Holiday Traditions



        At holiday traditions there were many foods. One of the foods was Charoset. Jewish people have it on Passover which is a holiday that is not really a celebration, but its more of a remembrance. Charoset is made of apples and nuts mostly, and it is very delicious. It represents the stuff that held the bricks together that the Jews had to make. The next food is a Passover Seder plate. The Seder is a dinner that is also a service. Jews have dinner and do the service at the same time. The Charoset is part of the Seder plate. The last food that I looked at was a Greek food. It was some bread stuff with some Greek dip.

Blog #12- Website Redo

Edited Version
Original Website

The original website had several problems. The first problem was the color scheme. There were far too many colors and they did not work together. I fixed this problem by changing the many colors to a monochromatic color scheme. There is different shades of gray. The new colors keep it simple and clean. The next problem was the column organization. There was no organization for the columns and it made it very difficult to read. I solved this problem by organizing the columns into three even columns. This made the website look much easier to read and understand. Another problem was the high amount of little images. I fixed that problem by having only two pictures that made sense to the website. I also changed the headings to make it easier to understand what the reader is reading about.
