Although I usually take the summer off from teaching, this summer turned out differently. First, there were the two Russian Dumplings classes at The Pantry in July that I'd posted about earlier: fun, dynamic, and filled with chatty, eager students, as Pantry classes typically are. There were stories and laughter, flour flew everywhere, we had up to 6 pots and pans going on the stove at any given time, and people left with satisfied stomachs and updated Instagram accounts :) T
