what class do you wish you could go to?

Caroline......I totally agree with everything Chelsea/Judy/MJ mentioned.
Don't give up.....these tweaks will make a dramatic difference 

As for a course....I have always wanted to do a cake decorating course.  I admire the artistic flare that decorators have, and I would just love to imitate them.
I have bought the wilton decorators kit, which had 3 of their courses in a book.  Whilst it is informative.....nothing beats seeing it done first hand.

I would attend a cooking class,  (not too basic) on anything ,  that is TMX or any of the above suggestions.  I find that I usually learn something.  Went to a cooking class at the Nut Festival in NE Vic at the weekend,  given by Anthony Simone,  and although the end result of the dish he cooked was not successful,  I did learn some incidental points on making pasta and also on white chocolate and coconut sauce.

I told Anthony that he needed to get a TMX when he was involved in a special lunch last year.  He did a wonderful lemon sabayon sauce.

Did you get to Provenance? - I sent a Twitter message to Michael Ryan with a link to your recipe.  He said to tell you to take your TMX so he could play.

Any advanced classes with Asian, Middle Eastern, Italian, French, Polish, Japanese, English, Scandinavian, .... OK ANY new advanced classes.

There is one in Sydney on Thursday next with a chef who worked for Tetsuya.  Sounds very interesting.

Talking about Cooking Classes, Thermomixer you're probably already in the know, but Pizzini's in the King Valley are apparently setting up a cooking class there 

[Thermomixer]

Yes, in the know - Katrina ? said last year that she was hoping to do it.   Guess it is a logical extension after the book and upgrade of the restaurant.

Afriend rang up there to see if the restaurant was open for Mothers Day but she was told it was going to be a cooking school

Thermomixer,  didn't get to Provenance this time.  Anthony was a natural with the cooking class,  but the Dessert he cooked was too complicated for the time he had and the equipment in the tent.  He cooked "Chocolate pasta filled with marsala poached chestnuts, quince, caramelized nuts, white chocolate and coconut sauce".  Think the lady on the 'sauce' stall is interested in a TMX..  DH carries a photo of mine on his phone and he showed it to her.  She was very interested and said she could claim it on her tax. He also told her to contact ILB .

LOL. Maybe she'd be a good recruit for that part of the NE

I would go to any advanced class. somewhere I could learn some really spectacular things.

I'd like to attend a macaron/macaroon class as these are my latest thing. I am slowly getting better with them.

[Thermomixer]

You don't need advanced classes if you are doing macarons !!  Smarty pants.
