Ah, yes, Home Ec. That takes me back!
Sadly I was much better at home ec than wood shop. To this day I am not allowed to use power tools.I didn't have Balancing a Check Book nor the Proper Embassy table setting portion. Wow, she sounded fun!
But like you I had been baking and cooking meals myself for years by that point. So the cooking section was really fun.
Oh I can't wait to hear how woodshop went!
Later!
