Turkish Delight!

Yesterday we finished The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe in class and tried some Turkish Delight to celebrate.  The recipe is below if you want to try it out at home. There are LOTS of other Turkish Delight recipes online if you didn't like the kind we had in class.

Did you like Turkish Delight? Do you think it was similar to what Edmund tasted?  Generate a SIMILE about Turkish Delight from LWW and explain it. (example: Turkish Delight is like an intoxicating drug because once Edmund tasted it, he only wanted more.)

Turkish Delight:

1 c. peanut butter
1 c. honey
2 c. non-fat dry milk
1 c. powdered sugar
Measure all ingredients into a large bowl. Stir until well mixed. Spoon into a buttered 12x9-inch pan. Press out mixture to about 1/2-inch thickness. Cut into squares while soft. Cover and refrigerate.

Turkish Delight is like a lure because when Edmund ate it, he wanted more. Turkish Delight is delicious. The Turkish Delight Edmund ate isn't like the one we ate.

Turkish Delight is like beer because beer makes you get addicted to it and then you will lose your mind . That's why Turkish Delight is like beer .

I thought Turkish Delight was great.. I think it is a little similar to what Edmund ate. I don't think it is exactly the same because in the movie it looked like there was a little jello. I think turkish delight like 5 ponds of recess cups.

I liked the Turkish Delight and I think that it was like the one Edmund had, sweet, sugary, addicting are just a few examples. I think that Turkish delight is like an evil magic that can desroy your brain.

I thought Turkish Delight was ok! It was so sweet if I had ate more I probably would have puked. I will probably make some at home for my sisters, and I'm sure they will love it! It tasted like recess peanut butter. Thank for the Turkish Delight Mrs Humphreys!

Turkish Delight is like Satan tempting you with his poisonous words. I liked a whole lot ,but I think it would taste different because it was such a long time ago.

I thought the Turkish Delight was AMAZING! I think the Turkish Delight that Edmund had would be quite similar. The Turkish Delight is like a drug to Edmund because as soon as he had a little bit he would do anything to get more.

I did't like the Turkish Delight it was very very sweet and It looked like a lump of peanut butter. I don't think that it was like the type that Edmund.I think Edmund's was more like candy. Turkish Delight is like drinking a bowl of honey.
