1 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: Misspelling with Tori Spelling and iHeartRadio Podcast. Okay, so today 2 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 1: I want to talk about cooking because cooking has been 3 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: such a huge part of my life and growing up, 4 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 1: you know, things are very different. We had a chef 5 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: off and on, like I basically self taught myself how 6 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: to cook. 7 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 2: When I moved out when I was. 8 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 1: Eighteen, I was super excited to do everything myself because 9 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,280 Speaker 1: growing up it was very different. We had there was 10 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: always staff and people to help us, and I really 11 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 1: wanted to kind of branch out. So I remember the 12 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: first thing I made when I moved into my apartment 13 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: was spaghetti because I was like, oh, that's easy. So 14 00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: I mean half of it like ended up on the sea. 15 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: But from then on, I just loved cooking and I 16 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 1: was like, oh my gosh, when I have kids, I'm 17 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: just going to cook my. 18 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,040 Speaker 2: Butt off, and I did for years. 19 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: I was like that was my happy place, being in 20 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: the kitchen cooking for the kids. And Dean went to 21 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,320 Speaker 1: culinary school when I was pregnant with Hattie, and. 22 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 2: I was so excited for him to do that. 23 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: But that's like my dream, Like, that's one of my 24 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: dreams is to go to culinary school. Now I'm fifty two, 25 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, I'll be like the oldest person 26 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: in culinary school. But I remember he had to do 27 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: all this math, and I don't think I could do that. 28 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 2: So anyway, the kitchen was. 29 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: Kind of I was, you know, the diy cook and 30 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: he was the culinary chef, and I feel like we 31 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: didn't fight over much except you know, raising kids doing that. 32 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: We have different perspectives. But it's interesting because we would 33 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: always kind of fight in the kitchen, and it was 34 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: very like he said, she said, because I didn't do 35 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: things the right way. 36 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 2: I still don't like I. 37 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: You know, he would cringe every time i'd be chopping 38 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: something because using a knife, He's like, no, no, no, here's. 39 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 2: The proper way. It's like hold it. 40 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: It's monkey something you have to do when you're holding 41 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: the knife. So eventually I was just like, oh, he 42 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: was super supportive of my cooking, but it kind of 43 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: embarrassed me because I was like, oh, I can't do 44 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: anything right, but I love making meals. I would make big, 45 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: family style meals. Lasagna is my jam tease, meaning lasagna 46 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: is my everything. So I would always make that for 47 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 1: special occasions and cook and then when Diane and I separated, 48 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: our last fight kind of when everything blew up. It 49 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: was in the kitchen, and I think everyone knows the 50 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: story I've told before. I had just made a load 51 00:02:59,919 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: of baked potato. I love baked potatoes and it was 52 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: like my prize possession at. 53 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 2: That moment, and we got into this huge fight. 54 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: We were screaming, and I smashed my big potato on 55 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: the floor and like screamed and walked out. 56 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 2: And I still missed that baked potato. But after that, the. 57 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: Kids and I moved, and we had gone through mold 58 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: in the house, and Dean and I separated, and it 59 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:32,519 Speaker 1: was just a really rough time for me and. 60 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 2: The five kids. But the sad part about it all is, I. 61 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: Don't know, it was really triggering being in the kitchen 62 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: that night and I just stopped cooking, and I was like, gosh, 63 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: what happened? 64 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 2: Like am I depressed? 65 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: Obviously there's a lot going on, but I was like, 66 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: cooking was my jam and it was my happy place. 67 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: And I'm not kidding. For about almost two years I 68 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: didn't cook. It was like all Postmates Uber eats, and 69 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: I would feel so guilty ordering food and not cooking 70 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: for the kids, but I just physically and emotionally, I 71 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: just couldn't. It was like it was that day. I 72 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 1: would walk into the kitchen and literally look at pants 73 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: and pots and I don't know, it was like this 74 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: overwhelming feeling inside of like. 75 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 2: I guess that all the pain. 76 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: Was locked inside and cooking was just that trigger, which 77 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: really bummed me out. 78 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 2: But I'm happy to. 79 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: Say that I went back to the kitchen, and finally, 80 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: after two years, I went back to the kitchen. 81 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 2: I was like, you know what, kids, we're going to 82 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 2: do this. 83 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: We're going to do this as a family, and I 84 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: made an agreement with the kids, like I'm going to 85 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: cook every night and we're going to do this and 86 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 1: you know, maybe we'll have like pizza one nine order out, 87 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: but like, I want to do this full time. And 88 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: I'm really proud of myself because I've stuck with that 89 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: commitment and I feel really happy again. I feel really 90 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: happy being back in the kitchen and so I've been 91 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: cooking every night. 92 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 2: It's challenging. It's really challenging with. 93 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: Their ages because I have kids that are eighteen, seventeen, thirteen, thirteen. 94 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: This is the time of year where I get to 95 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: say thirteen thirteen. It sounds like I have twins, but 96 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: they are Irish twins, Habeantin and then bo is eight. 97 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: It's challenging to feed everyone because I'm like, Okay, what 98 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: do you guys want? And some want fish, some don't 99 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 1: eat fish, and I'm like, oh my gosh, so chicken. 