She's co-author of “Kitchens of Hope: Immigrants Share Stories of Resilience and Recipes from Home.” She is also author of “Come One, Come All: Easy Entertaining with Seasonal Menus” and co-author of “The Ultimate Minnesota Cookie Book.” Gustavo Romero is co-owner with his wife Kate of Nixta, a tortilleria in northeast Minneapolis where they make tortillas using traditional methods and heirloom corn. They expanded next door to open the restaurant, Oro by Nixta, which was a finalist for a James Beard award and named one of the 20 Best New Restaurants of 2024 by Bon Appetit.

Hello!On this classic episode from the archives of The Delicious Legacy I decided to include some ten minute of extra content from my interview with Farrell and I have remastered the audio as it was a bit dodgy the last time round. Hope it's more pleasant and easier to listen now!I'm very excited about this episode! Farrell Monaco is a culinary & experimental archaeologist, and bread-baking addict! Especially of the ancient Greco-Roman variety...So what better person to chat about the ancient cuisine? And it's a very thought-provoking and thoughtful. Who were the people (and the animals!) who did the hard work?Currently in California -where she was when we spoke online- but mostly researching in Pompeii, Herculaneum and Ostia about ancient Greco-Roman breadways.More info on bread from Pompeii by Farrell Monaco:https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20230629-adoreum-the-newly-discovered-flatbread-fresco-of-pompeiihttps://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20230406-arculata-the-bread-that-survived-pompeiiApuleius and The Golden Ass:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Golden_AssEtruscan Tarquinian Tombs:https://tarquiniaturismo.com/tomb-of-the-triclinium/?lang=en Farrell's website and blog:https://tavolamediterranea.com/Music by Pavlos KapralosEnjoy!Thom & The Delicious LegacySupport the podcast on Ko-Fi and Patreon for ad-free episodes! https://ko-fi.com/thedeliciouslegacypodcasthttps://www.patreon.com/c/thedeliciouslegacySupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-delicious-legacy.

Picture two spaces. In one, a field kitchen bubbles over with life. Under a makeshift tent, pots clatter, onions hiss on a portable hot plate, and someone's calling out, “We need more rice!” A neighbor who's just lost everything ladles soup for another who's just walked miles through mud.In the second space, a yoga studio, breath slows, shoulders drop, the air smells faintly of lavender, bodies move in a quiet synchronicity, finding flow after a day that was herky jerky at best.Some people can build both kinds of spaces.I've always been fascinated by what it takes to steady yourself when the world around you is in chaos. My guest today, Fiona Donovan, Vice President of Response Administration for World Central Kitchen, has built her career as a student of that very question.WCK, a nonprofit founded by chef José Andrés, is famous for being first to the frontlines in times of crisis–hurricanes, wildfires, earthquakes, war zones–anywhere people are hungry and hurting. Their teams set up field kitchens that serve fresh, hot meals with dignity and heart.Fiona leads those teams. She oversees global relief operations, coordinating thousands of volunteers, local chefs, and community partners to deliver nourishing food to people quickly.Before joining WCK, she worked in international development and taught in the Peace Corps. She knows what it means to be in the field, boots muddy, adrenaline high, trying to make things better fast.In our conversation, Fiona and I trace the thread between field kitchens and yoga studios, between cooking for hundreds and centering yourself for one slow breath. We talk about how to lead with listening, how to design trust before structure, and how to tell when your body's in reactive mode versus responsive mode. And maybe most beautifully, how to come down from long seasons of urgency without losing your purpose.Fiona's story is what it looks like when compassion gets operationalized. So take a breath, soften your shoulders, and maybe imagine the smell of something delicious cooking.Listen to the full episode to hear:The practices and hobbies that Fiona has cultivated to ground herself as she transitions out of the fieldHow the work of creating welcoming, safe spaces at WCK has translated into how Fiona approaches teaching yogaWhy it's so important for WCK to partner closely with communities when they're responding to a disasterHow Fiona approaches being responsive instead of reactive, for herself and her teams, even under immense pressureHow WCK empowers its field leaders to make decisions during a crisis without getting hung up by perfectionismA simple, shared practice of what we're currently grateful forLearn more about Fiona Donovan:World Central KitchenLearn more about Valerie Black:The Change AgencyBecoming Power NewsletterCoachingResources:The Great Work of Your Life: A Guide for the Journey to Your True Calling, Stephen Cope

This week on GMH Hotels, Sarah Dandashy and Steve Turk explore four stories that capture the shifting landscape of hospitality and travel. They begin with Accor's newest luxury soft brand, created to attract independent hotel owners seeking the reach of a global chain while maintaining local character. Next, they look at how hotels are turning to AI tools and smaller-plate strategies to cut food waste and reduce emissions — proving that sustainability and profitability can go hand in hand. Sarah and Steve then dive into Expedia Group's growing B2B momentum as its consumer business steadies, a strategic pivot that's redefining how hotels leverage partnerships and distribution. Finally, they discuss how ongoing air travel disruptions are driving a surge in rail and bus bookings, reshaping traveler habits, and opening new opportunities for hotels near secondary markets and transport hubs. From brand expansion and AI innovation to distribution power plays and multimodal demand, this episode covers the full scope of where hospitality is headed next.

