Day 4: Taste of Summer Cooking Technique Class

Today's "30 Days to 30" adventure was a cooking technique class offered at Williams-Sonoma. The store offers technique classes every Sunday morning for free. To my delight, this week's class theme was the Taste of Summer - focused on new ways to make summer vegetables. I ended up having to bring Hunter along with me to the class and with him tucked away in his stroller with a portable DVD player (yes, watching Curious George, AGAIN!) I was able to catch most of the class.

I can't decide if I should be disappointed or feel complimented because I really didn't learn anything new from the class. We learned how to make guacamole and how to sautee veggies in a skillet. Both of these are regular menu items at our house but seeing the interest of the others attending the class, I'm guessing they were "fresh ideas" to many others. I did learn about a bunch of overpriced cooking gadgets that if I had the biggest kitchen on earth, I'd probably want to buy :)
