00:05:03.963 --> 00:05:05.153 So that's coming. 00:05:06.004 --> 00:05:07.173 I think in the next week or so. 00:05:07.173 --> 00:05:18.574 So I know there's some local places, whether those are restaurants or little shops and going to support, but for other items that we need throughout the year, now's a good time to get in on that. 00:05:18.971 --> 00:05:22.992 All right, so let's get into what we're consuming and then we'll chat gift guide. 00:05:23.742 --> 00:05:24.401 Uh, okay. 00:05:24.401 --> 00:05:26.922 So Diane, what are you consuming? 00:05:27.963 --> 00:05:30.574 So on the food front, a couple of things. 00:05:30.574 --> 00:05:40.324 Speaking of local restaurants, I've mentioned cafe Mamo before it was a boost mobile at one time, and now it is a really cute, oh my gosh. 00:05:40.324 --> 00:05:41.613 That was an Uber notification. 00:05:41.644 --> 00:05:42.634 Sorry, friends. 00:05:42.644 --> 00:05:44.043 I'm not using that anytime soon. 00:05:45.293 --> 00:05:47.869 Socafe mamo was in this little local restaurant. 00:05:47.869 --> 00:05:50.178 They source so much of their products locally. 00:05:50.178 --> 00:05:51.108 It's all in season. 00:05:51.139 --> 00:05:59.629 They have a really thoughtful cocktail and wine menu, but I had this pork shank, not for our Jewish listeners, but it was a pork shank. 00:05:59.658 --> 00:06:03.139 And it was what I imagined was like the meat equivalent of a cinnamon roll. 00:06:03.139 --> 00:06:05.928 The outside was this really nice layer. 00:06:06.139 --> 00:06:08.778 And then this center was this Tendy center. 00:06:09.019 --> 00:06:10.608 The fun part that everyone fights over. 00:06:11.658 --> 00:06:19.999 With the cinnamon roll, but we had that and this like orange chocolate tart with an orange, caramel, sea salt and like orange vest on top. 00:06:20.598 --> 00:06:22.309 I needed it to be like 10 sizes bigger. 00:06:22.309 --> 00:06:23.269 It was so good. 00:06:23.749 --> 00:06:24.139 So-so 00:06:24.166 --> 00:06:24.497 yummy. 00:06:24.497 --> 00:06:32.437 But the reason it's confusing to me is

because like, you know, Chocolate and orange juice is like the worst combination ever. 00:06:32.899 --> 00:06:38.538 What, what have you never seen those like chocolate oranges that you like break apart into segments? 00:06:38.899 --> 00:06:39.348 It's like that? 00:06:39.547 --> 00:06:44.166 yeah, but like if I take a bite of chocolate and then take a sip of orange juice, like that's as bad 00:06:44.194 --> 00:06:45.064 Oh, it's wrong. 00:06:45.156 --> 00:06:46.927 teeth and drinking orange juice, you know? 00:06:47.434 --> 00:06:48.574 Yeah, that's wrong. 00:06:48.574 --> 00:06:55.684 But this together, it was like a dark chocolate, very rich chocolate tart with chocolate ganache, something like that. 00:06:55.684 --> 00:06:56.613 It wasn't quite a mousse. 00:06:56.824 --> 00:06:58.653 And then a little crust. 00:06:58.803 --> 00:06:59.793 It was so good. 00:06:59.793 --> 00:07:00.634 I want the recipe. 00:07:00.634 --> 00:07:01.663 I want to figure out what they. 00:07:02.151 --> 00:07:05.901 Yeah, it sounds yummy, but I'm trying to figure out if I like it in my mouth. 00:07:06.858 --> 00:07:07.158 thank you. 00:07:07.158 --> 00:07:08.149 It like that in your mouth. 00:07:08.449 --> 00:07:18.798 Um, we also, Neil made this, I'm calling it like his hot honey sauce, but it was coconut aminos G uh, touch a fish sauce that can go wrong real quick. 00:07:18.798 --> 00:07:24.348 If you aren't watching some raw honey and a bunch of sir ratchet, and we did that on chicken thighs. 00:07:24.709 --> 00:07:26.389 It was so good. 00:07:26.851 --> 00:07:30.572 Yeah, the combination of honey and like spice is so good. 00:07:31.069 --> 00:07:31.369 Yeah. 00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:32.119 Hi honey. 00:07:32.418 --> 00:07:34.309 So that's what we've been consuming on the food front. 