HEIDELBERG HIGH SCHOOL ALL CLASS REUNION

 Mike Cannon puts on these Heidelberg High School reunions.  He was a 78 grad and I was a 76 grad.  There were people here from 1966 to 1990.  It was a fun week with them and I made new friends.
 We had a meet and greet get together at the Waikiki Beach Marriott pool.
 Christina opened up her house to us in Mililani for a German feast.  I made these pretzels to go with the Bratwurst and German salad.

One of classmates plays music at Chuck's Cellar in Waikiki so we met there to hear him play.

EASTER EGG COOKIES

For the Hawaii Foodbank, I made Easter egg shaped cookies for a bake sale.  I had so much fun decorating the cookies and ended up selling 52 cookies.  I also made carrot shaped orange cupcakes, coconut nest cookies, chocolate chip M&M cookies and coconut haupia cupcakes.

BAGEL MAKING CLASS

 I took class in Bagel making from the Black Seed Bagel Company in New York.  I never had freshly baked bagels and I will never buy store bought again.  They were soft and delicious and actually easy to make.  I have made several batches since the class for my staff and friends.  My favorite is with lox and cream cheese.  I will try cinnamon raisin next since I got cinnamon from Viet Nam.  Do you like my Chef Fuji apron?  It was a birthday gift from Darlene and I wear it all the time.
