My homemade smoked salmon quiche at the Proper Pies & Tarts baking workshop at the newly launched Brettschneider's Baking & Cooking School by Dean Brettschneider of the famed Baker & Cook.

As the saying goes, "give a man a fish and you feed him for day; teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime."

I left the six-hour baking workshop with valuable tips and new-found skills on baking quiche, pies and tarts, and of course new friends! It was such a fun learning experience we wouldn't hesitate to head back! Next class: Jun 25. Visit bakingandcookingschool.com for full schedule of classes.
