Mid-Term Idea One For my first idea I was thinking of making beef enchiladas with a side of queso flameado. The enchilada recipe is one my family has used for years, but I also relate to it personally because of the combinations of the dry tortillas which relate to my sarcastic humor.

Final Proposal         My final project revolves around the meal in the food life cycle presented to us at the beginning of the semester. This project also contains the thoughts of my mental health in regards to my OCD. OCD is obsessive compulsive disorder, I was diagnosed at 6 and have had it for fourteen years. My life is one giant game of trying to reach a perfection that I will never attain due to this, not only do I have OCD I also have a secondary form of OCD known as germaphobia which growing up and somewhat to this day has greatly impacted my day to day life to the point where I can't even shake a persons hand when I meet them.          I will be sculpting with ice cream in class that will be eaten by the viewers while I preform an original piece of spoken word or another form of spoken word. I will begin by washing my hands four times as due to my ocd I do things in fours. Then I will move to a silver empty bowl filled with nothing but an ice cream scooper. I
