Thanks to everyone who has been able to take a class. It's been an incredible year including doing live cooking segments on TALK Pittsburgh! And I have been asked if I still doing cookie class for the holidays and I do. After school time slots are still available. And my cookbook can be a great gift idea for your cooks and bakers on your list.
