Countdown to the start of my cooking class: 5 Days
I’ve had a lot going on lately. My business has picked up and I’ve been volunteering at the local food pantry on Saturdays. We have been out, more than normal, with friends as one of them prepares for a major surgery. And now, as I get closer to the start of my cooking class, the excitement is rising.
To get ready, I have been practicing with that super cool, (and super sharp…..Grrr), knife. No more mishaps to report and, no, I won’t show anymore gruesome photos. The first day of class is this Tuesday and I can tell the anticipation is building amongst my classmates. Because it’s online, my classmates are from all over the world which will make for an interesting learning experience!
When you sign up for the class you are invited, and encouraged, to join a private Facebook account. I have been checking out the recent posts, and they are plentiful. Past graduates, recent graduates and new students have been contributing to the conversation. It appears to be a great online forum to ask questions and get help with the project requirements.
There are students that are still finishing up the 3 month course and posting pictures of their recent creations. Omgosh, (that’s code for O.M.G.), the food they are sharing photos of are gorgeous! I can’t even imagine that I could make these dishes, much less present them so beautifully!
I’ve secured my spot in class and I am ready to get started but …….. a little nervous.
No backing out now………
