Hannah is now settled in college! Our last chick out of the nest








Hannah is so excited for classes to start on Tuesday September 7, 2010! She is now a culinary student at Johnson and Wales University in Providence Rhode Island. Hannah has wanted to be a chef since she was in the 6th grade, and she is so excited she got in to the prestigious culinary Program that Johnson and Wales offers! Emeril Lagasse went to JWU! We drove her up on friday and she got settled in her dorm. There are 4 kids per room and she got to meet 2 of them ...Tamika and Nakeshia...Simone will arrive today from Southern California. Both the other girls are from New York. The Culinary campus is gorgeous and the main campus is further north next to Brown University. Providence is really pretty and there is so much to do! She will be majoring in Culinary Arts and Hospitality. She will be taking all kinds of cooking classes...baking, pastry, and learning everything there is to know about being a chef...we got to see the lab classrooms and they are amazing! One of them reminds me of Julia Childs kitchen... Cant believe both girls are settled in college and we have an empty nest! Where did the time go? Seems like just yesterday They were headed to Kindergarten!
