Dating at any time can be extremely stressful and disheartening. Love in the time of quarantine is almost impossible with social distancing and all. Since we can’t casually date anymore, we decided to focus on some negative stories about dating. Nydia tells us about a daddy vampire, a queen witch, and the tragic Tinder murder of Sydney Loofe. Dana tells us about a real date from hell story that will make you swear off dating ever again, with the story of the abduction of Aretha Donaldson. 

 

For dinner, we went with a romantic dinner approach. Nydia prepared a garlic butter steak and potato skillet. For dessert, Dana made a beautiful arrangement of cheesecake stuffed strawberries that will impress any lover.  The wine this week was Line 39 cabernet sauvignon 2017 and it was amazing and only costs between $7 to $10. This wine is very highly rated and we recommend you try it.

We are hunkered down for another week of social distancing and it looks like concerts will be a thing of the past. We at the Wine, Dine, and Storytime podcast feel bad about this. Since we can’t have concerts for the foreseeable future, we figure we may as well speak negatively on the matter to take the sting out of it. This week Dana tells us about the Berlin Love Parade tragedy that took the lives of 21 people and Nydia tells us about Steven Paddock and the 2017 Las Vegas concert shootings. If this doesn’t take the sting out of missing concerts, we don’t know what will. 

For dinner, the theme was tailgating. Dana made delicious bunless burgers, wings and fries. Nydia tried her hand at cracker toffee which was essentially saltines, covered in caramel, chocolate, and nuts.  The wine this week was canned wine! We tried First Press Ruby Red Rose. We never had canned wine before and it was delicious. But be careful, they go down smooth and before you know it you’ve had the equivalent of a bottle and a half of wine. Tread lightly on this one.

It's week 7 of this never-ending quarantine and our travel plans have been canceled. Since we can’t travel anymore, we decided to focus on some negative stories about traveling. We ruin traveling this week! Nydia tells us about Charles Sobhraj, the Bikini Killer also known as the Serpent or the Splitting Killer and Dana tells us about the Bennington Triangle and all the mysterious disappearances there. Stay home friends!

For dinner, we went with the theme of vacation fare. Nydia was supposed to travel to Puerto Rico and so she prepared Puerto Rican pork ribs with rice and beans. For dessert, Dan tried her hand at copycat Disney Resort's Gray Stuff from Beauty and the Beast, and yes we tried it and yes it was delicious!  The wine this week was The Seeker cabernet sauvignon which went well with the heavy meal.

As we hunker down for what seems like an eternity, we reminisce about the things we can no longer enjoy. This week it’s theme parks. During this quarantine, we are missing theme parks, bad! Since we can't visit amusement parks anymore, we decided to focus on some negative stories coming out of them. Dana tells us of all the accidents, deaths, and maimings at Six Flags theme parks and Nydia tells us all about the most dangerous amusement park in the world, New Jersey’s very own Action Park. 

For dinner, the theme was amusement park food. Nydia made a copy cat recipe of Woody’s Lunchbox Totchos and grilled cheese from Disney’s Hollywood Studios.  Dana tried her hand at a theme park favorite, the funnel cake. The wine this week was the intensely rich J. Lohr Cabernet Sauvignon 2017.

During this quarantine week, we were missing restaurants, bad! Since we can't eat out anymore, we decided to focus on some negative stories coming out of restaurants. We ruined restaurants this week! Dana tells us the story of the Fast Food Serial Killer and Nydia tells us the story of The Eight Immortals Restaurant Murders also known as the Pork Bun Murders.

For dinner, Dana prepared steak with peppercorn sauce, sweet potato fries, and asparagus. For dessert, Nydia made cinnamon rolls using Pillsbury crescent roll dough. We ate apart. The wine this week was Poizin Zinfandel 2016 from Armida Winery.

We are still in quarantine folks so this is a pre-quarantine episode. We speak to Virginia who considers herself a person sensitive to spirits and otherworldly beings. Virginia tells us of the time she was on the Ancient Aliens show, how she came to be connected to the spirit world, and she uncovers that Nydia may have a male spirit living in her house. Nydia shares some personal stories, our friends share their personal stories, and Dana tells us about the unsolved murder of the Jamison family.

For dinner we had Creamy Garlic Tuscan Salmon with Spinach and Sun Dried Tomatoes. For dessert Dana made chocolate Twix cupcakes. We shared a bottle of The Pairing a 2017 Rose of Pinot Noir.

New Jersey was hit pretty hard with Covid19 cases so this week we are sharing stories remotely. We interview Naida who is currently living in China during this quarantine. She shares with us some of the challenges of being a foreigner in China during this time; what the initial experience was like; how she managed to stay sane with her two teenagers and friend; and she shares how they are managing the outbreak there. 

Nydia tells us about the deadliest outbreak the world has ever had, Black Death also known as the Black Plague, or the Bubonic Plague. Are you even surprised? Dana shares with us some stories of mass panic and hysteria such as the Meowing Nuns, the Dancing Plague of 1518, the Tanganyika laughter epidemic of 1962, and the Dancing Plague of 1518. Not the current toilet paper crisis, but just as silly. 

For dinner, Nydia prepares a slow cooker creamy chicken recipe using things right from her pantry.  For dessert, Dana makes cake pops with a germ theme also with ingredients right out of her pantry. There was no wine this week because we decided to drink Corona beer to keep in theme with the Coronavirus quarantine.

This week we are sharing some stories of the real wonder women of history. Nydia tells us about the Onna Bugeisha, the female Samurai warriors of Japan.  Dana shares with us the fascinating story of Odette Marie Léonie Céline Braillyand, the bombshell spy for the good guys during World War II.  For dinner, Nydia orders take out from Bone Fish Grill because we are in quarantine and it's the responsible thing to do. Also, because women don't need to be in the kitchen. For dessert, Dana picked up macarons from Bake Works, a local bakery, because supporting local businesses during this time is important.