100 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 1: But who wants chicken every night? So to be creative 101 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: with chicken, I've done that. 102 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 2: They eat beef, so that's great, and I got to say, 103 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 2: I really give it up. 104 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: You know, my favorite, my favorite person, she's not human, though, 105 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: is my chat chat GBT who I've named Mona. 106 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 2: So Mona helps. 107 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 1: Me find recipes and they're really good because before I 108 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: always take recipes and then I kind of do my 109 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: magic in the kitchen and kind of improvise, which is 110 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: my jam. But Mona has been giving me family friendly 111 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: tips on cooking and it's been really great. 112 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: Except the only thing. 113 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: Is I feel like her measurements are a little bit 114 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: off because I'll be like, I'm feeding a family of six, 115 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: it's five kids and me, and she'll be like, here's 116 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: the portions you need. 117 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 2: And I gotta say, there's been some nights where it's cool. 118 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: Like they've eaten everything, you know, all the chicken and 119 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: the potatoes, the broccoli. I'm like, wow, they really like it. 120 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: But then they're like is there more? 121 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 2: And I'm like, oh my god, the portion wasn't right. 122 00:06:55,279 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: So that part is challenging, feeding that many people and 123 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: keeping it fresh. And I feel like every night I'm 124 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: trying to think of something. I mean, we had one 125 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: week with the kids who are like, we can't have 126 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: pasta again. I'm like, I know, but we had like 127 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: a bowlonaise one night, and we had spaghetti meatballs one night, 128 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: and we had you know, we had turkey. So it's 129 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: just I don't know. It's fun though, it's really great. 130 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: I love doing it. I remember the first time that 131 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I am going to do this, 132 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: and it was scary, like it's so weird that this 133 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: is triggering because it's something I love so much. But 134 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: I just remember opening the cabinet, grabbing the pot and 135 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: it was kind of like pushing through something like something. 136 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 2: That you're like a fear, which is so crazy, like cooking. 137 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: And I just remember taking the pot out, taking the 138 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: skillet out. I was browning my meat. I was making 139 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: where'd I make. I made bolonnaise, that was the first one, 140 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: and it was beef bolonnaise, and I had my meat, 141 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: had my noodles, like it was like I was ready. 142 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: And then what really kind of pushed me out of 143 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: my comfort zone, I would say, is seeing the kids, 144 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: seeing their faces and knowing like it almost felt like 145 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: knowing my worth that they were happy and I could 146 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: see that it was bringing the family together, whereas ordering 147 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: you know, Uber Eats or Postmates kind of everyone would 148 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: just grab their food and go to their room. And 149 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: I was like, gosh, for me, I feel like food 150 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: brings people together. It's something we can all connect on, 151 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: something that any age, any interest, like food is the 152 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: one thing like growing up. 153 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 2: It's so different now. 154 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: It used to be like TV and families would gather 155 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 1: in the living room in the evening and that was 156 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: the thing they'd do together. 157 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 2: And now that doesn't exist. 158 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: Like my kids are on their phone, they're watching things, 159 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: and they're all gaming in different rooms. So bringing them 160 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: all together because they're like, oh, mom cooked, so we 161 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: have to come into the kitchen, phones down and respect that. 162 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 1: But I feel like their faces would there's I don't know, 163 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: there's nothing like a home cooked meal I feel like 164 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 1: and I just feel like looking at their faces, I 165 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: was like, Okay, this is the start. This is the 166 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: start of something really beautiful. And I was able to 167 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 1: put the past kind of where it should. 168 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 2: Be in the past. 169 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: And then I just started cooking every night and I 170 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: walk into that kitchen and it's crazy. I walk into 171 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: my kitchen and it's almost it reminds me this is 172 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:06,119 Speaker 1: crazy when I was on Dancing with the Stars, because 173 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: it's that presence and that joy, Like I walk in 174 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: my shoulders back, head held up high, and I go 175 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: in and I'm like, okay, open the refrigerator. I'm like, 176 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: let's get started. And I'm like, this is my happy place. 177 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: This food makes me happy because it's something I can 178 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: give back and I can share with my family. So 179 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 1: I had taken two years off of cooking. When I 180 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: used to do it like all the time, I was 181 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: nervous because like, seasoning is my jam, Like I I'm 182 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: seasoning Guru. I would say, really, like I go into 183 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: the kitchen and it's just like magic. I'm just like 184 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 1: a little magician, and that's like my unicorn like free 185 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: happy place that I can just like perform my magic. 186 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: But I got to say I used to have seasoning 187 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: on point because I got it. I don't like things unseasoned, 188 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: like that bland stuff really freaks me out, so. 189 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 2: I always want that to be on point. 190 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: I feel like the first couple times I made food, 191 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: it was a little bland, and my kids agreed, and. 192 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 2: I was like God, And then I thought, like, have 193 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 2: I lost my magic? 