Cooks’Wares Spring and Summer Class Schedule is here, and it’s packed with talented local chefs and teachers, mouth-watering menus and fine choices for cooks of any skill levels. We welcome back two especially popular visiting chefs and authors, Diane Phillips – the Diva of Do-Ahead, and George Geary.

Everyone is busy, so we included lots of menus that are perfect for entertaining or family meals and can be prepared quickly or made ahead. You can cook these delicious dishes as your schedule allows, and serve them with confidence later.

We have a Kids Class in June at Settler’ Walk, and a 4 day Kids Series plus a 3 day Tween Series in July at Harper’s Point. We’ll have all your family members cooking!

There is one very special class that we would like to bring to your attention, as it benefits 7 Days for SIDS. Those attending will experience a great class with Marilyn Harris, enjoy a fine menu, learn useful techniques, and support a most worthy cause.

All proceeds will be donated to 7 Days for SIDS in recognition of its service to the community.  This locally based fund  created by Jean-Robert and Annette de Cavel, benefits the Sudden Infant Death Network of Ohio and the Tatiana de Cavel Scholarship fund at Midwest Culinary Institute at Cincinnati State. We thank Marilyn Harris who has long been an active supporter of the cause, and bigg’s, which is contributing ingredients, for their contributions to this class.

Marilyn Harris, CCP, called “Cincinnati’s gastronomic guru” by Cincinnati Magazine, has written 3 top selling cookbooks: Cooking with Marilyn, Marilyn Harris Cooking School and Live from Marilyn’s Kitchen. She also hosts a popular radio show on WKRC 550 AM.  Her column “Cooking with Marilyn,” has returned to The Cincinnati Enquirer, and her new podcasts offer an up to the minute way to learn.  Marilyn shares her expertise at respected cooking schools and continually expands her knowledge, bringing new ideas and techniques every time. 
You always learn more than you expect from Marilyn!  Come see why her classes are so popular!

When we think of entertaining, we think of Marilyn Harris.  Drawing on her wealth of experience, Marilyn will share tips and tricks so that you will be able to create the perfect summer dinner party at your home.  Join us for a great class, and support a worthy cause!
