The New Year

The New Year has gotten off to a great start. We've made some wonderful banana bread muffins, yummy beef stroganoff and the always delicious soda bread buns. Next week we will be making pizza to start off the next 8 weeks of cooking classes.

If you are interested in signing up, please send me an email (eileenoco@gmail.com) or call me (905-729-4898). I have 2 spots available on the Tuesday evening classes which start at 6 p.m. and go until 7:30 p.m.

This term we will be making pizza, a chicken brocolli braid, apple crisp, shepherd's pie (a family favourite), butter tarts, oatmeal cookies (with chocolate chips, raisins or plain!), a simple chicken divan and scalloped potatoes. As always, we will be having a lot of fun and making some wonderful food that the entire family can enjoy.

Keep checking back to hear about the classes and see what's coming up in Farmhouse Kitchen! Spring will soon be here and I'm already starting to plan for special strawberry jam making classes - they were popular with everyone last year and I'm looking forward to another successful jam season!

Gearing up for Christmas

Two more classes until Christmas vacation....tonight and next Tuesday. If the weather co-operates and we are able to have class tonight we will be making a recipe from Nigella Lawson...Holiday Hot Cake with Egg Nog Cream. I made it the other week and it is delicious! Can't wait to teach it - if not tonight then next week.

I currently have a class running on Tuesday evenings at 6 p.m. There is some room available in this class. Please contact me if you are interested in joining the Tuesday night class. I also offer classes on Monday's and Wednesday's at 5:30 p.m. Again - please contact me if you would like to join.

I'm looking forward to the Christmas break and the New Year. Best wishes to everyone for Christmas and the New Year!

Spaghetti Sauce

Tonight we venture into a new area. We are making spaghetti sauce. I use the recipe that my aunt used to make for us when I was growing up. It's hard to eat sauce out of a jar after you've had homemade. Looking forward to passing this recipe on.

Next week we'll be making carrot cake muffins with cream cheese icing. Other recipes we'll be covering over the next weeks are: Potato and Bacon soup, blueberry cake, chicken fingers, home made quick and easy Stroganoff, and soda bread buns.

I'm hoping to be able to fit in some special classes for Christmas cookies and Christmas baking. I've already completed a class for Christmas fruit cake and it was a success.

Email me if you have any questions or are interested in joining Farmhouse Kitchen.
