Sunny Season Pho-Lavors From banh mi sandwiches to pho and other noodle-based eats, Southeast Asian food has gained steam as a trend over the past couple of years, led by the renewed interest in Thai, Malaysian and Vietnamese cuisines. Tonight, we will discuss common Asian ingredients like galangal root, sriracha, herbs and how the French influenced Vietnamese food. The yummy tasting menu includes: Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls with Thai Sweet-n-Sour Sauce, Pork Banh Mi (Vietnamese sandwich with French influence filled with meat, mayo and pickled veggies on a crusty baguette), Pho (a soup with a very rich/flavorful/aromatic broth, rice noodles and fresh garnishes) and Mangoes on Sticky Rice.

Lightroom
Lauri Piton - Zoom Do you have Lightroom and started editing basics, but you feel like you’re a little stuck because you don’t fully know what Lightroom can do? We will walk through Adobe Lightroom Classic and Lightroom CC. Organize your photos in Lightroom and be able to easily find them when you need them. Not happy with your originals? Learn to make your photos better by fixing basic issues like exposure, white balance and crop. The next step is to enhance only certain areas of the photo, maybe part of the photo is dull in color. We will cover how to edit just that area of vision in the photo. We will practice editing your very own photos. Participants need to have Adobe Lightroom CC installed before class begins. Code