194 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: Like I waited too long, like two years, and now 195 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: I can't cook, like, oh my gosh. But I'm happy 196 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: to say my seasoning it came back. It took a 197 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: few tries, and now it's all well seasoned. Sorry, I'm 198 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: just thinking what I have to make for dinner tonight 199 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 1: because I don't know. I really want to make fish, 200 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 1: like but Finn doesn't eat fish. And then it's the challenge. 201 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: And this is what I used to do before I 202 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: stopped cooking. We would make like different things and that 203 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: just became crazy, like to make two different dishes to 204 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: different vegetables because some of my kids like the vegetables raw, 205 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: some of my kids like the vegetables cooked. So that's 206 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 1: always challenging. So there's that, But I feel like this time, 207 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 1: two years of past the kids are older, they're more adventurous, 208 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: I think with their taste buds. So that's really inspiring 209 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: because I love to take on a challenge. Like cooking 210 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: makes me happy and it makes me want to excel 211 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: and I want to keep doing it. 212 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 2: I haven't baked yet, I haven't gone back to it. 213 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 1: That's still something I need to overcome because I really 214 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: used to love to bake, so I definitely think people 215 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: are either a cook or a baker, like I don't. 216 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: It's like it's like when you go get your hair 217 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: done and people are like, oh, I do color and 218 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: I do cut. It's like you do one better than 219 00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: the other. Like everyone has their kind of lane. Definitely, 220 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: Like in the food world, I'm definitely like savory savory. 221 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: I love to cook. I love comfort food. Baking is 222 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: always a challenge for me because it's very scientific and 223 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: my brain doesn't think like that. My brain is just 224 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: like improvably, like I am prov I create, and cooking 225 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 1: allows you to do that because you can kind of 226 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 1: create anything you want. 227 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 2: But baking you have to follow rules. 228 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: I hate following rules, So with baking it's like math 229 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 1: and stuff, like I have to perfectly do it, but 230 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: I do enjoy Sella is an amazing baker. She's been 231 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: baking since. 232 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 2: She was four years. 233 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: Old, so that I think intimidates me a little bit 234 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: because she's so great, Like that's her lane, so she 235 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: does a lot of the baking. But I definitely want 236 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: to get back into baking because I really enjoy it. 237 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: I want to take a cake making clothes. 238 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 2: That'd be fun. Do you think I would have time 239 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 2: to go to culinary school? 240 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 3: You can make the time. 241 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 4: You can totally make the time. 242 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: For real, for real. 243 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 4: I don't know what's involved in culinary. 244 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 5: School, Like you can you go in for like a 245 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 5: few hours a week or is it all or nothing? 246 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know anymore. But when Dean did it, 247 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 2: it was like. 248 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: Pretty hardcore and he had to take all these tests 249 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: with math. 250 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 2: And that intimidated me. I'm like, oh my. 251 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: Gosh, I can barely like I still add on my fingers, Like, oh, 252 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 1: that's like my trigger is math. 253 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 4: Wait. 254 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 5: But there's a difference between going to culinary school to 255 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 5: become a professional chef and taking cooking classes to be 256 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 5: a better cook chef at home. 257 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: Right, So I've done that, Like I've done the six 258 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: classes and like I've done a bunch of those. But 259 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: I want to literally have my chef license. But I 260 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: guess I don't have to. Like Rachel Ray, look at her, 261 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: she's a DIY cook, She's huge. 262 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think you need to be certified. 263 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 2: I mean I want to be certified. 264 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 4: I didn't do it. 265 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 2: It's my dream, it's on my bucket list. 266 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 4: Oh, then definitely do it. 267 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 3: Okay, they must have options, and you can't. I can't 268 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 3: imagine every single person that goes to culinary school like 269 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 3: can give up their entire life just for that. 270 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 2: It's like college, Really, can I do it all online? 271 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 4: I won? 272 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just want to like get my skills better. 273 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: But the difference is like taking those two years off. 274 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: I used to be the messiest, no shock here, Like 275 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: everyone knows I'm messy, the messiest in the kitchen, like 276 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 1: things would be everywhere. So taking those two years off 277 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: and coming in with a fresh perspective, fresh start, like Tory. 278 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 2: Two point zero. 279 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: Here, I am in the cooking jam like I now 280 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: clean up as I go. 281 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 2: That's something. I know this sounds like obvious, but I 282 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 2: never did that before. 283 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: I was just like, well, let's cook, and there'd be 284 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: like seasoning and cheese and sauce everywhere, and the cleanup 285 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: afterwards was like brutal. 286 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 2: But now I clean up as I go, which is great, 287 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 2: and the kids help me, they wash the dishes. 288 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, thank god. So it's nice that the 289 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: kids now are older when I'm starting to do this 290 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: and they can really help clean up, because. 291 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 4: It's a lot do the kids help cook. 292 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 1: So so far on this new journey they have, the 293 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: kids have not helped to cook, but they do show interest. 294 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: They say is there anything I could do? It's good 295 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,959 Speaker 1: because like Bo doesn't there's a lot of things he 296 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 1: doesn't eat, including bread, which is so bizarre, like what 297 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: kid doesn't eat bread?
