👩‍🍳 Sweet End to a Great Season! 🥚
​What an incredible final Life Skills Cooking Class for the season! We went out with a bang (and a sugar rush! 😉).
​Our awesome students mastered two classic, cozy treats: Fudgy Brownies and delicious Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies. The kitchen smelled absolutely heavenly!
​We had a true farm-to-table moment thanks to one of our fantastic students! A huge thank you to Travis for bringing us a dozen beautiful, fresh eggs from his own backyard chickens! 🐓 Baking with ingredients that fresh truly elevated our final creations.
​We are so proud of how much everyone has learned and created this season. Stay tuned for details on when our cooking classes will return! Happy baking until then!

The room smelled amazing, the food was delicious, and everyone showed off their awesome cooking skills! 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳
