I am installing a kitchen light fixture in the ceiling. While pulling down the old fixture the green ground wire broke. The new Fixture has a green ground wire. Where do I ground it to now?
The fixture box should have a ground screw on the bottom of the box. Sometimes you have to move other wires out of the way to see it. Just reconnect the fixture ground wire to this screw.

How can I convert a cord to a plug?
You can't but you can install a plug on the end of a cord. Just go purchase one and install it. Very simple to do. Black wire goes to copper screw, white wire goes to silver screw, and ground or green wire goes to ground screw. It both wires are brown then connect the wire with the ridges on the outside of the wire to the silver screw as it is the neutral. The wire that is smooth is the black hot wire which connects to the copper screw.

If there are three attachment points then you have a ground and two hots. The ground goes to the green screw and the hot wires can be connected to either hot screw.
