This past January, I was frustrated with my finance job and felt a strong need to do something different that I love. While I’ve always loved to cook and bake, I was constantly adjusting my lifestyle to make it healthier. In the new year, I attended an open house at the Natural Gourmet Institute and was immediately drawn to the school. The curriculum, which consists of both health classes as well as health-supportive cooking was perfect for me. Two weeks later, I was in class with a great group of girls, all working in different fields. I had intended on starting a blog to document the journey through our year in culinary school, but found myself way too swamped with the part-time program in addition to my full-time job. Here I am, freshly graduated from the program and ready to share helpful and healthful posts 🙂
