ONCE AGAIN BACK IT'S THE INCREDIBLE*
Shuna Lydon's thorough baking classes over yonder ho, on the horizon, see there? Just over the ridge, through the holler, beyond those majestic trees ~
Just in time for Spring's official entrance, two classes to take you, your kitchen and your hands out of hibernation. Let me awaken senses, enlighten you with nifty information, fatten your recipe repertoire.
{I hope to be teaching at least one class, maybe more, per month, in the coming year.}
Dates:
Sunday March 11, 2007 12:30-4 pm
**subject of your choice: caramel, egg whites or custard**
{please vote in the comments section!}
&
Sunday March 25, 2007 12:30-4 pm***
CUSTARD
Berkeley, California.
$100 per person.
There will be two spots open, at $50 per person, for those who feel the class is financially out of reach. These people will show up a little early and stay a little later, so making them my "assistants." They will help with set-up and clean-up. Please email me directly if you feel you qualify.
**The subject for the first date is up for vote. Tell me what you'd prefer out of the 3 choices: caramel, egg whites or custard.**
{due date: March 5}
How to sign up for the classes:
There is a PayPal link in Eggbeater's upper right hand column. Tell me which class specifically ( = Date & Subject) you're signing up for. You are registered when I have received payment. If you wish to send me a check, email me and I will send you the mailing address.
Exact location will be disclosed upon registration. The class takes place near BART, major East Bay bus lines and there's plenty of parking.
***Disclosure:
The March 25th class will be attended by a photographer. Take note of this as, if you attend, you will be required to sign a release form.

Oops, you're teaching a custard class on the 25th. Well then, egg whites!

Shelly & all--
I could very well teach that class twice if people so wished! Both your votes taken into consideration!

You know I'd take a class from you if I lived on that coast. You know it.
You know what else occurs to me looking at your photographs? For your next job, perhaps you could work for an upscale cooking gadget store, giving classes and at the same time demonstrating the stuff they sell. I mean, I'm crazy over those little custard pots! They're so freakin' cute! They're all round, and sweet, and they have their own little bitty lids! I want to buy them! I want to use them! I want to serve something that adorable to as many guests as I can!
I hope someone who sells cookware sees this comment and offers you a job like this. See, I used to live in an uppity suburb of L.A. where there was a very successful gourmet shop which held weekly cooking classes customers could attend for a reasonable but not stupidly low fee, with the underlying motive of pushing product as well, so the owners kind of got paid twice for every class. It's a proven model, and I think you'd do a great job and have a good time.
Or maybe you could open your own shop where you sold goodies you baked, certain especially nice ingredients, excellent cooking tools, and also conducted classes. With a little capital, you could fly.

Custard. :)

I will put my vote in for any of those two save for caramel.

Ah, the correct post!
Good luck! I know your students will adore your desserts and lessons.

Hello! I can't make this class, but I'll keep coming back to find out about other topics.

Hello-
I'm looking for a baking/chocolate dessert class to give to a friend as a bday gift...I was wondering if you're still holding classes? If not, could you recommend one in the SF area?
