I honestly feel like I have cause for celebration. I have
finally received all of my course material from Penn Foster Career School. I
realize that I’m not ready to go through the material yet, but I’m happy just
the same. In fact, I have been enjoying my studies so much that I suggested to
my oldest son, Tyler that he should try it and to my surprise, he agreed.
My husband and I have been hoping that Tyler would pursue
some sort of education past his high school one, but he just didn’t want to
hear it…until this past weekend. I told Ty that I really loved catering and I
think he might enjoy the cooking aspect of the course. I know my son loves to
cook, but he’s been afraid of taking the plunge into a full time culinary
career, mostly because it would require him to go to culinary school. I guess
that’s why I thought this catering course would be perfect for him. It’s not
like a traditional school. He could do it on his own time, and he’d get to
cook. These things, (plus the fact that my husband is willing to pay for the
course) lured my oldest boy in and the next time he graces us with his presence,
we’ll be signing him up for the Penn Foster course.
Ultimately I’m hoping that Tyler will join me in the kitchen
and that we can start doing some catering together. He’d be easy to work with
as the boy is a fierce employee and an incredibly hard worker. The only problem
I can foresee is that he just might eat up all of the food before we serve it. What can I say, he loves his mother’s cooking.