00:07:34.309 --> 00:07:34.968 What about you? 00:07:34.971 --> 00:07:35.661 Yum. 00:07:36.141 --> 00:07:38.331 Honestly, it's been really simple around here. 00:07:38.331 --> 00:07:40.372 I have not made anything too interesting. 00:07:40.822 --> 00:07:43.432 I'm thinking about what I'm going to make for Thanksgiving. 00:07:43.461 --> 00:07:50.422 I'm bringing like two desserts and a salad to my sister's house, so I haven't quite sorted out exactly what that's going to be, but I might make. 00:07:51.432 --> 00:07:58.331 In years past, I've made a dairy-free pumpkin cheesecake, which is really yummy. 00:07:58.541 --> 00:08:07.781 And I do like a little chocolate swirl in there too, but again, we love dairy on this show because our Thanksgiving meal is meat and we keep strict kosher. 00:08:07.961 --> 00:08:09.221 We don't do dairy with meat. 00:08:09.221 --> 00:08:10.101 So I will probably be. 00:08:10.992 --> 00:08:13.302 The kite hill cream cheese for that. 00:08:13.331 --> 00:08:22.872 And I've done that in the past and it is very good, but just make sure that you buy the plain one and not like the scallion or everything, cream cheese, because that would be gross in a cheesecake. 00:08:23.584 --> 00:08:24.483 That would be a nightmare. 00:08:24.483 --> 00:08:31.173 I actually had to rearrange our spice cabinet because we had our worst Chester Shire sauce next to our vanilla extract. 00:08:31.473 --> 00:08:32.974 And they look similar. 00:08:34.264 --> 00:08:34.504 Yeah. 00:08:34.533 --> 00:08:36.543 Not what I would be looking for at all. 00:08:36.573 --> 00:08:36.933 It'd be good. 00:08:36.933 --> 00:08:37.533 April fool's day 00:08:37.826 --> 00:08:48.116 Yeah, I've mixed up, um, cinnamon and paprika before, which is fine in like a stew or a roast, but not in oatmeal. 00:08:50.014 --> 00:08:50.583 did you eat it? 00:08:51.251 --> 00:08:52.001 Yes. 00:08:52.032 --> 00:08:53.351 And it was not good. 00:08:54.461 --> 00:09:00.942 It was the kind of thing where like, I, I noticed right after I poured it in, so I scooped off like enough that it wasn't terrible. 00:09:01.422 --> 00:09:03.042 But yeah, my spice 00:09:03.063 --> 00:09:04.024 I don't like that in 00:09:04.121 --> 00:09:06.822 right now and I was in a rush and it happens. 00:09:08.403 --> 00:09:09.903 Don't like that in my mouth. 00:09:10.683 --> 00:09:12.333 What about on the media front?

00:09:54.267 --> 00:09:55.947 What led to the rise in fame? 00:09:56.067 --> 00:09:57.356 What were people hungry for? 00:09:57.356 --> 00:10:02.366 What will, you know, like that pendulum swing of art and culture history that I love so much. 00:10:03.177 --> 00:10:05.067 So this was more just about the album. 00:10:05.067 --> 00:10:06.356 It was really enjoyable. 00:10:06.356 --> 00:10:07.076 And I will say. 00:10:08.052 --> 00:10:09.101 Grown-up Alanis. 00:10:09.101 --> 00:10:10.721 Morissette is a treat. 00:10:10.841 --> 00:10:13.241 She's just so fun to watch on the screen. 00:10:14.089 --> 00:10:15.129 I mean growing up Atlanta. 00:10:15.221 --> 00:10:20.201 Like she was in the dock now, reflecting back on that time. 00:10:20.958 --> 00:10:21.708 the nineties. 00:10:21.708 --> 00:10:22.099 Right? 00:10:22.902 --> 00:10:34.572 and it was really, it was really interesting to hear about these songs as they were written and Dani and I just kept saying it's so hard for us to

appreciate the authenticity with which she wrote all these songs. 00:10:35.697 --> 00:10:45.777 Because all those songs have been kind of, kind of become a bit in our generation, you know, like the office episode where Kevin does the karaoke to you. 00:10:45.897 --> 00:10:47.547 Yo yo yo Otto. 00:10:47.547 --> 00:10:48.057 No. 00:10:48.537 --> 00:10:48.927 No. 00:10:49.683 --> 00:10:50.043 Yup. 00:10:50.163 --> 00:10:51.214 I know exactly what 00:10:51.397 --> 00:10:54.336 So it was hard to like, watch her sing them authentically. 00:10:54.336 --> 00:11:00.366 The first time she was writing them and not think of them as like doing a bit of themselves, you know what I mean?