In this very powerful episode of the Walk-In Talk Podcast, host Carl Fiadini sits down with Chef Janine Pezarro and Chef Brett Wright to explore what resilience truly looks like behind the kitchen doors.Janine opens up for the first time about the murder of her family, the trauma that followed, and how she transformed that pain into purpose — from Michelin-level pastry kitchens to the founding of The Warrior's Path, a course helping men reconnect with courage and emotional strength.Brett shares his own transformation — escaping gang life, finding salvation in cooking, and building Bib Gourmand recipient, Palm Beach Meats, and the only Kobe-certified operations in the U.S. into a budget friendly experience. His leadership philosophy centers on empathy, equality, and giving his team the opportunities he never had.It's raw, vulnerable, and inspiring — proof that food can be the bridge between survival and strength.

Yet another ghost kitchen operator appears to be shrinking. An investment gadfly is speaking out against Cracker Barrel. And here's why technological redundancies just may be a good thing.

This week's spooky season offering dives past the whole haunted house experience to go deeper. What if the haunting was more specific? An attic or cellar is well known trope, but what about a playground? A nursery? A clock or a mirror? What do those things say about the state of the main character's mind in storytelling? And what exactly is the quiet terror of the mundane more effective than dripping gore and howling monsters? Jules and Madeleine tackle these questions and more.   On the slab this week: Rebekah - Daphne du Maurier, The Yellow Wallpaper - Charlotte Perkins Gilman, The Scald Crow - Grace Daly and many more

In this episode of Straight To The Source, we’re joined by two culinary heavyweights: Adrian Richardson, TV chef and restaurateur behind La Luna and Good Chef Bad Chef, and Markus Werner, Culinary Director at Delaware North, overseeing stadiums and resorts across Australia.

They talk about: The realities of kitchen culture then and now. What has changed and what hasn’t How to spot and nurture the next generation of great chefs The balance between fine dining precision and stadium-scale catering What keeps these bigger-than-life chefs inspired outside the kitchen, from hunting to motorbikes to salami-making Their most memorable food moments (including Adrian’s unforgettable nonna’s ravioli) A lively, heartfelt, and often hilarious conversation about passion, friendship, and what it truly means to dedicate your life to food.

What began as an online magazine with product recommendations grew into FabFitFun, a membership that millions of women see as a quarterly act of self-care.In this episode with Lindsay Pinchuk, Katie shares how a 24-hour sellout of the very first test box set the stage for everything that followed: full-size products, full customization, members-only sales, and a thriving community where feedback shapes each season. Storytelling still drives it all, making every product feel personal rather than transactional.She also explains how FabFitFun became a launchpad for brands, using influencers and editorial reach to turn products, like OUAI's leave-in conditioner, into bestsellers. Flexibility is key—members can swap items or even entire boxes—building trust with every shipment.Katie doesn't shy away from the hard parts either, from a million-unit product recall to the operational lessons that came out of it.

Welcome back to Home Design Chat with Nancy I am your host Nancy Hugo. One of the most popular questions I hear as a kitchen designer is “What are the trends for the new year?”  Kitchens are especially prone to new trends and homeowners typically want the latest and greatest gadgets and to increase their resale value. We know that generally speaking the kitchen sells the home. I do want to point out that not only are homeowners interested in the resale factor but also they are interested in designing for their forever home.  They want to stay in their home longer and feel safe and secure and happy. The National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) and Kitchen & Bath Industry Show just released the 2026 Kitchen Trends Report based on a survey conducted among the NKBA community including the US and Canada. Did this survey agree with independent designers?  The topics I covered StyleCabinet ColorsKitchen layoutsInduction CookingTask zonesDecorative LightingKitchen islandsDid you agree with the surveys?  What is your opinion on these topics?Listen to my weekly podcast to learn everything about your home, what the current trends are, how to design, plan and execute your remodel and much moreIf you have questions for my guests in this podcast or past podcasts, please send them to Nancy@NancyHugo.comBy the way, you can send me an email at Nancy@nancyhugo.com to get on my email list for DesignersCircleHQ.com.  All the podcasts are posted there as well as Design Trends, Design News and more.  DesignersCirclehq.com is a website!If you want to learn more about me, go to NancyHugo.com This podcast is sponsored by ⁠⁠Monogram.com

