This week we’re talking about lab-grown meat, why The Spotted Pig needs to go, clarified butter spa treatments, why baking is so therapeutic, what you shouldn’t be doing with vodka, and so much more. Danielle recounts her dinner at a drool-worthy restaurant and Sherród has something to say about a peculiar cooking show. And as always, we have great instacrushes and things we love, hate, and ate.
