An Italian Birthday Celebration!

On November 18th, I had the honor to celebrate a birthday with a hungry family! The menu for the night was "Cozy Italian," one of my favorites. From appetizer to dessert, these students were fully involved- even when we burnt an oven mitt and couldn't work the blender! Thanks for another wonderful class, and happy birthday!

We may have had to take cover for the blender to work... but we figured it out in the end!
