My First You Tube Demo

   If you haven't already seen it, here is my first attempt at a cooking demo. I recorded it myself using my laptop. Got to love apple! It wasn't rehearsed, and since I have recieved a lot of great feedback on how to improve for the next time.

The End Is Near

Our Last few Therapeutic Classes

   It is so hard to believe that I am in the home stretch, the last few weeks of Bauman's Natural Chef program. Soon I will be a certified natural chef! I can't say its been an easy ride, or that I wish that it wouldn't end. I can say that I have learnt so much, and worked harder than I ever have before. Still have a few big hurdles to climb - the final project on childhood obesity, a business plan and the class showcase dinner. 
   The last few weeks were jammed with such important and fascinating information. We learnt how to prepare food for specific needs - heart health, diabetes, weight management and cancer. These are the tools that will propel me into becoming the thoughtful, caring, and well educated chef I want to be.

   Some of the better recipes were a Red Beet Rice, Raw Butternut Squash Salad, and my favorite was a Sweet Potato and Sauteed Kale.
