After a wonderful semester full of learning and cooking and cooking and learning and... (you get the point!), alas we must say later gators. To my seniors, happy graduation! To my freshmen, sophomores,and juniors- happy scheduling and I'll see you soon! :)
As my Advanced Foods students finished their semester of baking and global cuisine, we concluded our time together with a world hunger unit. In appreciation of all we have, we donated the 200 cupcakes prepared for their culinary final to the N.E.W. Shelter in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
As being smart consumers, students planned recipes based on items on sale at our local grocery store, Super Ron's. A wide variety of dishes and desserts made for an eclectic cook-off!
Thanks to all who voted for this year's ProStart Gingerbread Creation competition. The winner is Entry #3: MONSTER'S UNIVERSITY by Samantha Manci, Sydney Manci, and Danielle Robaidek. So proud of all of my students!! Well done, everyone! :)