00:14:22.886 --> 00:14:24.537 I had to recover from that one. 00:14:24.596 --> 00:14:25.557 It was really well done. 00:14:25.557 --> 00:14:27.897 It took a turn

towards the end. 00:14:27.897 --> 00:14:37.437 I didn't expect it to, um, and it was interesting that they did not choose to include his girlfriend in the documentary. 00:14:37.437 --> 00:14:39.326 And I wonder how she felt about that. 00:14:40.422 --> 00:14:40.812 Overall. 00:14:40.812 --> 00:14:41.532 It was really well done. 00:14:41.532 --> 00:14:55.481 I don't think I mentioned this last time because I didn't get there yet, but they use this deep fake technology basically submitted like 12 hours of audio, whether that was him from his show or Tony reading his book to have him read an email, he sent to someone 00:14:55.764 --> 00:14:56.394 hate that 00:14:56.861 --> 00:14:58.481 It didn't sound odd, but I remember watching it. 00:14:58.481 --> 00:15:01.662 I was like, wait, how is he reading a private email that he sent 00:15:02.095 --> 00:15:03.115 don't sign me up for that. 00:15:03.205 --> 00:15:03.985 I don't like that. 00:15:04.164 --> 00:15:05.934 I don't like technology changing stuff. 00:15:05.965 --> 00:15:06.625 I don't like that. 00:15:07.062 --> 00:15:09.371 Right, but how creepy could be used for evil? 00:15:11.142 --> 00:15:12.101 I didn't say that. 00:15:12.251 --> 00:15:16.572 It sounds just like, yeah, it was interesting, but overall it was really well done. 00:15:16.631 --> 00:15:18.701 Um, and rip. 00:15:18.792 --> 00:15:21.072 So we have a lot of other stuff in the queue. 00:15:21.304 --> 00:15:38.975 whenever you talk about that, like kind of audio stuff, it reminds me of, um, in 30 rock when they have Tracy like record all of those words on the green screen so that they can have him say any line ever, you know, and he's like, it creeps me out that stuff, but that was really funny. 00:15:39.822 --> 00:15:40.182 Yeah. 00:15:40.211 --> 00:15:43.542 Technology ma'am well, let's get into it. 00:15:43.542 --> 00:15:44.172 Shall we?

00:27:41.461 --> 00:27:42.842 Yeah, a balmy. 00:27:42.842 --> 00:27:44.731 I mean, I wake up and my skin feels Dewey. 00:27:44.731 --> 00:27:49.231 When we have the canopy running, it has an auto mode, but it's still quiet when it's on. 00:27:49.832 --> 00:27:51.061 So I really love that. 00:27:51.092 --> 00:27:57.662 Speaking of air and air quality, this has been on my list all year, but I was waiting for a sale and they have one going right now. 00:27:57.961 --> 00:27:59.971 It's air, doctor, and air purifier. 00:28:00.392 --> 00:28:03.422 I heard about this from a couple of our friends on. 00:28:05.011 --> 00:28:08.162 We will link the, um, link these for you in the show notes. 00:28:08.162 --> 00:28:18.872 But if you have pets, if you have an older home, even if you are adjusting regularly, indoor air is dirty compared to our outdoor environment. 00:28:18.991 --> 00:28:21.332 That's why we always talk about getting outside as much as you can. 00:28:21.571 --> 00:28:23.402 So of course, clean your home regularly. 00:28:23.582 --> 00:28:32.372 If you can dust your sleeping environment, Londa sheets, but I'm really excited to see the difference this makes, because I know it has made such a difference for. 00:28:33.376 --> 00:28:33.646 Friends. 00:28:33.646 --> 00:28:39.646 So yes, it is an investment, but there are different sizes from air doctor and I've heard excellent review. 00:28:39.646 --> 00:28:41.567 So I'm really excited to put this to the test. 00:28:41.567 --> 00:28:43.487 I'm sure I'll be sharing how that goes. 00:28:44.019 --> 00:28:48.150 Yeah, on that note, if you were looking for a different option there, I've heard wonderful things about air. 00:28:48.150 --> 00:28:48.660 Dr. 00:28:49.049 --> 00:29:02.039 Dyson also makes a, I would call it a lower quality air purifier, but I think it's a little, a little bit of a lower price point as well, but you can get the Dyson air purifier and heater. 00:29:02.849 --> 00:29:08.819 And I have been, I have been using it in my garage gym and it has been wonderful. 