Amateur in the Kitchen
I don’t remember the first time my mother plopped me on the counter so I could help stir a batch of cookies.

Playing hookey from school (a sore throat or something similar) I had my heart set on whoopee pies. I’d seen enough of these marvelous chocolaty sandwiches come out of the oven. It sure looked easy enough. Reading the recipe was a cinch, but somehow my mind transposed 2 cups of flour into 2 Tbs of flour.

Walt Disney said: “The way to get started is to quick talking and begin doing.” One important way a college student can begin doing is to set aside time for goal setting. I recently heard from a student that was in one of my communication classes. I was excited to hear that this student, who was goal oriented and determined achieved his education dream.
