Make The Holidays Fun, Amy’s Favorite Recipes, Kat Learns What PTL Means (5th Thing)

Today’s quote: “Therapy should have open houses like elementary school so my therapist can meet everyone I talk about” - @steadfastcounseling 

Inspired by Annie Downs, “That Sounds Fun”, Amy & Kat talk about making a list of things that sound fun to you during the stressful holiday season (rather than just focusing on the things that sound like a drag on your to do list). Ideas include:

Grabbing your favorite coffee drink

Baking chocolate chip cookies

Hiking in the woods 

Reading a good book

Singing carpool karaoke 

Have a game night

Curling up by a fire

Learning something new 

What sounds fun to you?? Make a list! 

Amy & Kat have fun playing The Toast’s “When You Know The Words To The Song” Game 

Other topics discussed:

Cooking for the holidays (links to Amy’s fav recipes below!)

Apple TV’s “Lessons in Chemistry” (spoiler alert!) and other shows that remind us of the double standards women used to face

Do you feel stressed when trying to verify you're not a robot??

Bonus quotes: 

“The future is going to be crazy” 

“Today I completed a chore that I’ve been putting off for 6 months. It took 15 minutes. I will learn nothing from this” 

“I love the concept of being somebody’s peace, but unfortunately I’m insane”
