Episode 81 - A Year at Catbird Cottage by Melina Hammer

Hello and welcome to Tasty Pages, a podcast from Cooking The Books. In this episode, we celebrate the second anniversary of this podcast! We also chat about Johnny's inadvertent use of red onions as a dye, some breaking news in the breakfast cereal world, an exciting announcement regarding teaching cooking classes once again and a local neighborhood street fair. Speaking of Fairs, our show question is: What is your favorite State and/or County Fair food? Then, we talk about our featured cookbook, 'A Year at Catbird Cottage' by Melina Hammer. For our Gastro Obscura segment - Victoria takes us to the bogs of Ireland to explain why they make a perfect environment for preserving butter (but not dead bodies)! Lastly, Johnny makes absolutely no one laugh with a foraging-adjacent joke!
