 May your holidays be peaceful and may your new year be filled with laughter and light.
It's been another year! Sigh! Hang in there! We are not even cooking this year, we are ordering Chinese food and calling it Christmas (can you see our tree isn't even fully decorated). Be safe and remember that we are all in this together. Hug your kids from me, I am holding mine as close as they will let me. With love, Chef Pascal

 "Pascal is a great teacher! She speaks to each and every child in her class. She helps them with the process like she was in the same room with them. She is patient, kind and personable. She helps the children build skills and self confidence. My grandson had his first class with Pascal and came away with a new sense of pride and self confidence. He also learned a new appreciation of food prep and all the effort one puts into it. I was so impressed with him keeping on task. Thank you!" - Mary Anne N.
