Cooking


Cooking can be a great way to spark creativity. Trying new ingredients with a recipe is a form of creativity. It does take some knowledge of cooking in order for creativity to show. The recipe is not the only thong that is creative about cooking. Cooking a frozen pizza does not involve a lot of creativity but turning that pizza into something of your own then cooking it, that does involve creativity. The way that you present your meal can be creative, even the way you eat your meal can be creative. The are different ways that the food can be served and different types of items that food can be served on. Many chefs consider creativity to be the most important ingredient to cooking. I think that cooking with set ingredients is like tracing a piece of art work, not that there is anything wrong with that. I just don't think that it is creative.

The Office



The Office is a television show that airs on NBC. It is a show that depicts the everyday lives of office employees in the Scranton, Pennsylvania. The company that the employers work for is Dunder Mifflin Paper Company. In my opinion writing the script for this show involves a lot of creativity. The writers constantly think of new and hilarious ideas to keep their audience attracted to the show. The comedy in the show is what keeps me watching and to keep thinking of new jokes for the show takes a lot of creativity. A script is written for each episode of The Office however, actors are given a chance to improvise during the shooting of some scenes. Improv is not easy and it takes a great deal of training. I find things to be more funny when they are thought of on the spot. The success of the show depends on the creativity of the writers so they are forced to be creative.
