Can't wait for more new and tasty things!!
I'm so lucky to have found this podcast! Andrea's interview style is fun, energetic and brings out the personality of the guest. I'm looking forward to discovering new foods and independant creators through this podcast.
I actually purchased Zesty-Z from Alex which is Andrea's first Podcast. It is delicious, completely unique and my friends love it! As a bonus, I get to help out the little guys as well. Supporting local/independant small batch businesses is important and gives me a great feeling. I can't wait to see what other guests Andrea has lined up so I can discover more new and tasty things!
Yes!
What a fantastic idea. I am so excited to listen to all these and get some good reminders of how to stay handy in the kitchen even when I think I'm too busy.
So inspiring!!!
Can't wait for more!!! Love this.
