Ursula KNAEUSEL

I am a native born + raised Atlanta "girl"...so I knew about Ursula from the Atlanta newspaper + my Mother driving along Cheshire Bridge Road + somehow ALWAYS were stopped by the traffic light in front of Ursula's Cooking School with it's sign out front. I waited for an opening but finally got to join the cooking class + absolutely "fell in love" with every class b/c Ursula NEVER repeated a recipe. And I learned how to fix a holiday turkey dinner in 3 hours. I am now retired + living in...

I took her cooking classes and did catering with her and road with her to people´s houses. She had 16 dogs in 1980-81 when I was around. Great, fun, profesional lady. She taught great recipes! She always said, `You are Dee boss in Dee kitchen ` with her lovely accent! I will always remember her, from some 43 years ago. Loved growing up in Atlanta.

I still have all of my index cards I typed up after classes. Maybe one day I´ll run into one of your cookbooks to buy. Thanks for introducing me to spaghetti squash and especially leek soup. You were a great teacher.

I am sitting here 8 months into a pandemic, and I’ve looked up and seen Ursula’s photo on my wall. It’s a snapshot included with other photos of friends, but her spirit comes back in a rush. I attended her classes for several years and typed her recipes for small cookbooks she published in the late 1970’s or early 1980’s. I have never known a more generous soul. She cared deeply for people, and it wasn’t just words and hugs; she gave time and resources. She worked incredibly hard, teaching...

I have garnered many recipes from the 70's that I use to this day. Every Christmas I make " Good Morning Kisses" for treats. I am sad she is gone but glad i knew her. I love you Ursula. Chea Dukes

I truly enjoyed her classes. She is truly missed

I had to move away and could not continue the classes that I enjoyed so much. There are so many good things to be said about the Lady she was. I learned cooking can be enjoyable and not to take every little thing so seriously. I loved her humor, but there too, was an elegance about her. I have missed her classes and so glad I knew her. Ursula, I am the Boss in my kitchen!!!!
