Episode 356 – Sweet Treats
If there’s ever been a month for careless indulgence, it would be December of 2020, so we’re going full-on dessert and pastry beer with some sweet treats for this episode. These five entries have us nostalgic for vacation ice cream shoppes, cozy breakfast diners, and gourmet popcorn stores – despite some initial fears. Also, we are stocking our rage rooms, admiring the Sacred Leavings, sniffin’ stuff at Whole Foods (again), and jiggling like a flan. Diet starts tomorrow.
