So much to be thankful for!
Looking back on 2022 and what Cooking in Bloom has accomplished, it is humbling to see! I am so very thankful for the opportunity to touch children’s lives in a dynamic and lasting way. I am grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with the schools in Little Rock, both private and public. I am thankful for my community space and the children that take my classes there. I am grateful for the opportunity to be involved with the Arkansas Farm to School program. I am always and forever thankful to the staff and hosts on The Vine for putting up with my crazy cooking! I am grateful for our experience at the Central Arkansas Library System and the children we taught there! I am thankful for our new friends and location in Searcy, Arkansas! I am grateful for my Chef friends who have taken the culinary program with Cooking in Bloom to new levels. I am thankful to be involved with the Arkansas Autism Foundation and its Sensory Santa event. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve during a Salvation Army community event.
Lastly, I am thankful for my family! They have had to wait a little longer at school for me to pick them up, rearrange schedules to accommodate my business, and help me with household stuff more!
I have a lot to be thankful for!