00:29:08.849 --> 00:29:11.099 And the nicest thing about it is that it's connected to wifi. 00:29:11.130 --> 00:29:11.640 So. 00:29:12.142 --> 00:29:15.711 We tell them how you like to use it to warm up your bells. 00:29:16.484 --> 00:29:18.944 the kettlebells get so cold in the winter. 00:29:19.305 --> 00:29:28.244 So anyways, I leave it pointing towards my bells and I use the app on my phone and I turn it on an hour before I'm going down to train. 00:29:29.115 --> 00:29:34.035 And even on these like 30 degree days, I haven't yet tested it when it's zero degrees out. 00:29:34.035 --> 00:29:37.815 But so far we've had some 30 degrees day, 30 degree days. 00:29:38.809 --> 00:29:45.769 An hour of that Dyson heater power pointing at my kettlebells is enough to warm them wonderfully for my workout. 00:29:45.769 --> 00:29:46.160 So yeah. 00:29:46.190 --> 00:29:46.849 Air Dr. 00:29:46.880 --> 00:29:52.160 Dyson wonderful options for switching up that air. 00:29:53.182 --> 00:29:54.501 but Dyson also has a fan. 00:29:54.501 --> 00:29:56.241 So it's nice to use that when it's too hot. 00:29:56.241 --> 00:30:01.192 I use that in my office and the summer, but, um, we use that in our guest room. 00:30:01.582 --> 00:30:03.201 I know Costco often do deals on it. 00:30:03.201 --> 00:30:07.162 So if not ordering online, my favorite Costco, 00:30:07.184 --> 00:30:07.305 The 00:30:07.342 --> 00:30:08.031 the air doctor. 00:30:09.352 --> 00:30:13.041 Look, name brand air doctor has a couple of filters, which is why it works so well. 00:30:13.041 --> 00:30:22.461 So yes, it is an investment, but this seems to be their best sale of the year and includes a carbon slash VOC, volatile, organic compound filter, and an ultra HEPA filter. 00:30:22.461 --> 00:30:25.251 So maybe we're thinking, oh, my house has a HEPA filter. 00:30:25.251 --> 00:30:27.862 It doesn't do it the same as something like this. 00:30:28.342 --> 00:30:33.862 Um, and I

00:31:40.515 --> 00:31:45.944 What are you doing when you are like cooking something crazy by 00:31:45.951 --> 00:31:49.821 My mom used to get so mad at us growing up when we didn't turn it on, she calls it the blower. 00:31:49.971 --> 00:31:55.461 And I would always just like, I have memories of just hearing her scream from the living room when I'm cooking, like put that blower. 00:31:59.339 --> 00:32:01.829 Yeah, clean up the air as best we can. 00:32:02.279 --> 00:32:07.289 Uh, sometimes I'll go to the gym and start sweating and think, oh, I smell like bacon or beef. 00:32:08.160 --> 00:32:11.099 Have you remember that video video of that toddler? 00:32:11.099 --> 00:32:12.599 It's like, I smell like beef. 00:32:12.630 --> 00:32:13.799 I smell like beef. 00:32:13.829 --> 00:32:14.279 That's 00:32:14.676 --> 00:32:15.366 It's me. 00:32:16.589 --> 00:32:17.309 Yes. 00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:31.950 So speaking of mattresses, another big ticket item that we were buying this whole year was a new mattress ready to replace one, and we are going in on avocado. 00:32:31.980 --> 00:32:36.299 So nontoxic mattress really, really love this quality and is an investment. 00:32:36.869 --> 00:32:39.029 Um, but I got to sleep on one. 00:32:39.029 --> 00:32:40.619 When I went to go visit Adina it was 00:32:40.912 --> 00:32:41.721 Yeah, we have. 00:32:41.751 --> 00:32:44.422 So we have two different nontoxic mattress brands. 00:32:44.422 --> 00:32:46.281 We have avocado, which I really like also. 00:32:46.582 --> 00:32:52.491 And then if you're looking for a slightly lower price point, my green mattress is also a good option. 00:32:52.971 --> 00:33:04.102 And when it comes to your mattress, you know, whenever Diane and I are talking about product safety and lowering your toxic load, we're always going to help you prioritize the things that matter most. 00:33:04.642 --> 00:33:06.172 And the way I like to think about it and. 00:33:07.537 --> 00:33:16.747 Your bed is somewhere that you should be spending a lot of time and it's consistent time where your body is supposed to be detoxing. 