Learning to Cook

I just read on someone’s blog that there are only 85 days left until Christmas! E gads, that is a short amount of time. I am just getting out my fall decorations and putting the fourth of July patriotic stuff away. I don’t even want to think about shopping for Christmas gifts! Thank goodness, we have been invited to our son and daughter in-law’s house for Thanksgiving dinner.

I never have felt comfortable fixing Thanksgiving dinner. There are so many dishes that are sentimental to me for that dinner. I always think I have to have a turkey, sweet potato casserole and pumpkin pie. They are all dishes that take a while to make. I want to buy them ahead and feel relaxed at dinner. Instead, I find myself stressed because I don’t know if I am making things the way they should be made. Understand?

I would love to take advantage of the Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel‘s Cooking School Weekend. Can you imagine how much fun and informative that weekend would be? Hilton’s chef, Chef Nathan Read, will be giving a cooking demonstration. The schooling also includes learning how to cook a lavish four-course dinner and how to match up wines to the dishes served. This type of instruction would certainly give me the confidence needed to cook a holiday dinner.

This would be a great package for hubby and I to take advantage of. For one thing, we need a getaway. For another, the school will be held October 16th and 17th, which is the most beautiful time to visit Branson. The cost of just $398.00 plus tax is certainly reasonable for such deluxe accommodations. I am going to research this a bit more! You should take a look at this great package!

    85 days is still far to far of for me to be thinking about Xmas :) That’s about a quarter of a year….
