During the Enlightenment, cook books and sharing recipes through generations wasn’t common, before the first cook book was published, by the author Sandra Sherman. Cook books were available to all but many chefs didn’t like this idea at first. Eventually, everyone so the benefits and felt anyone could learn cooking through cook books. They ate more meat and potatoes at this time, if they could afford it. Fruits weren’t easily accessible or affordable for all. Vegetables weren’t given the importance like they have today. Another popular meal was boiled oatmeal with butter. Dinner was the most important meal during this time period and the meals were typically two courses along side dessert. The rich would have 5 to 25 items for dinner. During the enlightenment there was a more formal way of dining. They dined as per the French method of having servants, butlers, chefs preparing and serving the meals.

They were only taught things that were considered to pertain to woman.

During this time people would abuse the power of religion and manipulate others. In 1666 the Irish Stroker visited London and found loopholes to prove that his powers to heal came from God: "God may, to abate the pride of the Papists (that make miracles the undeniable Manifesto of the truth of their Church) make use of a Protestant to do such strange thing” This made the world think of everything more objectively and Scientifically investigate the new world in a different way.

One of the first cookbooks was made by Sandra Sherman who writes about home cooking. Cook books were very unique at the time because anyone that can read could follow the simple instructions and make a meal. Fruits were very rare at the time you you couldn’t get a ton of them. Vegetables were secondary to meat and potatoes. Meat was involved in every single meal weather you were rich or poor. For dessert, they had chocolate, but that was for the rich. Gruel was a very common for dessert. It is oatmeal with a little bit of butter. Every meal was served with 2 courses and a dessert. Woman spent over 1 hour getting ready for dinner every single day.

The start of Enlightenment began to cause the ending of the Catholic Church and began scientific advancements. It defended human rights against Tyranny and protected peoples own individual  opinions on current matters. People began to think for themselves rather than be told what to think and Analyze what was going on around them socially. It began the start of the church having less and less power over peoples individual and independent thoughts. People used reason and fact to prove what they thought rather than what the church had told them to do.

This website is very helpful in the area of art during the Enlightenment period. I consider art to be apart of daily life because it is done and seen every single day. The emergence of architecture and sculpting as forms of art. Corinthian columns started to become popular for houses, compared to a plain old house.

During the enlightenment, the idea of thought developed massively. The people of the day started to think about more things and think about the way they think about things. They went deeper then the surface and analyzed everything they did and everything around them. This was a time that showed the power and nature of the mind and the decline in religion.

During this time people started to abuse the power of religion and find loopholes to manipulate others. An example of this was the "Irish stroker" who " visited London in 1666, found loopholes to prove the theological correctness of his assertion that his powers to heal came from God: "God may, to abate the pride of the Papists (that make miracles the undeniable Manifesto of the truth of their Church) make use of a Protestant to do such strange thing" This made the world think of everything more objectively and Scientifically investigate the new world in a different way.

The idea of separation of church and reason is well document throughout the era. Milton, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Mary Wollstonecraft, and Mary Shelley needed to imagine a new society to think in this foreign way. Everything they had been taught was through faith rather than reason. They were forced to break norms that began since the beginning of man. The thinkers of the time would read religious texts with the rational ideas of science and consumer culture in mind.

The enlightenment period created a consumer society. With developments in thought and the loosened power of religion over people. They bought things in excess because they could and there was no reason they couldn't. That is a thought that was developed during this time." If you can do it, why not?" Religion restricted people from things they wanted to do because it was seen as morally incorrect, or it said somewhere that they couldn't. With reason and rational thought this was a changed idea.

The enlightenment period presented many new ideas to the world. It changed the way the world operated. It changed the way all people thought. The intellectuals of the time challenged all previous notions of thought and came up with their own ideas. The used reason to prove they were right rather than god. They were rejected at first but with time, people realized how rational thought made more sense then things they were told to believe.

Britain during the Enlightenment
Britain's elite society went to coffehouses and talked about anything from religion to politics, to education. Because their beliefs shifted so dramatically, that religion started to take on many different forms, than just one. Britains were also in general becoming more literate. Many journals started to get published on various theories of science and philosophy. Groups much like the debating societies, met to discuss science and philosophy once enough people were interested. Newspapers were being distributed like crazy, and publishing books was becoming more and more popular as well.