00:33:16.747 --> 00:33:23.047 So overnight we do a lot of our detoxing, our body cycles thing, recycles things. 00:33:23.467 --> 00:33:30.997 And so in our sleep environment, if we can keep that a lower toxic load, it's really, really beneficial for our health. 00:33:31.027 --> 00:33:32.676 Not to mention that mattresses. 00:33:33.561 --> 00:33:40.192 Conventional mattresses have a lot of toxic nonsense in them, but it also gets worse over time. 00:33:40.402 --> 00:33:46.821 So the longer you sleep on a mattress, the more those things break down and release into your environment and get, 00:33:47.069 --> 00:33:48.509 That offgassing the Adina was 00:33:48.692 --> 00:33:49.231 yeah. 00:33:49.471 --> 00:33:49.862 So. 00:33:50.692 --> 00:33:51.501 Especially. 00:33:51.501 --> 00:33:53.902 I know people always ask about like nontoxic kids stuff. 00:33:54.352 --> 00:34:02.721 I prioritize for my kids, like the crib, the mattress, the PJ's, the stuff they spend those just straight hours in overnight. 00:34:03.112 --> 00:34:04.971 And it's the same for adults. 00:34:04.971 --> 00:34:07.162 So mattress is a great one. 00:34:07.642 --> 00:34:08.931 It's an investment. 00:34:08.931 --> 00:34:13.192 So I wouldn't just be like, oh, Diane and said this, I got to throw my mattress out the window. 00:34:13.521 --> 00:34:18.231 Um, but if you are ready to budget for a bigger investment, that's a great swap. 00:34:19.769 --> 00:34:20.190 Yeah. 00:34:20.190 --> 00:34:24.389 I mean, we don't take this light, like yeah, you can't just throw out your mattress and get a new one. 00:34:24.389 --> 00:34:25.769 We'd wanted one for a while. 00:34:25.769 --> 00:34:27.599 So saved up for this. 00:34:27.630 --> 00:34:36.389 Something I appreciate about this one is that they screen about avocados, that they screened for 6,500 known and suspected harmful chemicals. 00:34:36.750 --> 00:34:38.190 We last time we got our mattress. 00:34:38.190 --> 00:34:51.690 I remember opening it and the smell there's just that plastic-y chemical smell that we don't want to spend a lot of time around, but they have this, um, their mattresses are all organic construction, certified organic. 00:34:51.960 --> 00:34:56.460 They have

a one-year trial, like many mattresses ordered online are now doing. 00:34:56.489 --> 00:34:56.880 I like that. 00:34:56.880 --> 00:34:59.909 They also have a 25 year warranty, which is really cool. 00:35:00.150 --> 00:35:01.469 So you can try it out. 00:35:01.500 --> 00:35:02.429 I read through all the review. 00:35:03.150 --> 00:35:04.230 They were rave reviews. 00:35:04.260 --> 00:35:07.980 We also like that they are certified B corporation, like beauty counter. 00:35:07.980 --> 00:35:17.849 So we like their commitment to sustainability, sustainable sourcing and practices and to a zero waste certified mattress factory. 00:35:17.849 --> 00:35:23.039 So that's so many just, it's just so thought they put a lot of thought into the creation of this product. 00:35:23.039 --> 00:35:24.809 So I'm really excited to give it a 00:35:24.936 --> 00:35:25.356 Yeah. 00:35:25.436 --> 00:35:25.706 All right. 00:35:25.706 --> 00:35:34.646 Next up also a great nighttime routine option is get yourself some red light so we can do a whole episode on like circadian rhythm. 00:35:35.561 --> 00:35:40.061 Sleep and benefits of red light therapy, but just know it's great for you. 00:35:40.061 --> 00:35:40.992 We don't get enough of it. 00:35:40.992 --> 00:35:44.172 It helps with a lot of the recycling that we were talking about in our body. 00:35:44.532 --> 00:35:49.362 It helps us produce a lot of the things that we need to make energy, which a lot of us are really lacking in. 00:35:49.572 --> 00:35:53.231 So yeah, red light is something that I would highly recommend incorporating into your team. 00:35:53.681 --> 00:35:56.981 And there are brands, the one I wanted to mention here is Gembared. 00:35:57.240 --> 00:36:02.610 They are committed to lowering the price point on really high quality red light devices. 