To celebrate Lizz's first day with no nausea, this episode kicks off with some tasty inspiration for an at-home bar night with your air fryer and nachos for a crowd.

Today's millennial word of the day is 'Rizzler' with variations of Rizzley Bear, The Rizzard of Oz, Rizz God. This fun twist on the slang word 'rizz' indicates someone with a lot of romantic charisma—despite how Kelly would like it to be used.

Kelly is loving farm life, getting ready for animals, and making her list of car-inspired pig names. Lizz wants to start composting, even if she fails at first. The Carpool Facebook group showed up with their feedback on the Mrs. debate. The gals couldn't have more feelings about being called 'James's mom.' And to wrap up driveway dumps, Kelly killed it this weekend with her freezer Ziti—she's committed to the craft of freezer meals for life.

Toyota announces a record breaking year with sales of 11.1 million vehicles—the most ever sold by a car brand in one year. Also in industry news, some small SUVs now show worrying results in an updated crash test. The Equinox, Mazda CX five, Mitsubishi, Outlander and Volkswagen Taos all scored poor ratings in this updated test and only one passed. Another safety issue has prompted NITSA to open up a preliminary probe into Ford's hand free driving tech after two crashes.

Kelly shares her mother-in-law's poppy seed creamy chicken casserole for today's ditch the drive-through. Combine your chicken, chicken Rice-a-Roni, seasoning blend, sour cream, and cream of mushroom soup in a casserole pan. Top it with Ritz crackers and butter and bake until bubbly.
