- 0:21Speaker 2: was doing.
- 0:21Speaker 3: Y'all forewarned. I'm a little scattered brain today. So Annie,
- 0:26Speaker 3: thank you. I know you've been holding down the fort,
- 0:29Speaker 3: as we say. I've been kind of in and out
- 0:31Speaker 3: in availability, as we will say, and I know you've
- 0:34Speaker 3: been holding down the fort. I appreciate that so much,
- 0:37Speaker 3: especially with your flexibility.
- 0:39Speaker 2: Couldn't do this without you. But yes, this is in
- 0:41Speaker 2: a happy hour.
- 0:43Speaker 3: And before we start, just know that we are not
- 0:45Speaker 3: currently being sponsored by any of the things that we
- 0:47Speaker 3: are mentioning. And that also if you are partaking of
- 0:52Speaker 3: any adult stuff, so any of the stuffs that usually
- 0:56Speaker 3: pertains to happy hours do so responsibly care about you obviously, Annie,
- 1:02Speaker 3: are you partaking of any of the adult stuff that
- 1:05Speaker 3: has something to do with happy hours?
- 1:06Speaker 1: Yeah, Sam, I'm having a light beer. I've become sort
- 1:11Speaker 1: of the hub for my friends who just want to
- 1:14Speaker 1: come to Atlanta for whatever reason, and they've left a
- 1:18Speaker 1: lot of beer in my fridge and some of it anyway,
- 1:23Speaker 1: I'm trying to get rid of.
- 1:26Speaker 3: Space for that precious refrigerator space we have mentioned previously.
- 1:32Speaker 2: You know, it's important if you know.
- 1:33Speaker 3: You know, for myself, I am drinking my bubble of
- 1:37Speaker 3: water because you know, I like to be hot trated,
- 1:41Speaker 3: and it's as scattered as my brain is today. Still
- 1:44Speaker 3: no day for an alcoholic beverage for myself. But with
- 1:48Speaker 3: all of that, I thought it would be fun just
- 1:50Speaker 3: to kind of talk about how food is interesting like
- 1:53Speaker 3: such an individual basis, especially when it comes to like
- 1:56Speaker 3: snacking and eating habits. I found this in staying. When
- 2:00Speaker 3: I get with family, obviously people worry about what you eat.
- 2:03Speaker 3: I think that's just a homegrown thing, you know, making
- 2:06Speaker 3: sure everybody's well fed, well taken care of, providing good.
- 2:09Speaker 2: Food, tasty food hopefully, I know for my family again.
- 2:16Speaker 3: We sat into our living room for meals, and most
- 2:21Speaker 3: of the food typically at the time I was growing
- 2:24Speaker 3: up were catered to my dad his preferences as well.
- 2:29Speaker 3: And growing up, like now that I am an adult,
- 2:32Speaker 3: I eat how I want, you know, like the adult
- 2:35Speaker 3: eating is interesting.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Sometimes it's just a snack. My cheese.
- 2:39Speaker 3: My go to is to have cheese the meats in
- 2:43Speaker 3: an apple and some kind of like bread like that.
- 2:46Speaker 3: Is a favorite meal, and I'm starting to add Korean
- 2:50Speaker 3: side dishes or bonchons to that meal as well.
- 2:54Speaker 2: What does your habits become whatever is left at your house?
- 3:01Speaker 1: Kind of I feel like the segment is sort of
- 3:04Speaker 1: the answer to that question. Uh well, I kind of infamously,
- 3:10Speaker 1: and to my friend's annoyance, I don't snack, but people
- 3:15Speaker 1: give me a lot of snacks, but they're healthy snacks,
- 3:19Speaker 1: and my friends don't like those snacks, so they won't
- 3:22Speaker 1: eat them, and then they get mad that I don't
- 3:24Speaker 1: have any snacks. But I'm very much like what I
- 3:29Speaker 1: have that is what I'm going to eat. Yeah, if
- 3:32Speaker 1: it's going bad, that is what I'm going to eat. Right,
- 3:35Speaker 1: does it have mold on it? Okay, maybe I won't
- 3:38Speaker 1: eat it, Maybe I will.
- 3:39Speaker 2: To be honest with you, there, what are you doing?
- 3:46Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but I won't feed it to you.
- 3:49Speaker 2: No, It's true.
- 3:50Speaker 1: That is my choice that I make, and I don't
- 3:53Speaker 1: always make it. Yeah, well not unless that's what the
- 3:57Speaker 1: whole thing is. But yeah, no.
