Temporada 1
Is 13 a lucky or unlucky number? Bootie and Bossy discuss various lore about the number 13 and discover that the overriding message is "be inclusive!" You can definitely do that with Ina Garten's pork posole recipe, which is sure to feed a hungry and diverse crowd. As always, family stories are shared (Hi Mom!) and updates on our knitting projects.

In this episode, Bootie and Bossy have three book recommendations. First, we discuss the cookbook Community by Hetty McKinnon. She approaches salads like a good novel: with tantalizing characters and delicious plot twists. She has excellent advise for what to put in your larder so that you're ready when 5PM rolls around to put together something nutritious and satisfying. In fact, it's so satisfying that you might not even mind that it's vegetarian! Next, we discuss Knitted Animal Friends by Louise Crowther. Bossy gave this book to Bootie for her birthday and we got to see one of the animals in person at All Wound Up yarn store in Edmonds (see the video below for a tour of the store). Finally, we discuss the book Knitting the National Parks by Nancy Bates. All Wound Up features kits for these wonderful park inspired hats. Check out the Show Notes at Bootieandbossy.com
Sometimes things don't go as planned. Bootie and Bossy were very excited about all the excellent adventures they had planned for Bossy's visit to Washington. Three days in, our Mom fell and fractured her pelvis. Spending time at the hospital was definitely not what any of us had in mind, most especially Mom, but we did manage to salvage what we could and were glad just to be spending time together. We love you Mom and we wish you a very speedy recovery so you can enjoy our cocktail, the Blackberry Ginger Rye for this episode!! Show notes can be found at Bootieandbossy.com
Bootie presents a delicious jell-o recipe similar to one from her childhood. Bootie and Bossy reminisce about April Fool's jokes of the past and discuss ideas for this year. Vintage craft projects that need a come back, such as toilet paper covers and beer can hats are presented. Show notes can be found at Bootieandbossy.com
For this episode, Bootie and Bossy interviewed Michelle Obama's...book, The Light We Carry The entire first chapter is devoted to knitting and how learning to knit helped Michelle get through the pandemic. Michelle speaks openly and honestly about parenting (we really appreciated her honestly about the less than stellar parenting moments), marriage, overcoming fear, and remaining positive during the most trying of times. Even if we wouldn't be invited to Michelle's "retreats" with no alcohol, no dessert and lots of rigorous exercise, we still love you, Michelle! The recipe for this episode is a classic, just like Michelle: Chicken Marbella.
Bootie and Bossy had the honor of interviewing Layla Pujol, the creator of Laylita.com, an Ecuadorian food blog and one of the contributors to the cookbook Yo Cocino Latino. Bootie has had the pleasure of tasting many of Layla's dishes and they are all wonderful. You can find more information by checking out the Show Notes at Bootieandbossy.com
This is the episode where pretty much everyone gets thrown under the bus! Our amazing mom shares her wonderful recipe for brownies, along with many family stories of "camouflage and subterfuge." We have updates on the Knitalong Bootie is doing with Marie Greene and Bossy's Arpeggio poncho.
In this episode, we share our tried and true recipe for chili, along with our childhood memories of eating it. We present our (insert trumpet sound here) January knitting projects.
In this episode, we discuss the merits of homemade marshmallows. Who knew this delicious treat was so easy to make and so much better than store bought? In terms of knitting, we take a look at projects we completed for the holidays and projects we are making in the new year.
In this episode, we have pumpkin bread, a remembrance of Pussy hats past, hats for the present, and hats to work up to in the future, such as brioche (knitting, not bread). For more information , check out our website: bootieandbossy.com
