It’s January 2023 and while this author hasn’t set a New Year’s resolution in many, many years I was recently reflecting on a cooking course I took (pre-pandemic) at Fustini’s in downtown Petoskey. I found so much joy in learning new recipes, which I still use to this day. That memory had me wondering what other opportunities are there in our area to learn new things. I’ve compiled a list for you below. Think of something I forgot? Let me know!
