Ep. 33: Obsessions: Lace Knits and Hazelnuts
We're going off-script this month and treating ourselves to a whole episode about our current obsessions. No rhyme, no reason, no era - just really cool history.
Torey's facing her fears and diving into an obsession with lace knitting (and/or knitted lace, depending on who you're talking to). Meanwhile, Steph is all in on hazelnuts, and we both make some fabulous nutty dishes.
