You may be disappointed that this week’s Culinary Diary is so brief and contains very little new information but the fact is, so am I. Last night’s class revolved around setting up a breakfast buffet. Besides learning some facts about buffets (food costs for buffets are higher, not lower, because people gorge themselves) I learned next-to-nothing in the actual cooking department.

The class made pancakes, scrambled eggs, eggs Benedict, biscuits, bacon and sausage. It was easy and fun to eat but as for actual learning, there was not much of it. “I feel like we’re cooking for a summer camp,” one of my partners said. “Next week they’re going to have us making Lil’ Smokies and roasted marshmallows.”
