New(ish) format incoming!

In the final full episode of Season 2, we decided to focus on food writer and cookbook machine, Diana Henry. It's another 2-for-1 special, with Victoria cooking from From the Oven to the Table and Hannah taking the fuzzy wuzzy How to Eat a Peach. As usual, it's not just about the recipes, as we range from the dating life of Girls Aloud alumni to TikTok trends - and as ever, we love you even more for sticking with us through it all!

We've been gone for a little while, but we haven't forgotten how to go off on tangents, so you can look forward to discussions ranging from our prospective applications for Love Island to cabbage tattoos. We do also talk about Home Food, promise!
