It's Sure Been a While....
Hey Readers,
Sorry for the delay in posting, but a lot has happened this summer: been giving more private cooking classes, at-home cooking parties for children & adults and hosting a few group classes in NYC. Also, a friend passed on a job opportunity she had heard about at the Westside Campaign Against Hunger, I applied and am now a full time chef/chef instructor there! Not to mention I am currently wrapping up another fabulous teen cooking class at the Sylvia Center.
So what does this all mean in terms of A Pinch of Salt? Nothing since I finish WSCAH early in the day so I still have evenings free and weekends available so keep your request for classes coming! In fact, may be hosting a group cooking class Saturday, Oct 8th around 6pm. Theme? Latin! Will post menu and more details early next week!
I promise to continue to share with you some of the great things that been going on, and explain WSCAH in more detail. Point is the summer has been good and I have tons to be thankful for, I hope yours has been equally as fruitful!
Speak next week, Happy Cooking!

Dessert Workshop for Kids of All Ages
Today A Pinch of Salt hosted a Dessert Workshop for 60 elementary school students. We offered a spread with 3 stations: Red Velvet and Vanilla Cupcakes; Yogurt Parfaits and Carmel Apples. Each station was equipped with various toppings ranging from rice krispies to fresh strawberries!
The children had a ball and are probably coming off their sugar high as we speak. I know I'm usually teaching children the importance of eating healthy, but we all need to indulge every now and then especially when the base of the dessert is yogurt, apples and cupcakes made from scratch with real butter, eggs, vanilla and buttermilk. It was a great time and it felt very rewarding seeing children of all ages (security guards and teachers alike) enjoying themselves and satisfying their sweet tooth!
Happy Eating!
