Winter 2022 Cooking Class Schedule

December 22, 2021 By msmart Leave a Comment

Here’s What We’re Cooking Up!

If you’re still looking for the perfect last-minute gift, it’s not too late to purchase a yearly Smart in the Kitchen School membership for a friend or family member. As a bonus, we’ll throw in our Smart Knife Skills online course for free (a $97 value). We can also coordinate the shipment of a HB + SITK apron as a little something extra! Or if you just need an apron to tuck under the tree, grab one for 50% off with code APRON50 through December.

Details for the cooking school membership are listed here. Our monthly membership includes access to a password-protected cooking school site with two years worth of monthly recorded classes, a monthly Zoom cooking class, a professionally recorded online lesson, countless recipes, discounts on every class I teach, and monthly product and cookbook giveaways for class attendees.
