LEARN TO COOK & ENTERTAIN AT HOME

“A really fun learning experience. The kits are designed to get you started – with all the necessary parts provided or described. The pleasure is in learning how to put it together and, by using the tips and style guides, putting your own unique stamp on the affair. No need to call mom, consult a recipe book or attend a class, simply flip the lid and learn!
