regular basis are welcome to attend.

The theme of the event is “cook something from the country where they speak the language that you’re learning.”  For instance, did you know:

  • “nachos” were invented by Ignacio “Nacho” Anaya in Piedras Negras, Mexico
  • archeologists recently dug up a 4000 year old bowl of noodles in Lajia, China.
  • Yorùbá people forced into slavery in the 19th century brought the dish Acarajé with them to Brazil

Of course, you don’t HAVE to bring a dish to participate.  Just show up with an appetite.

But please let us know you’re planning to come (below).

Cups, plates, bowls, and cutlery are provided.