00:36:02.911 --> 00:36:04.740 So I would give them a look. 00:36:04.831 --> 00:36:06.061 Um, I really liked their. 00:36:07.898 --> 00:36:16.179 yeah, I have nothing else candle down, or we have more resources, resources for you in our gyst mini course on the sleep front, moving on. 00:36:16.179 --> 00:36:18.878 But I guess similarly with the red light here, so. 00:36:19.793 --> 00:36:32.393 Saunas, they look goofy and ideally, I know Neil wants a traditional sauna, but until we can get one of those, I was eyeing therasage, they're OSI, Ferris age. 00:36:32.423 --> 00:36:33.353 We're going to go with that. 00:36:34.014 --> 00:36:36.204 Your head sticks out of this portable 00:36:36.300 --> 00:36:37.891 It's like a little zip up tent. 00:36:38.934 --> 00:36:39.443 yeah. 00:36:39.443 --> 00:36:43.103 And they come with some, or they come with an organic wooden stool. 00:36:43.103 --> 00:36:46.733 I think there are some options that have a red light that come and come with a bundle. 00:36:47.634 --> 00:36:54.054 And I don't know that we'll be getting that this year, but I see that they have some pretty deep discounts on their portable saunas. 00:36:54.083 --> 00:37:01.494 If you want to do a, uh, infrared option, finally, this one is pretty unbrand over here. 00:37:01.494 --> 00:37:02.844 I think I've mentioned it before. 00:37:02.994 --> 00:37:05.213 Their branding is hilarious. 00:37:05.244 --> 00:37:07.614 It's tushie bidet attachment. 00:37:07.853 --> 00:37:10.764 So if you can't get a day, everyone needs to have a clean ass. 00:37:10.905 --> 00:37:11.445 Yes. 00:37:11.505 --> 00:37:21.255 If you add it to your toilet, if you're the kind of friend who can gift your friend, a clean asshole for the holidays, go ahead and do that. 00:37:22.869 --> 00:37:23.318 yes. 00:37:23.358 --> 00:37:27.998 Just use it be careful when you use it because the spray is aggressive. 00:37:28.485 --> 00:37:29.085 There's a learning 00:37:29.139 --> 00:37:29.798 That's probably might come 00:37:29.835 --> 00:37:30.405 There's a learning 00:37:30.608 --> 00:37:30.938 Yeah. 00:37:30.969 --> 00:37:32.318 So be careful there. 00:37:32.318 --> 00:37:33.338 Branding's hilarious. 00:37:33.338 --> 00:37:34.248 tushie bidet. 00:37:34.268 --> 00:37:34.869 We like it. 00:37:34.869 --> 00:37:35.648 We love it. 00:37:36.548 --> 00:37:42.639 Now it's moving to some tasty things, kitchen stuff, also on brand here. 00:37:44.048 --> 00:37:48.699 So cookware, this is something that people as our clients ask us about a lot. 00:37:48.699 --> 00:37:51.878 I was just talking on a root cause reset call about this. 00:37:52.329 --> 00:37:59.889 But if you are able to upgrade your cookware, you don't need a whole big fancy set if you want one go for it. 00:38:00.219 --> 00:38:10.239 But I think a Dutch oven, something like a 12 inch skillet, maybe a medium sized sauce panel, or even like a 12 inch sauce pan or skillet can really do a 00:38:10.411 --> 00:38:11.431 Yeah, those are my three. 00:38:11.431 --> 00:38:13.170 Those are the three pans I use all the time. 00:38:13.170 --> 00:38:16.726 It's just like, Pots and

lifetime. 00:38:37.284 --> 00:38:40.043 They are an investment piece, but they last forever. 00:38:41.123 --> 00:38:45.893 The enamel cast iron is nice if you want a non-stick, but also really love stainless steel. 00:38:45.893 --> 00:38:49.884 Actually, a few years ago, I asked me all for all clad stainless steel pans. 00:38:49.884 --> 00:38:54.353 So that's another excellent brand that you

00:42:35.635 it used to be a big restaurant cooking tool, and then it became more for the home cook. 00:42:35.695 --> 00:42:45.115 And if you don't have a CV yet, if you've been intimidated by it, it's really so easy to learn and just makes a consistently, perfectly cooked protein. 00:42:45.235 --> 00:42:46.646 It's pretty hard to mess it up. 00:42:47.778 --> 00:42:48.739 it's a lot of math. 00:42:48.858 --> 00:42:57.858 If you have not heard of this and we'll take our steak out of it and sear it on the stove or on the grill, whatever, or yeah, you can do so many things with it.
