Better late than never, here is this week's episode. Nick seriously won't shut up about this award winning book (or how well his roast chicken came out). This week, Nick sleuths out a recipe and then draws inspiration from Mastering the Art of French Cooking, a classic cookbook written, in part, by Julia Childe. We hope you enjoy this episode and that you keep listening!
