JFF: What Would You like to Learn?

If I could have stayed in school as a career, I would have, lol. I would just love to take college class after college class learning about everything from astronomy to ancient sumarians to ceramics to languages. I'm a geek :)

I would like to become fluent in a second language and I would like to learn the piano. These are both things my kids can do, but I can't!

I want to learn more about sauces - the basic ones and the more complicated ones. I make an excellent marinara, white sauce, brown gravy, etc., but when I watch the cooking shows they always keep talking about a beurre blanc and different types of more elaborate sauces, and they just whip them up without a recipe. I'd like to become comfortable making more sauces. I love cooking!

Every year I try to learn something new every year. This year it's painting on canvas and next year will be playing the tenor saxophone. My husband is a musician. He plays guitar, drums, keyboard but not any wind instruments.

i have leanred to do alot.. but i would like to learn more about that stuff. i can sew but have only done 2 patterns so learning the ins and outs to be good at it would be fun. i learned piano as a kid but forgot how to play when i stopped taking lessons, so don't know much past level 3 and would love to learn more about that. i took a second language in highschool but not past that so learning more of that language so i could actually use it would be nice too.

if i had to pick something that i have never done before i would love to learn how to sheer a sheep and turn that wool into yarn for crocheting (if i owned cheep i would have my hobby paid for... making that another one to add to the cheapest thing i want to do thread)

I wish I could sew. I've tried to teach myself, but I am neither a good teacher nor a good student. I also would like to learn Spanish. Maybe I should go ahead and give that one a try...

I sometimes do this at the community college. They have great adult ed. Not too long ago I took a landscaping class. I'd also like take some kind of art class - maybe sculpture. Learning conversational Spanish is also on my list.

I would love to know how to fix/build things...! For the most part, I'm too chicken to even try.

I want to learn how to work with hypertufa.
Someday I'll have the time to take the class at the botanical gardens.

I wish I had learned to swim. I thought about taking lessons but I have trust issues so I don't think it would work for me.
