Cooking Classes With New Friends

I am the owner of Park City Culinary Institute, and I thought it would be fun to have cooking classes where we can all meet new people. I've been to almost 50 countries, visiting local markets and taking cooking classes. My ex-husband was in the Food & Beverage Industry, so when we got divorced I went to culinary school in Paris, at le Cordon Bleu. What an amazing experience that was! Being in the US, and especially in Utah, we have access to so many different cultures and cuisines. Since moving to Utah, I've met people from all around the world here - from Japan and Italy to New Zealand and Saudi Arabia - seriously, there are so many people here who all know how to make so many great foods! There's a lot to explore too. There are amazing markets in Salt Lake City for everything from International spices and herbs to exotic ingredients. Shahrazad, Qaderi Sweetz N Spicez, Chinatown, Ocean City, Black Chery, Jade, Sage, Tony Caputo's, Siegfried's, and Mahider Ethiopian to name just a few. There are more local farms and farmer's markets every day. We have a lot to explore! And have a lot we can teach each other. If you're interested in cooking - or just eating (that's okay too, some people take cooking classes just to try new things, and I'm one of them!), join me on this adventure! Depending on how much interest there is, we can meet once a month or once a week. I'll host at my cooking school. We can all take turns teaching cooking classes. Then for groceries, let's just split the cost.

Salt Lake Happiness Group

Salt Lake City, UT

Salt Lake Happiness Group

This group is about supporting HAPPINESS!

We do this in two ways: The Happiness Social and Happiness 101.

The Happiness Social is an opportunity to meet people in either being happier or making new friends - or both.    The facilitator is adept at helping newcomers to feel comfortable and welcome.  Each Happiness Social is a different experience but while you cannot be sure of the specific experience you'll have, you CAN always count on a positive experience and an opportunity to make a new friend.

Happiness 101 is an uplifting class where you will learn HOW to be happy, meet like-minded people and learn to break unhappy habits. Most people believe the myths of Happiness and therefore spend a great deal of energy chasing it, only to end up disappointed. Scientific research has now revealed the things that actually bring us Happiness. Even better: you can start being Happier NOW. Topics covered:

      *The Myths of Happiness

      *The Happiness Setpoint

      *Why You Are Not Happy

      *What Happines Is (and is not)

      *How and Why You Sabotage Your Happiness

      *Thinking Errors

      *Happiness Habits

      *The Paradox of Choice

      *The Hows of Happiness

      *Also: how exercise, sleep, social connection, money, beauty, the self-help movement, fame, the brain, American culture, religion, marriage, anti-depressants, anxiety, smiling and meditation relate to Happiness

Happiness 101 was offered elsewhere at a cost of $115. You have the opportunity to take the class at no charge.  For an opportunity to learn more about Happiness 101 and the chance to apply, click here.
