Ciao! This month we have been learning how to cook some foods from the country of Italy. Each Wednesday afternoon we go to our Culinary Arts class with Chef Kathy Olsen. Culinary Arts is another name for Cooking. We have our own chef jackets and hats to keep our clothes and the food clean. We froze some of the Italian food and then served it all to our parents and teachers in a 4-course Italian meal!

Yum - a delicious homemade Italian dinner. I'm sure you and your guests really enjoyed it. And now you probably have a new appreciation for all the work that goes into feeding a family too. What are you going to make next time? Take care and keep working hard. :>)
ReplyDeleteDear Ms. Miller,
DeleteThank you for following our blog from NY! We love Susan Branch too, she lives 8 miles by water from us, and Gwen loves painting with watercolors like she does! We think Cuttyhunk is a great place to be a kid! Next week we are finishing making and serving a Thanksgiving feast to 11 people!
Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Carter, Gwen and Ms. Dunn

Mmmmmm...that looks delicious. And now you're making a Thanksgiving feast?! That makes me remember. I used to do that with my class...turkey and all the trimmings. Yummy. I'll be cooking for two of my daughters, my sister and her partner, my mom and step dad and 7 kids. We will have a BIG turkey. And mountains of mashed potatoes. Happy Thanksgiving guys! Gail
DeleteThat looks delicious! Maybe you'll cook for me when I come in the spring? have a great Thanksgiving you guys! Gail
DeleteNice job Gwen and Carter! You all could definitely give the chefs on Federal Hill in Providence a run for their money. I hope I can sample some of your new recipes when I am next on the island. Good luck with the Thanksgiving feast and best wishes for a wonderful holiday. We wish we were on Cuttyhunk with you all. Cheers, Alden.
