The Popular Podcast #307: Magick Food

It was our best dinner party yet. Our crowning glory. They get better every time. Betty gave us the idea. She wanted to try cooking with pumpkin. And she wanted to try making ravioli from scratch. Betty expertly banged out enough little stuffed delights for all six dinner party attendees while Jessica provided the dough-babies.

Dough babies are bite-size pizza dough bits that we bake, then smother in olive oil. Better than restaurant food, according to Kevin. I agree. The pizza dough was left over from a quadruple batch we made a couple weeks ago. We meant to make pizzas, but ended up experimenting with dough in different forms. Dough babies were born.

I made the pumpkin pie from scratch the day before. Real, baked pumpkin. Real crust. All vegan. All made with love. All superb. Yes, we put love in our food. Yes, we focus on feeling good while we make it. That’s why each dinner party is better than the next. That is why 6 different people can come together around an awkward kitchen bar and have the best four hours of their lives enjoying 5 courses of handmade, from-scratch vegan food. Thank you, Stephen, for sponsoring this episode, and for participating in our dinner parties. Thank you, Betty, for the inspiration to fulfill my childhood dream of baking a real pumpkin pie from scratch. Thank you, Universe! Thank you, Jessica! Thank you, everyone! I love you!
