I’m sorry for the long layover between previous posts.  I’ve been extremely busy with different obligations and transitions at the moment which I will write about in another post, but until then….. Here’s Dinner for 10 – Simply Fancy French!

This was our general August group cooking class.  As you can read from the title of this post, it was featuring French cooking and techniques.  Julie went to French specialized culinary school and is trained in French technique which apparently is a fundamental technique in the culinary world.  I never knew that until the class.  One of the things I enjoy the most about these classes is that I’m a student without really being a student.   I don’t really pay attention to exactly what’s going on but I do pick up techniques and facts here and there about the culinary world.  But the best part is, of course, the delicious food and the interaction with our new group of friends!

I get the fun job of documenting the event and receive satisfaction in seeing people enjoy themselves as they learn to cook and receive the reward of the awesome food they just help prepare!  The experience of this class is not over until you enjoy the community of the old and new friends as you eat!

we had a full house! and then some =)

he was the studious one, as you can tell.

She wanted a sneak peak of the action in the pot.  We need to invest in a overhead camera! uhhh… any investors out there?? =)
