I'm So Proud of AND Excited For Madmax!!!

  Re: (...)
Tracie will probably shoot me to posting all this, but ya'all know almost all my secrets already, so what the heck.

She (Tracie/madmax) called me this weekend to announce she had upped the bar of her cooking adventures. She had some cauliflower and didn't know what she wanted to do with it - so, she got out her copy of Culinary Artistry, looked up what goes with cauliflower and proceeded to develop her own dish with the suggestions. AND SHE LOVED IT. I think that is so great and it's exactly what loving cooking is all about -

AND, she is also going to take some culinary classes at a school in her town. They offer classes on Saturdays, a different course each week. Below is the site for it and they are affiliated with my alma mater (so to speak) ACF.

I hope she doesn't mind too much my bragging on her but I think this is so great! Pretty soon when I go to her house, I'll be sitting watching her do all the cooking...well, most of it, I'll have to help chop or something!

Right on Tracie Lee!
Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.

Thanks for sharing that. I LOVE these kinds of stories. It does my heart good to hear of someone else branching out and beginning their journey with food and finding out how much fun it can be. Remind her to take pictures so she can chart her own progress

WTG Tracie!!!

YAY Tracie...it's in her genes obviously and it sounds like she is going to happily take advantage of her background, watching and cooking with you.

This is so nice for both of you!

This is exciting news, thanks for telling us about this! My daughters aren't quite there yet, but I guess there is still time. I really need to order that book.
Happy Cooking Tracie!

OHHH---What a great new world you are about to enter, Tracie --- and what better advantage could you have than a Mom that can answer ALL of your questions and give expert advice. GO GIRL!!! Please, keep us "posted"---we could probably learn a few little gems along the way, too.

Jean, I want you to know that I finally ordered Culinary Artistry, as I have been wanting it since you first mentioned it a few months back. 3 to 5 days, I can't wait!
