Ingredient Substitutions (0:35:18)

 

How many of you have been in a cooking situation where you have all the right ingredients, only to get to the bottom of the list and find out you’re missing one? Missing ingredients can be such a pain, especially if you are not in the mood to go to the grocery store for the third time. But without knowing what ingredients would work in place of the missing one, it can be scary risking your entire project for a simple substitution mistake. So how can we make what we want even without that last ingredient? This morning, we’re joined by Dave Joachim, a professional food writer and author of “The Food Substitutions Bible,” here with us to talk about how to save your recipe by just changing a few ingredients.

Modern Day Noah’s Ark (1:25:53)

 

When you first heard Bible stories as a kid, did you ever wish you could be there to experience them for yourself? Like with Noah and the flood for example. Curiosity led us to ask questions like how big was the ark and how did the animals fit inside? The story of Noah’s Ark continues to fascinate us today, and there have been multiple reports of people supposedly “finding” the arc or speculating about its existence. While we don’t know for sure what happened to it, you can experience a real model of it. Today we are speaking with Roger Patterson from Answers in Genesis, to talk about a life-size Noah’s ark you can visit in a Kentucky museum to see what it would have been like to be on the ancient ship.
