Maggie confesses to not sending “thank you” notes in a timely fashion and Sarah forgives her… mostly.
Their fictional patreon Beatrice, on the other hand, might be getting a little irritated by her lack of mail.
Plus they spill facts like Romans spilled wine, like these two doozies:
Fact: Buckets have been around since the 6th century BC, carrying and holding liquids of all kinds. But it wasn't until the Romans needed an easy way to move their wine that handles were added to make the bucket more transportable.
React: Romans added handles to buckets to make moving wine easier... What's something that makes your life easier?
And…
Fact: Though popular in Italian restaurants, the Caesar salad was not created in Italy! It was first made in Tijuana, Mexico in the 1920s! The creator, Alex Cardini, served it at his brother Caesar's restaurant - hence the name of this delicious appetizer.
React: Caesar salads were invented in Mexico and are now a popular Italian restaurant appetizer. What's a meal from another culture you make so regularly your family would think you invented it?
