NO ONE was hurt when this car driven by Kelly Renix skidded on to its side near the International Plaza
recently, The police and firemen at the scene said the rainy weather had resulted in a busy night for acci-

dents,

chef to
teach

NOW THAT winter has sunk its
cold, wet claws into the North
Shore, it's time for a little sweet
relicf.

To that end, Rec Centre Lons-
dale will present pastry chef
Werner Schmidt for three creative
culinary workshops.

All three will run on Sundays
from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Sen-
sational Starters on Jan. 24 will
provide students with the oppor-
tunity to learn about puff pastry
and how to prepare unique and
delicious appetizers.

Schmidt will present Sugar Pull-
ing on Feb. 7 and Sugar Blowing
on March 27. Sugar Pulling will be
taught as a technique for making
baskets, ribbons and flowers for
Valentine’s Day.

Sugar Blowing is an art similar
to glass blowing in which the artist
can create beautiful figurines like
eggs and bunnies for Easter.

Schmidt is classically trained as
a pastry chef in his native Ger-
many where he went to school and
apprenticed in Essen before going
on to work in Switzerland. Since
coming to Canada in 1960, he has
worked at the Dutch Bakery, the
Hotel Vancouver, the Holiday Inn,
the Bayshore and on the Van-
couver-to-Alaska cruise ship run.

Schmidt’s teaching credits in-
clude demonstrations on CBC’s
Wok With Yan, the baker’s club,
department store and local televi-
sion demonstrations, and
workshops with the North Van-
couver Recreation Commission for
five years.

Says Schmidt, ‘‘Besides the
demonstration and the recipe,
people will get a taste of what I
make, an example to bring home
and a few laughs along the way.”’

Anyone interested in the
workshops should register im-
mediately by phone at 987-PLAY
or in person at any North Van-
couver Recreation Commission fa-
cility.
