Welp. We made it to 2021. Should you be cooking at home in 2021? Uh, yes. Yes you should. Time for a smorgasbord!
Mentioned in this episode
Every year, I think about redoing and updating my very first episode (To Cook or Not to Cook). And every year, I realize nothing I talked about in that very first episode has really changed. It all still applies. BUT…2020. Sheesh. I do have a few rambling thoughts!
I got three really awesome cookbooks for Christmas. I share a few thoughts about each. Links below (remember, these are Amazon affiliate links):
Original Flava: Caribbean Recipes from Home, by Craig and Shaun McAnuff. British brothers head to Jamaica to explore the foods that their grandparents made. Many great island recipes both traditional and with a modern spin.
The Rise: Black Cooks and the Soul of American Food, by Marcus Samuelsson with Osayi Endolyn. A cookbook about race, class, and the equity or the American food landscape.
Hero’s Feast: The Official D&D Cookbook, by Kyle Newman, Jon Peterson, and Michael Witwer. Grab your sword, strap on the armor, and whip yourself up a plate of Otik’s Spiced Potatoes and more from the most popular fantasy realms of all time.
Podcast Shoutout!
My friend Trinity has a new podcast called Gumdrop Readers! She reads kids stories to kids, and does an absolutely great job. She even read one of my favorites, The Gruffalo! If this sounds up your alley (or your kids’ alley), swing by and give her show a listen.
