Not A Single Fork

Our intention this season was to go to market but the Universe had different plans for us. Like so many people, we pivoted (that’s the new word now, you know), took our lemons and turned them into lemonade. We pivoted in a few ways: one was to turn the podcast marketing adventure into a pantry and home-bound one, another was to expand our catering business to shore up the gap caused by shutting do...

Reopening is fresh on everybody’s minds from chomping at the bit to ummm, I think it’s too early, let’s wait and see. We’re falling more in the latter camp. We, of course, want to reopen (I know everyone does) but we’re trying to be prudent and professional about it. So, the city Natalia and I live in is Tulsa. It started phasing in reopening of the city, May 1st, but Broken Arrow down the express...

Stay in as much as you can. Trips out only to restock the toilet paper and the liquor cabinet. We hope you are staying safe and healthy in these trying times. Change is hard but it’s the only constant if you stop and think about it. Life will never be the same after this but we’re discovering how resilient and resourceful we can all be. We love you guys. Keep listening and hang in there! And, if y...

Still in the house; still foraging.. In this episode, Natalia brings interesting items from her pantry over to mine for another game of What’s In Your Pantry?! Can’t begin to tell you how much I love game show music. I guess I am just a frustrated game show host! Music aside, we had a great time figuring out what to do with all of the crazy stuff that Natalia has in her pantry. These days you need...

Desperate times call for desperate measures and while we’re really not desperate (at least not yet), we certainly have to be a lot more creative. So, if we can’t go to any of the grocery stores just for fun, we can hang out in my kitchen and forage through my pantry. (The picture included with this post is one of my pantry so you do have a visual.) And, Natalia had a great time rummaging through a...

With the best of intentions, we began our third season. Our plans included visiting many food markets, groceries, wine stores and more but COVID-19 had different plans. So, like most of you listening, we are staying home and making the best of it. I, for one, am getting lots of things done that I simply don’t have time for under normal conditions. Natalia is doing the same. For the record, we have...

Annnnd, we’re BACK! It seems like forevah since last we connected but we’ve created some great content for you and we hope you enjoy it. I like to think that it was worth the wait. We wanted to do some new things to keep you (and us) interested in making cooking and food, fun and stress-free so here’s what we’re doing this season. We’re cracking the food shopping code (as they say). More interview...

Betcha thought you’d been seeing hats and horns and champagne glasses clinking, right? Nope, we get right down to the food, surprise!

We’re running a little behind getting the podcast episode finished up but it is Christmas Eve! This is an especially fun episode for us because both of my daughters are in the house and join in to share their favorite holiday foods, traditions, and memories. We’re an unusually raucous bunch but we hope you have as much fun hearing about warm toasted nuts with KC Lupp on FOX23’s Great Day Green Cou...

It’s all about how you like to celebrate. It’s nearly “go time” so we thought instead of regaling you with more checklists and countdowns, we would share personal traditions and how we like to spend the holiday…having fun and making memories. In this episode, we find the origin of the Christmas tree tradition (and burning of the house), the foods people eat all over the world during the holiday se...

Here we are! Barrelling toward the end of the year. Still trying to keep you amused and not stressed out as the rest of the holiday season sneaks up on you. We’re all into pre-planning, you know, so this episode is full of ways to prepare for anything that could happen. At least, that’s our plan. So along with sharing what we did for Thanksgiving, there’s a little taste of shopping, parties, and d...

Light, fluffy and goes down easy…this episode is personal and just FUN! We spent such a long time fussing over checklists and countdowns and “to dos” that we completely overlooked talking about our personal Thanksgivings and favorites.. Ready or not, here they come! We’ve sprinkled some valuable information in here and there but mostly this is what we have been told you like best…the personal stuf...

I’m pretty sure there’s very little left to say after taking in that amazing meme. Thank you ME.ME (https://me.me/)for creating that image! It makes me super happy! I hope you’re enjoying it as much as I am. So, have you tried calling the Butterball Turkey Hotline (https://www.butterball.com/)? If you haven’t and you need some turkey advice, you really need to.
