Episode 88 - Evergreen Kitchen by Bri Beaudoin

Hello and welcome to a holiday episode of Tasty Pages, a podcast from Cooking The Books! Johnny begins the show with a love letter to Lyft and USPS - both offering services that would still be a bargain at twice the price. Unlike, say, paying someone to pump your gas (New Jersey residents, you have our deepest sympathies!) We also share what our collective Christmas gift purchase is to ourselves. What is it? Listen to find out!  Then, I share a story about a grocery purchase fail for an ingredient required for Victoria's cookie baking (note to self: I really need to learn Spanish). We also share some news of a top-secret catering gig we were about to begin when this episode was recorded (spoiler alert: the band was Needtobreathe!). Then, we move on to our listener question: What are your biggest dining and/or cooking etiquette "pet peeves"? Finally, we chat about our featured cookbook, 'Evergreen Kitchen' by  Bri Beaudoin. For our Gastro Obscura segment - Victoria takes us to Germany (via Michigan) to discuss the lore of the Christmas pickle. Lastly, Johnny shares a perfectly crafted dual holiday joke that will surely have listeners wanting more.
