What we learned in class has taught me to use all the same herbs that have been in my pantry all along in a way that is more artful\, intentional and potent. ” \n“I honestly wasn’t sure this class would be interesting to me\, because I do cook with a lot of spices and sometimes grow weary of the generalized “this is how to cook your foods correctly” diatribe some instructors give. But you are a great teacher! This class was perfect; it was much more about delving into the stories of the spices and herbs\, and learning about them in a broader context of health\, healing\, cooking\, nourishment\, and tradition. I was super excited for class each week and never looked at the clock. You have an awesome ability to share a huge amount of info in a way that is easy and fun for me to remember and learn. My relationship with these herbs and spices grew so much that it doesn’t feel like a chore to cook more with them\, but a delight! I love remembering some little parts of their story as I cook. They are so friendly to me now!”
