We are now officially at the halfway mark of my 10 week cooking program and I must say that having 12 amazing people come by the kitchen once a week to learn, create, cook and dine together is surely the second best part of my job (you know retreats will always take first!). If you have used any of my recipes, you know that they are not always as descriptive as perhaps they should be. I sure learned this lesson in editing my cookbook. Personally, I think that's what makes them extra super amazingly special. Maybe it's that I am a Montessori kid and was a given a little freedom in how my edutainment learning was gonna go. All I know is that I have one rule in my kitchen when it comes to cooking. Read the recipe, understand the recipe, then own the recipe.
