  • Ep21: Best Memory Booster, Favorite Fall Recipes, Discovering Your Inner "Lazy Genius"

    In this Episode: 

    Lots of topics today!  The bunny trail starts with a discussion of our 20's, leads to a brief plug for 100 Humans, and goes on to cover sleep habits and favorite recipes.  We also discuss Kendra Adachi's Lazy Genius philosophy and her new book The Lazy Genius Kitchen (We love her!  So witty and smart!) 

    And speaking of hanging out in the kitchen, here are a couple of recipes to try: 

    8 Can Taco Soup  

    Polish Dumplings (Lorilee is too lazy to type out the recipe from her youth, but this one is very similar.  And she would absolutely use leftover mashed potatoes that have had sour cream and butter already added, but she'd skip the breadcrumbs and substitute for gravy-yum!  Oh!  Or try this One!)

    On this episode: 

    Andrea and Lorilee (with special guest Hailey) discuss the "TheaTAAAHHHH, Dahling..." Specifically the Off Broadway play that Lorilee and Hailey experienced on their recent trip to NYC.   This naturally morphs to reliving their own theatrical debuts, and inevitable screw ups.  But the show must go on!
