back to the Down to Earth

What do you mean, "IF" we have a "DIFFERENT CULTURE?" Don't we all have a culture? Why the "if"? And aren't all cultures different from each other?

Some people are simply American, nothing else, or a mix of so many different cultures they don't know which is which. I know a couple people like that. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a second language.

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. You're right, we all have different cultures. Sorry again.

Okay, so I'd like to talk about Arab culture. One thing we love doing as a family is making stuffed grape leaves. We pick the leaves straight from our garden, and my mom, dad, grandma, sister, and I roll them. It's really fun!

I'm Dutch. My town was founded by the Dutch and so we have tulip time which celebrates Dutch culture. We dress up in authentic Dutch costumes and wear wooden shoes. It's super fun!
