"Not only did I learn specific recipes, but I learned general cooking techniques, such as how to cut properly. Not only was Kendra teaching us how to prepare a (mouth-watering) pesto frittata, she was helping us gain confidence to cook on our own."
"I find myself able to use the cooking techniques in other dishes I make, helping me become more adventurous in my cooking."
"I am so impressed that for someone who has been married for 19 years I could find something else to share with my husband. We have many things that we share together, but cooking wasn't one of them. Since my husband has been taking cooking classes, we have connected together in the kitchen. I have enjoyed our time together and I have loved sharing something that I enjoy (cooking) with him. It has truly made me fall in love all over again."
"Kendra's excitement and confidence in the kitchen is contagious! I have always enjoyed cooking, but after taking two classes with Kendra, my enjoyment of cooking has been taken to the next level. Even though I have three small children at home, I feel as though my dreams of cooking 'fancy food' are comfortably within reach. Cooking with Kendra has reminded me to relax, have fun, and enjoy my kitchen."
"For me, taking a cooking class is like making a deposit in my family bank account. They have to eat and I have to cook, so why not improve my skills and have fun in the process? One of my favorite things about the classes I've taken so far has been cooking with other women who, like me, may have developed bad habits in the kitchen. Kendra handles herself with ease and graciously offers answers to every question, no matter how insignificant it may seem."
"I learned the basics...like how to properly cut on onion, how to make chicken dinners without any Cream of Somthin' soup, and the right knives to buy."
"It was a great night and we appreciate your 'mentoring' along the way. We will be signing up for additional classes in the future. We all had a blast."
"Kendra took the time to explain 'simple' concepts like how to use a knife (for slicing, chopping, cutting, etc.), types of things to look for in purchasing kitchenware and cutlery, and when to switch utensils (i.e., time to wash)."
"Thank you for your 'mahvelous' instruction and helping a bunch of guys to enjoy cooking and giving our families a treat."
"I used to approach mealtime by trying to think of what I could put on the table. I was planning what I would end up with. You have taught me that if I start with fresh, tasty ingredients I will end up with delicious food. Now I envision what ingredients I will start with instead of how it will end up. It has made me look forward to cooking and shopping again because we don't always have to eat the same recipes and my experiments end up tasting delicious."
