I've found the PERFECT GAL activity for me! Cooking classes!!
I'm signing up for a class in Latin cooking. It is a 3 part class (once a week for three weeks) As follows:
MENU -
Week 1- Caribbean: Jerk Spiced Shrimp with Papaya Relish; Mufungo with Pork Carnitas; Arroz Con Pollo (Cuban Chicken and Rice); Banana-Coconut Tart. Week 2- North America: Papusas (Salvadoran Corn Cakes) with Curtido Slaw; Chicken Chilaquiles (Mexican Tortilla Casserole); Beef Carneadas (Grilled) with Rice and Beans; Tres Leches Cake. Week 3- South America: Peruvian Shrimp and Scallop Ceviche with Fried Plantains; Columbian Chicken Tamales with Pique Sauce; Skirt Steak Churascos with Salsa Criolla; Dulce De Leche Flan.
Everything sounds so delicious! I can't wait! It starts next Tuesday and runs every Tuesday evening for three weeks.
Also still looking for pottery classes but the only ones I can find in my area are actually done by a retail store that lets you paint pots etc.. and then you pay for the pots and the paint. Not exactly what I had in mind so I'll keep looking.
Also contacted the Habitat for Humanity but waiting for an answer.
Anyone ever done Big Brother Big Sister? It looks interesting but seems a little intimidating to me. Kind of outside my comfort zone but I think that is probably a good thing for me right now. I just feel intimidated by being a "role model" for a little kid, although I think it would be very rewarding to give back to the community, especially to a little boy with no father. Still playing with that thought in my head.
