RECEITAS PARA ILUMINAR A ALMA: MULHERES MIL - IF GOIANO - CAMPUS MORRINHOS

Abstract

This cookbook is not just any cookbook. It is a very special book because it contains recipes to enlighten the soul. In fact each recipe of it is a rare jewel, for it is the recipe that has the mark of a Thousand Woman in your home. I'm a teacher at the Goiano Federal Institute - Câmpus Morrinhos - for some time and I always enjoyed working with Mathematics in practice. When I was invited to teach the Mathematics module in the course of Food Processing for the Thousand Women group I was very happy, but I confess that I saw a challenge there, because we know that Mathematics is not a well accepted discipline. I then began to know them and to demystify Mathematics for them, until one day I had the objective of teaching how to calculate the cost price of a food produced by them. I then brought the recipe for a coconut cake that I always make on Sundays for my family because it is very practical and fragrant. I told them that when it's ready the whole house is perfumed and then everyone gets together in the kitchen at a special moment of conversation and family unity. They then began to comment that they also had recipes like my cake that were preferred by husbands and children. Anyway, recipes that had their mark on the family. Simple recipes, cheap ingredients but that were brands in their families and reason for pride. It was then that I proposed to them that they bring these recipes to be shared with the class. I commented the idea with the managers Alessandra Tomé and Alessandra Edna and the trainee Dayana. We then decided to gather the recipes in a book and present them on graduation day. For the execution of the project we look for Extension Director Haslley Jesus da Costa, who gave all support to the project making the cookbook possible. The recipes were then typed and we decided to put a picture of each one to illustrate the book that was to be of remembrance to all the Thousand Women. The project was successfully completed because we had the commitment of people who realized its importance.
