Okay so I know I have mentioned Branson, Missouri before, but the Hilton Branson Convention Center has an awesome themed weekend going on I wanted to share. The weekend of February 26th through February 27th, you can experience an exclusive Italian Culinary Weekend. The weekend starts off Friday evening with a reception featuring antipasto and hors d’oeuvres, of course paired with delicious Italian wines. All day Saturday, participants will experience a hands-on cooking demonstration featuring the items served the night before and some menu items that will be served on the five-course meal on Saturday night.

The package costs $429 for two people , which includes a deluxe king or double queen bed accommodations for both Friday and Saturday night, the Friday evening reception, Saturday cooking school, Saturday evening five-course dinner, and a goodie bag filled with items from the home chef! You do have to book your reservations by February 23, 2010, so you only have a few more days to book it!

I would love to go to this, mainly because I love to eat, especially Italian! I am also looking to broaden my very limited cooking skills. There are also many other things to take advantage of in Branson, including golfing, swimming, shopping, and even checking out their theater district. I stayed in a Missouri hotel but it was a very long time ago and had fun, now there is so much more to do that I am sure it is even better!
