From recent class participants:
I always learn something life-changing (for the better!) in your cooking classes. The recipes are delicious, of course, but what makes them so special for me are the extra insights I gain about your choice of ingredients and the preparation techniques you use. I don’t even like to think about my kitchen “B.C.” — Before Cindy! My husband and I are healthier and can enjoy food without guilt thanks to what I’ve learned in your cooking classes. Thank you so much! Mara S.
Cindy, We enjoyed your class so much and everything was so yummy. My daughter also loved your daughter, she was a great peer/mentor/example!
My daughter had asked me to find her a cooking class but it was understandably hard to find a celiac-safe child-friendly class. I’m so glad we found you and 100 Bowls. Thank you for welcoming her and including her in your cooking. Finally, a place where she did not feel singled out as difficult and I didn’t have to worry if she was safe to eat at every bite. She loved it all so much. As a momma, you know the struggle is real to guard our kids against all the popular and “cool” processed foods so easily available to our kids. It was great to show my daughter an example of like-minded people trying to stay healthy by respecting and nourishing our bodies. Thank you also for creating a warm, friendly, positive, healthy, community-building class.
From my Soups Class:
I made the Butternut squash soup last night, and it is likely one the best soups I have ever tasted. Even my wife agreed. It was really fantastic..........Chris L.
