I can't believe I actually signed up for a 30 week cooking class! What was I thinking?! Okay enough whining. I signed up for the 30 week French cooking series offered by The Seasoned Farmhouse in Columbus and our first class was October 3 and should go through mid-May with a couple weeks off for holidays. I've never been the Seasoned Farmhouse but I knew about their cooking classes but believe me when they're announced they fill almost immediately so it's really hard to get in. When I saw this 30 week French cooking series I gave it a brief thought and discarded it. Signing up for a 30 week class isn't something to do on a whim and the cost was considerable for the class so I decided to watch it and if the class looked like it would fill then I'd sign up.
One class was offered on Monday nights and one on Tuesday during the day. So I watched and waited. When I saw the Monday night class fill within a few weeks I didn't think the Tuesday class would but it slowly filled. Before there was no spots left I decided that I would take the class. I do a lot with my dog but nothing just for me so I signed up. I wanted to get out of the house, meet new people with similar interests (at least cooking) and learn some cooking techniques and recipes.
At our first class, we all got chef jackets with our name the SF logo and a chef and pairing knives. We were put to work cutting onions and carrots, while Chef Tricia explained the outline of the class and a little about herself. We also made carrot soup, honey mustard chicken thighs, salad with pear vinaigrette and pumpkin cake. Not bad for our first class. Hopefully, I'll remember to take some pics in future classes. I'm still a bit intimated about signing up for a 30 week class but I think we're off to a good start and I'm looking forward to my weekly class.
