So one of my favorite things to do is take a cooking class from Chef Maurice at the Laguna Beach Culinary Arts school.  He is amazing!  And I actually think I have him talked into teaching some classes at my house.  I’m crossing my fingers.  Anyway, for Christmas, I got a few classes from my mom.  She also gave a class to Megan.  And I gave her a class, and Tristen a few to take with me.  So in the end, all four of us took “All About Chicken”, and Tristen and I took “Sauces For Fish”.  Both were awesome, and I always come home with a handful of new recipes — but better yet, I come home with new skills.

Here’s Megan as she whips up some Burre Blanc.
Megan was really fun to have at these classes.
My mom liked it but said, “I have cooked my entire life.  Now it’s my turn to sit back and let someone cook for me.”
I think that someone is me.
And as long as I get these classes from you Mom….you bet I’ll cook for you!

And Bella is quite the student at these classes.
She takes serious notes, and likes to be very hands on.
Here she is eating my favorite recipe from both nights combined….Swordfish over a Spring Salad.
The name isn’t too impressive, but the food was unreal!

Chef — I can’t wait to meet up with you in my very own kitchen!