In this special episode, co-hosts Teena and Jim kick off the new season with a unique twist: instead of interviewing a guest, they dive into a reflective exercise designed to help them—and listeners—learn to delight in the often-overlooked aspects of life. Drawing from Jim's creative practice, they each choose something they typically resist or undervalue (for Teena, restoring order at home; for Jim, baseball) and walk through a six-step process to cultivate appreciation and gratitude. The conversation is rich with personal stories, honest struggles, and thoughtful insights about attention, creativity, and the hidden gifts in everyday routines. Along the way, Teena and Jim explore how their perspectives have been shaped by past experiences, how they see echoes of the divine in mundane tasks, and how embracing new disciplines can lead to deeper joy and connection. Listeners will come away inspired to notice the beauty in the ordinary, reflect on their own narratives, and perhaps try the exercise themselves. The episode sets a warm, introspective tone for the season, promising more meaningful conversations to come. Learning to Delight in God's World (Especially the Overlooked Parts) There is not one blade of grass, there is no color in this world, that is not intended to make us rejoice. - John Calvin There are many aspects of God's world that we often overlook or even resist delighting in. But with intentionality and attentiveness, we can cultivate a deep appreciation and gratitude toward God, even for the things we typically ignore or don't typically value. Here are six practices to help you cultivate delight in God's gifts and see the overlooked goodness in God's world. 1. See it through the eyes of someone who loves it. Borrow someone else's affection for and let their appreciation awaken your own curiosity. 2. Learn its context. Explore its history, purpose, or ecosystem. Understanding often unlocks awe. 3. Truly experience it. Don't just observe it from afar. Step into it. Try it. Engage your senses. 4. Prayerfully Contemplate. Pay attention to the intricacies of it, who is impacted by it, and hidden brilliance within your things. Let that detail lead you into worship and thanksgiving. 5. Examine your story about it. What's your personal narrative around this thing? Identify the ways your personal narratives prevent you from seeing the hidden goodness. Even if there are some truly broken aspects of your “thing,” God's grace is always at work and there are likely stories of people who are resisting that evil. Or it's merely a good aspect of God's world that has been twisted and is not being used the way God wants it. 6. Look for the echoes of God. What does this thing reflect about God? Where is His beauty, order, or creativity, or providence hidden inside?

Hello! This is Episode 370, and in it, I’m catching up again with HOME Method member, Tatiana, as she continues the journey of designing and planning her new family home in regional Queensland with her partner and three boys. In this episode, we dive into more of the details, including exploring how Tatiana is thinking ahead about her kitchen and bathrooms, researching materials and layouts that will work for her climate, and looking at ways to minimise maintenance and avoid common pitfalls. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/370] In Part 1 in the last podcast, Episode 369, we talked about keeping the design simple to suit their budget, making key layout choices, how Tatiana has found their budget constraints helpful to keep them on track, and collaborating closely with their building designer and builder. (You can find that episode at www.undercoverarchitect.com/369) In Part 2, we talk about navigating cost allowances, how to work with joiners and suppliers when budgets are tight, and where off-the-shelf items might make sense. And Tatiana shares her honest thoughts on finance, including the overwhelm many homeowners feel, and we discuss when and how to start meaningful conversations with a mortgage broker to support design decisions. Lastly, we explore blower door testing, what it is, when to do it, and how it can improve building performance, especially in sustainable or airtight homes. If you’re preparing for your own project and want to hear how to juggle big-picture planning with the smaller details, while keeping your budget and goals in balance, I think you’ll find this episode really valuable. Remember, if you’d like to grab a full transcript of this episode, plus links to resources we discuss, you can find it by heading to www.undercoverarchitect.com/370. Now, let’s dive in!

When was the last time you got quiet enough to hear what your life is already telling you?What powers your best decisions—hustle or quiet? Chef-founder and former actor Vikki Krinsky shares how she turned premonition-level intuition, elite-client kitchen experience, and stubborn resilience into VK Bars, a clean B12 energy bar now landing in luxury hotels—without venture money. From a life-altering choice at 15 to follow her inner signal, to staging in Europe, to cooking for A-listers, to saying “no” to additives and “yes” to athletes, Vikki shows how to stack wins, slow down, and let feelings inform execution.

J. Ryan Stradal is our Writer in Residence, if you have been following along.  What does that mean?  Well, we have been with him from step one since he started his fourth novel, as yet unnamed.  A deeply personal novel that imagines the third act his mother might have lived if she had progressed past the age of 55.  She was J.'s person, his guiding light and his North Star.  He has now finished his first draft and we talk to him as he tackles notes and thinks about bringing the novel to market.  Also joining us is Jonah Zimiles, one of our all-time favorite booksellers with his mission based independent bookstore, Words in Maplewood.  Join us for a great show with old friends.
