Haunted Mitten Podcast

This is an episode I have waited years to do! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did researching and recording it! --Kay

This week we bring you BIGFOOT! We talk about the history, sightings, and out-there theories about who or wha the Big Guy is.

Thanks to LynBDesigns for amaaaazing polishes and wax melts. These colors are getting me through the season! Check out lynbdesigns.store for all their wonderful products!
