Presentation IS Everything!!

Jacque is in school pursuing her minor right now, which is Health and Wellness. (She is just waiting to see if she is accepted into the Nursing school at ASU, but needed so many credits to keep her scholarship) Thursday and Friday, she went to a seminar for her classes. Her last class was on Food and Stress, taught by a professional chef. She was excited to share the yummy recipes that she tried. Now, most of you know that cooking isn't one of Jacque's all time passions. She would rather...not! BUT, lately, she has been putting on the apron a little bit more and Friday night we were treated to a very delicious dinner.

She started out with a mixture of avocado and mandarin orange juice. Quite a combination, but she kept going. Blanching tomatoes, searing salmon and roasting red potatoes....it was smelling divine in no time. But sometime, ask her the difference between an organic avocado and a regular one!!
Then it was time to put it all together. Grampy, you would be SO proud. Presentation became everything as she would not let us taste or just scoop it up. Everything looked great. And it tasted even better...no actually, it was wonderful! We learned a few things, we ate well and had a great time. Boy, I love those college classes!!
