I have an appointment Saturday afternoon to go speak with someone at the Texas Culinary Acadamy.  I'll talk to her, get a tour, and find out more about the patisserie program at TCA.  And I'm excited.  I'm nervous, and I don't know why.  I think it's because, secretly, in the back of my mind, I'd retired the idea of ever going to school.  And ( Read more... )
