15 Kitchen Skills to Master (Maybe)

09/10/19 • 40 min

In this episode of There are Lots of Things, April and Maddie discuss what Buzzfeed deems "15 Kitchen Skills to Master by the Time You're Thirty," which is, we realize, a very specific and seemingly arbitrary number of kitchen skills. Buzzfeed has a lot on their plate right now so we'll give them a pass. (A lot on their plate, get it? Plates.)

Also on the table for discussion: Maddie and April almost break up over pasta water, April describes how she makes special cupcakes for her friends, and Maddie pulls you onto her knee for kitchen mishap story time.
