I was so impressed with the student’s demos yesterday!  They all put a lot of effort into becoming great teachers and did an amazing job!  Today they have their big test and then it’s graduation, complete with graduation cake – Chocolate Mousse Tart with Strawberry Coulis.  Yum!

Some of our students are staying on for Gourmet Chef Certification for the next three weeks, and some are leaving us to go out into the world and spread the joy of raw foods.  One of our  students,  Alan White, is  doing both.

Chef and Instructor Graduate Alan White

He is dedicated to becoming a teacher, and he’s planning to go home and put his teacher training to use, then return for our Gourmet Raw Food Chef certification program. I’m inspired by his drive and ambition.  Alan has worked on several farms, including a coffee bean and macadamia nut farm in Hawaii.  He will spend some time honing the  chef skills he learned at Living Light while teaching his own classes, and then finish “gourmet” and the Dina’s Science of Raw Food Nutrition Series.  He was very inspired by Jennifer Cornbleet and plans to follow in her footsteps!  I wish him the best of luck in the future!
