From past participants:

“The class was great!  I WILL do all of the recipes at home — I loved them all.  Jo was upbeat…all of the recipes she chose were easy but wonderful – I would take another of her classes any time, anywhere.”  -Sandy

“Jo offers a fantastic combination of education, hands on experiences, and a review after you have cooked.  This is my fourth class and I can’t wait to take more with her.”  -Chellie

“The Presto Pasta class was a relaxed approach but at the same time taught me useful techniques that require no professional expertise nor a big budget to create the meals.”  -Alicia

“I took the Thai course as well as Presto Pasta and now, several years after the former I am still using those recipes and know that the new ones will become frequently used.  Thank you so much, Jo.”

“I take home confidence and recipes that become regulars in my home with every class I take.”  -Colleen

“I have taken several of Jo’s cooking classes and have enjoyed them all.  She individualizes her instructions so that all cooking skill levels feel comfortable.”

“Your class was exactly what a cooking class should be.  You let us try on our own and have a hands-on experience.”
