Class Update

  In February 1991, I began teaching Western cooking in my home kitchen atelier here in Sammamish. It is hard to believe that 35 years have already passed since then.

   Later this year, my husband and I have decided to close this chapter of our life in the United States and relocate our home base to Japan.   Before this transition, I would like to host a special cooking class to share a new seasonal menu with you.  Please join us for a spring-inspired menu celebrating the beauty of the cherry blossom season.  To register, please sign up one week prior to the class.
