Greetings!
 
Temps in the low 70's, no rain, daffodils blooming on February 1st - is it really Winter in California?
 
Get over the seasonal confusion and get into the kitchen! There is no better way to deal with the Winter doldrums than to join the fun of a Nutmeg Kitchens cooking class! Whether you want to hone your entertaining skills, brush up on basic techniques or learn how to surprise those hard to please family members (ie, KIDS), Nutmeg Kitchens classes provide you with comprehensive recipes, lots of kitchen tips and fun, informative cooking time.
 
More and more families are re-discovering the joys of dining at home, and for a variety of reasons: the expense of eating out; the poor - no, make that abysmal- nutritional value of fast food and carry out; the wonderful aromas of home cooked food; the time spent together at the table, savoring conversation and getting to know your teenagers again...Ok, maybe I'm pushing it a bit with that last reason, but there is the satisfaction of knowing YOU prepared your family meal. You can always use the old "I slaved over a hot stove all day just for you!" guilt trip, too! It works for me all the time!
 
A Nutmeg Kitchens cooking class does not guarantee family harmony, but you'll enjoy time with others who want to expand their culinary horizons and have some time away from the kids!

Join one of the scheduled classes noted above or gather your own group of friends for a custom-designed class, held in your kitchen or mine. Custom designed classes allow more flexibility with time and ingredients; prices are based according to menu selections, which we can plan together. A cooking class is a great way to entertain or celebrate a special occasion, too! Private, individual classes are also available.
 
For scheduled classes: the cost is $60 per individual class. Class sizes range from four to eight, depending on the topic and "hands on" projects. Each individual class will last approximately two and one half hours. A minimum of four students is required for a class to take place. Scheduled classes take place in my home kitchen, 145 Portola Road, Portola Valley. Class size is limited - register early to ensure a space! Please email me with your registration request, noting the class you would like to attend.
 
NOTE: YOU ARE NOT REGISTERED FOR CLASS UNTIL YOUR FEE IS PAID.
