Prompt: Describe a meaningful family tradition unique to your culture and explain how it mirrors or contrasts with the cultural identity themes of expectations and roles in "Girl" by Jamaica Kincaid.

 A family tradition unique to my culture is Sunday dinners. This mirrors the expectation in "Girl" by the person in charge of cooking. It shows how important because not only are you cooking for yourself, you're cooking for others, so you have to be precise. It also mirrors because most of the expectations given to women are to make other people happy, and that's exactly what Sunday dinner does.

Growing up they taught me alot and put me through learning experiences so for that im grateful.
