I am having a difficult time finding my error can some one help ?
# Example:
# values = [{"name": "Michelangelo", "food": "PIZZA"}, {"name": "Garfield", "food": "lasagna"}]
# string_factory(values)
# ["Hi, I'm Michelangelo and I love to eat PIZZA!", "Hi, I'm Garfield and I love to eat lasagna!"]
template = "Hi, I'm {name} and I love to eat {food}!"
def string_factory(**kwargs):
return kwargs
string_factory(name="Kenneth", food="tacos")

Treehouse Moderator 68,441 PointsThe challenge asks to create a function that takes a list of dictionaries as an argument. Loop through this list, applying each to a formatting of the template string. Return a new list of the formatted strings. There isn't a need to use **kwargs as a parameter.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!
