In 7th grade I had this African-American woman as my Foods and You class instructor. We would watch her make stuff on Monday, we'd look up the recipe on Tuesday, and would whip up whatever the current selection was on Friday. She taught us how to make monkey bread . Hers was the best recipe ever; want me to ask her for it? Just to give you an impression of what she's like, imagine a 35 year old black woman singing love songs while making monkey bread to her students. I gotta admit that I loved the class, though, because her final was to make anything. I made a stuffed crust cheese pizza and got an A in the class.
