Bob and I have
been careening towards this day for several
years now. It starts with one of us having a
brilliant idea about some
change we want to make to our home. It always
seems so easy but.......
inevitably, the other guy has a little different
idea or is just not ready
for the change. That's when it all begins. A little
suggestion perhaps.
Test the waters....but don't rock the boat! There
are so many choices,
the furniture, the surfaces (oh God, the surfaces)
the colors, all those
CHOICES! Maybe this,
or.....maybe........if we just do that.
On it goes, sometimes (this time) for years! All the while, we have
been compiling great ideas. We both are pretty
strong willed but
after almost 32 years of marriage, we also are good
at compromise.
While our plans grow and simmer in their juices
over time, the
"flavors" build too like a wonderful recipe. This is the period
where we always add and subtract ingredients until
we have the perfect
"dish" for us. Neither will have gotten everything
we wanted but in the end,
it seems the product is always much better than we
had imagined.
The major goal for our new
kitchen is to create much more room.
We will remove a wall and build a new island/bar. A
much better
environment for conducting classes. We will have a
far better and more comfortable space for our
demonstration classes. You, our students will
have more room for preparing your dishes in class.
We are very excited
and we can't wait for you to see it! June 22 will
be our Grand re-Opening
Open House, but more about that later.
On June 16, the day we re-open, our
Summer Fun Camps begin!
In fact, every night that week is full of great
classes including our
BBQ Ribs Workshop on Saturday. This
workshop is one of our very
favorites because it's fun and the end result is
soooooo tasty!
On July 3, there will be a new
Basics of Cooking Course beginning
and July 1st, I am continuing the first session
with my new (by request)
Intermediate Basics of Cooking Course. If
you really like to cook
or just would like to indulge yourself with all
things food, these are the classes for you. I have
never had so much fun teaching and my students
have been those who literally jump up and down with
the sheer glee of cooking absolutely great meals! I
so hope you are able to attend,
I am sure you will love it.
