December 9, 2015 at 8:40 pmI love Graham Elliot, he’s seriously amazing, isn’t he?! I was in awe when I shook his hand. And I really appreciate your talk about your relationship with food – I was a serious calorie counter for all of college and I’m less so now, but occasionally fall back into those bad habits so hearing your own story was a good reminder to continue the journey :) Last, Andrew and I are also HUGE fans of pizza (Andrew especially loves those margherita pizzas haha). Do you guys have a favorite place here in Indy?
Great episode guys!!

December 22, 2015 at 1:26 pmI just want to say a big thank you to the two of you for your website and podcast (which I love!). I have two small children and with the craziness that comes along with having young children I don’t often find the time to take care of myself. Exercise is far and few between so my mission has been to eat good food and provide nutritious meals for my family. Being in the kitchen has become my creative outlet and your love of food has helped me do that. So, thank you and happy holidays!

I love your philosophy on bringing nutritious food to your family, and having a creative outlet at the same time (us too!). SO glad you are enjoying the podcast – it’s a new venture so it means the world to have positive feedback. Happy holidays to you!
