Ep. 29: Sourdough and Hiking Woes

We're taking a hike this month and heading north. Torey's talking fashion on the trails to the gold rush, and Steph's talking about the science of sourdough. We both try our hand at an honest-to-goodness sourdough starter, with...surprising success, actually.

Ep. 34: Hello to the Future

Yes, friends, it's true: the time has come for us to leave you. We've spent the last three years in a tumult of food highs (wartime cake!), fashion lows (remember that time I tried to describe how to tie an ascot?), and vice versa (remember that time Steph made a totally gorgeous outfit from a thrifted suit? Legendary.). Now, for our final bow, we're taking a trip back to our first failure, our worst failure, our gloopiest, ickiest, saddest failure: vegetarian jello. For what better way to say goodbye to you, our lovely listeners, than to make good on a three-year-old promise to try agar agar again? This month, we brave our fears and face our old foe, while talking '60s jello and the space-age fashion of the future. We said it all in the episode, but it bears repeating: thank you so much for listening. We've loved making this show. We hope hearing us fumble our way through food and fashion has made you as happy as it has made us. Feel free to find us outside of

Ep. 4: Nogsters

Happy holidays & happy new year to all! To accommodate our busy holiday schedules we have a mixed-up informal episode for you today. We’re drinking some very boozey homemade eggnog and wearing our ugliest Christmas sweaters—all of which makes for a very hospitable environment for our *special guests*! Yes, The Boys are on air with us today, reacting to our creations live. We also entertain with the riotous rum-soaked history of eggnog and an original poem by Steph (!!!) on the origins of ugly Christmas sweater parties. Be sure to listen to the end for extra holiday cheer! Listen: If you cannot see the audio controls, your browser does not support the audio element Enjoy!

Ep. 17: Eaton's All the Butter Tarts

Are you in the club? The butter tart club? The one that every Canadian (or at least Ontarian) is automatically born into? Yes, today we're talking about our favourite and most controversial pastry. Raisins? Nuts? Plain? Runny/firm? What's the deal? Does the first known recorded butter tart recipe answer any of these questions? Inspired by that very first recipe, we're also talking about another one-time Canadian/Ontarian behemoth: Eaton's! Specifically, Eaton's catalogues. Torey could read those things for days. What we're obsessed with in history: Torey: BBC's A Stitch in Time series (not available in Canada, but you can find full episodes on YouTube ) Steph: The Fabric Of Our Land: Salish Weaving - a workshop at the Museum of Anthropology led by Chief Janice George and Buddy Joseph. Steph attended in February and Torey is trying VERY hard not to get jealous. Thanks for listening! Find us online: Instagram @fashionablyateshow Facebook and
