Speaker 1: Just oh my god, slow cookers.
Speaker 6: It was the best, and on slow, not on high.
Speaker 6: In fact, the last half hour cranked her up to
Speaker 6: high to thick.

Speaker 6: It's like the tomato just massages into the right.
Speaker 2: There's some kind of overnight marinading, deepening and melding.
Speaker 1: That goes on with my rule of thumb.
Speaker 2: Anything this Italian, it's always, no matter how good it is,
Speaker 2: better the next day.
Speaker 6: Is it the tomato and the acid in the tomato
Speaker 6: breaks something down.
Speaker 5: The longer that it's sets, you might be.
Speaker 2: In that like even like a bad pizza, give it
Speaker 2: a day, leave that thing overnight. Suddenly bad can go

Speaker 12: So the cat stayed with her for quite some time
Speaker 12: until eventually a neighbor, a friend of my mum's, came
Speaker 12: around to drop something off. Would normally just drop it
Speaker 12: off and go, but the cat left my mum at
Speaker 12: this point to come and fetch the neighbor. She came
Speaker 12: up the hallway and would kept nailing at her and
Speaker 12: mowing at her, and then turning around and looking back
Speaker 12: and say, come on, follow me, follow me, until the
Speaker 12: neighbor went, well, this is really weird. I'll follow the
Speaker 12: cat and found my mum and was able to help her.
