Cooking Class

For Christmas we gave mom a trip to Greenwood, MS to visit the Viking Cooking School. We decided it would be fun for all of us to be able to go so thanks to dad we were all able to take part in the fun! Unfortunately HK decided she didn't want her mommy to leave her so she got sick and had to go to the hospital. We were so sad and disappointed Courtney couldn't make it but we have already decided we HAVE to do it again! Aunt Sharon came with us so it worked out just fine! So we made our way to Greenwood on Saturday and our first stop was the Delta Bistro. It was soo yummy. It so funny bc seriously there is nothing in Greenwood but they have this great bistro with a James Beard nominee chef! The bread pudding we had for desert was absolutely divine! Then we just wandered around checking everything out. There is not much to see and if Viking were not there I am not sure what would happen to this town. The Alluvian Hotel is owned by Viking as well and it is beautiful. Unfortunately they only have 50 rooms and it was booked so we did not get to stay. Apparently since the movie The Help was filmed in Greenwood it has not slowed down any. So we started our cooking class at 5 pm. Our menu was Southern Foods from the movie The Help. We were so excited! The class was fantastic! We cooked greens, mac n cheese, fried chicken, biscuits and corn bread. They already had cooked deviled eggs, caramel cake and Minnies chocolate pie but we got the recipes. After we cooked everything we sat down to eat all this yummy food! It was so much fun and I am looking forward to trying my recipes again!!
