My specialty is baking, pastry, bread, desserts, etc. I love teaching and miss it, so the blog is my outlet for now. And if you want to chat more about the pros/cons of pastry school let me know. It's a big decision, take your time. I changed careers after I raised my kids!

Most of us don't know what we really want to do, which is why I can count on one hand the number of people I know who actually work in the field their degree is in. And I think they're all accountants.<br /><br />If I make it back to pastry school I'll definitely be posting on it as much as possible, and I'll do recap posts of the non-program classes I attend. Except for last weekend's class at Sur la Table, since I forgot all about it and missed it. Total bummer.tierneymariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12354039603051550855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6796492960384114782.post-5536745822660018532012-02-08T12:56:40.314-06:002012-02-08T12:56:40.314-06:00I completely understand you...

I have the same problem right now, I'm finishing my Business degree and all I want to do is go to a pastry school, but they're way too expensive (and I don't have the money) or way too long (and I don't have two years to be fully dedicated).... I hope you do get into the school you're talking about, maybe you could just post about what you're learning and I'll just try to imitate it!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11947577872116585353noreply@blogger.com
