Last week Edward told me that we were having a date on Sunday. No details were given except to be ready by 9:30 AM. Trying to get hints out of him all week was unsuccessful. As it turned out, Edward signed us up for a cooking class at Williams-Sonoma. (What a guy for planning this all on his own.) It was called "Make-Ahead Feast." We learned how to make several favorite Thanksgiving side dishes that could be made in advance and require minimal work on Thanksgiving Day. It featured delicious recipes for scalloped potatoes, green bean casserole, sweet potatoes and stuffing. The best part about it was being able to taste everything...mmmm. The chef had fairly simple recipes to follow (always a plus) and some of the products/ingredients used were available for purchase at the store. We are now ready to cook for Thanksgiving!

They offer FREE classes every Sunday at 10 AM. You have call ahead to sign up.
