"The Little Mexican Cooking School" in Puerto Morelos

[Michele]

When I received the email last week from Catriona Brown in Puerto Morelos, I really wasn't sure what to expect. An empty seat had come available in her interesting new endeavor, The Little Mexican Cooking School and she invited me to sit in on the class. I had been receiving information about these classes from the founders, Cat and Patti Murphy, since the inception of the school last Fall and, on paper at least, it looked very promising. On the other hand, I have been in Mexico long enough to see a lot of poorly conceived but well-meaning enterprises go up in smoke, so I was a bit skeptical. I have also attended a few "cooking classes" in the United States, most of which eventually degraded into a catered cocktail party with the guests all getting soused and forgetting everything about the meal. What if this class was just another hair-brained scheme designed to milk money out of unsuspecting tourists? What would I say to my friend and fellow blogger? What kind of a review could I possibly give if it totally stunk? So, as I made the drive to Puerto Morelos last Friday, I was excited but my emotions were understandably mixed.......
