PRANDIUM LATINUM SJCP Latin classes enjoyed an authentic Roman prandium, or lunch, on Wednesday, May 26.  Students researched and prepared Roman dishes to share with their peers.  Some of the dishes included cheese cookies sweetened with honey, stuffed grape leaves, lentil dip, eggs with liquamen sauce, pear tarts, almond dates, pepones (melon) salad, rag soup, seasoned green beans, honeyed pancakes, and Roman burgers.  Sparkling grape juice replaced the Roman drink of choice, wine.  Prosit vobis!
