Ep. 33: Obsessions: Lace Knits and Hazelnuts


Torey's first lace-adjacent knitting

We're going off-script this month and treating ourselves to a whole episode about our current obsessions. No rhyme, no reason, no era - just really cool history.

Torey's facing her fears and diving into an obsession with lace knitting (and/or knitted lace, depending on who you're talking to). Meanwhile, Steph is all in on hazelnuts, and we both make some fabulous nutty dishes.

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.

Ep. 28: Deer Catharine

This month we're going further back than this podcast has gone before: decades before Mrs Beeton, there was Catharine Parr Traill, a woman whose letters we study and whose symbolism we have a hard time coming to grips with. To everyone's surprise, our fashion segment this month actually covers fashion: we're looking at the late Regency period and the relatively loose dresses that came with it. In another podcast first, we're also taking a stab at some meaty dishes. Both Torey and Steph fry up some venison steaks, and we talk about the history and ethics of game meat in Canada. Less controversially, we also serve up some cranberry sauce and tarts, to mixed reviews. What we're obsessed with in history Steph : An old favourite: Lucy Worsely, an English historian and author, and two of her books:  Jane Austen at Home: A Biography and Queen Victoria: Twenty-Four Days that Changed Her Life . Get in that library queue, these books are going fast. Torey : A new ...
