Thinking about taking a cooking class but don’t know if it is worth it? Is the name of your most cooked meal synonymous with the words “fast food” or “helper”?
If so, a cooking class may be right up your alley.

4) Wine Appreciation Workshop
Let’s just admit it; choosing wine is an intimidating process.
Many a times, we find ourselves scanning over all the bottles, wishing for a serendipitous encounter, yet ending up with the same old choices; the three or four recommendations from family and friends. Alternatively, we might spend about two hours in the wine aisle, determined to try something new; only to be deeply disappointed.
This new year, try something different by attending a wine appreciation workshop! See, smell, taste, and discover different types of wine; learn how to tell them apart and perhaps find one that you love!

11) Terrarium Workshop
What are terrariums you may ask? Terrariums are the next best alternatives for growing plants in places that are not very conducive; especially for most of us who have low-light work space or moisture-deficient living rooms. They are essentially glass bowls filled with earthly resources such as soil, plants, and rocks.
Hence, a terrarium becomes a biosphere that elevates humidity, keeps plants self-watered, and regulates the overall mini ecosystem on autopilot with minimal interference.
This new year, go eco-friendly by contributing to the green movement and developing green fingers! Create your very own mini garden for you to place in your home or office desk! It will definitely add a fresh, new look to your work space.
