Friday night my friend Lindsay and I went to a cooking class at Central Market in Houston. Last summer I helped Lindsay decorate her house. As a thank you Lindsay purchased me a Chinese Cookbook by Dorothy Huang and Chinese cooking class taught by Dorothy. Soooo sweet. She really didn't have to do anything for me. I loved helping her. Decorating doesn't feel like work to me.
The cooking class was SO much fun. Seriously, it was the most fun I've had in a long time. Central Market has locations in the DFW area, Houston, Austin, and San Antonio. If you have a Central Market in your area, you should definitely take a cooking class. I promise you'll love it!
If you're interested in Chinese Cooking, this is a great cookbook!
The Menu for the Evening~
Fried Wontons
Kung Pao Chicken
Stir Fried Vegetables
Beef Fried Rice
Almond Cookies
Lindsay and I got to help Dorothy make the Fried Wontons. I'm so glad we were picked to make the Wontons. They were the most complicated thing we made in the class and I'm glad I we got hands on practice. They're really delicious!
Okay~ Friday I was having such an off day. I looked SO bad....my make-up didn't go on right. My hair was a mess and I looked pregnant in this baggy shirt. I really don't think I'm going to wear this shirt again. I'm DONE with it!
Isn't Dorothy cute? I just want to take her home.

Love HEB, Love Central Market! I remember when they first opened in Houston and the ads on the radio seemed to be speaking to me, to come work for them. I was more of a foodie then (BK.) We finally got a huge HEB in Silverlake and I could not be happier...my son even begs me to take him there.
First of all, you look adorable-nothing wrong with you in that picture.
It sounds like you had a great time at the cooking class. The menu sounds delicious and that wonton looks good. I'm glad you had a good time. Maybe my mom, sister and I will do something like that. I think it would be a great idea to do for Mother's Day, since all of us are mothers. What a great idea, thanks for sharing.

Dorothy is cute but you look great too! There is nothing wrong with your outfit, shirt or make-up. I think you look fabulous, as always!
