That is a LOT of really nice looking work. I know jealousy isn't considered one of the better characteristics... but jealous I am. :D

It's kinda like wrestling a gorilla... you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is tired.

Me too. 

I wish you and @Chocolot were here this year — you are both missed.

 

Ruth the bar was filled with a mint meltaway layer. I credit the gorgeous shine on the bars to our talented participants and the EZtemper.

Breakfast with amazingly delicious pastries by @Alleguede. I’m hoping to get one of his raspberry croissants before the end of the workshop.

Looks like a lot of fun!

 

Does anyone know the model name of that stone grinder? I like that it have a "scraper" at both sides of the stone wheels. The one I have only got one.

Was that just plain chocolate? Beautiful temper.

Just plain chocolate! Tempered with the EZtemper I believe.

We quickly cleaned and headed to a local distillery/winery owned by Wayne Gretzky.  We told them the night before we would be bringing a crowd back with us, but....I think they underestimated Workshop people.....

 

They were very accommodating, and had to move a huge table for us...

A couple of us decided on a cocktail flight along with dinner.

the weather was a tad chilly (for those of us from down South), but everyone managed fine and enjoyed themselves.....

 

the flight is (from Right to Left) an “our grotto”; rye and ginger and an estate Manhattan.....all were delicious

It's kinda like wrestling a gorilla... you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is tired.