- 4:01Speaker 3: Yeah. I think it's really funny because since my partner
- 4:03Speaker 3: and I started living together, I do all the shopping
- 4:06Speaker 3: for the most part, and then so all of the
- 4:08Speaker 3: food based is my decision. I do a chunk of
- 4:12Speaker 3: the mills, and then the half of the days, I'm like,
- 4:15Speaker 3: you make your own stuff. I'm making noodles. You eat
- 4:18Speaker 3: what you want type of situation, and or like fin
- 4:23Speaker 3: for yourself meals or I've already eaten my snacks. But
- 4:27Speaker 3: I'm also really picky about if I'm not interested in it,
- 4:30Speaker 3: I'm not gonna eat it, as where my partner will
- 4:33Speaker 3: pick up kind of like you. If it's there, he's
- 4:35Speaker 3: gonna eat it. He doesn't want to waste things, which
- 4:37Speaker 3: is great. He's also the one that buys things on
- 4:40Speaker 3: sales and not necessarily because he wants it, which drives
- 4:43Speaker 3: me crazy. I don't know why, and I don't know
- 4:47Speaker 3: if it's because growing up, like I said, being an
- 4:50Speaker 3: orphanage coming into the US at eight, like seven, trying
- 4:53Speaker 3: to figure everything out.
- 4:54Speaker 2: And now I'm like, I'm an adult.
- 4:55Speaker 3: I don't have to buy that if I don't want to,
- 4:57Speaker 3: if I don't enjoy that, I'm not eating that type
- 4:59Speaker 3: of conversation in my head.
- 5:01Speaker 2: But it is nice to have.
- 5:02Speaker 3: Him around so I don't feel so bad. And he
- 5:05Speaker 3: does take up, I'm like, oh good, you eat it.
- 5:07Speaker 3: I don't want those leftovers anymore.
- 5:08Speaker 2: You eat it. I made this and it tastes weird
- 5:10Speaker 2: to me. You eat it.
- 5:13Speaker 1: That is nice to have that there's a balance there,
- 5:16Speaker 1: there's a balance.
- 5:17Speaker 2: So I like, okay, see see we're working out on
- 5:20Speaker 2: this note.
- 5:20Speaker 3: But I think it's also interesting and like when you
- 5:23Speaker 3: come over to my house, I want to feed you,
- 5:26Speaker 3: like and because I feel like this is me taking
- 5:29Speaker 3: care of you as a friend and showing you how
- 5:31Speaker 3: much I care.
- 5:32Speaker 2: I also have tons of snacks. I love snacks.
- 5:35Speaker 3: And I think this is also partially dude my childhood
- 5:38Speaker 3: when my mom also like based her grocery list on
- 5:41Speaker 3: what's on seal by one get one, Like we used
- 5:45Speaker 3: to get the five for five, no, five for a
- 5:47Speaker 3: dollar hamburgers from McDonald's and I hated it. I hated
- 5:51Speaker 3: their hamburgers.
- 5:52Speaker 2: I still do.
- 5:53Speaker 3: I haven't been for a long time, but hated despise that.
- 5:56Speaker 3: But that's sometimes what you would have. We would have,
- 5:59Speaker 3: not a sponse their laurel and chips, which always felt
- 6:01Speaker 3: like they were always burnt and not as good, which
- 6:05Speaker 3: could be in my head. And I was always jealous
- 6:11Speaker 3: of the kids that brought in their like little fruit
- 6:14Speaker 3: snacks and lunch of bules. I was like, why can't
- 6:17Speaker 3: I have a lunch of ball the handy snacks? Yes,
- 6:23Speaker 3: let me have void so growing up and I'm like, well,
- 6:25Speaker 3: I'm going to buy them. Do I have gushers in
- 6:27Speaker 3: my pantry right now?
- 6:29Speaker 2: Yes? Am I in my forties? Yes.
- 6:31Speaker 3: I don't know why, but I needed the Yeah, I say,
- 6:38Speaker 3: But also you caught me because I also have vanilla
- 6:40Speaker 3: wafers in there. Yes, and they're the tidy ones and
- 6:43Speaker 3: I love those snacks as well.
- 6:45Speaker 2: And I just like, I see things like that made me.
- 6:48Speaker 3: Think, you know, oh, they have money. Not that I'm
- 6:51Speaker 3: trying to show I have money. I'm just trying to
- 6:52Speaker 3: be like, yeah, I want that. That's what I want
- 6:54Speaker 3: because I feel like I was deprived of as a kid.
- 6:57Speaker 2: The cheese sticks we still buy this, like stream cheese.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Oh I bow those because I was so jealous of
- 7:05Speaker 2: the kids.
- 7:06Speaker 1: I do like string cheese though, that I that I'm
- 7:09Speaker 1: on board with.
- 7:11Speaker 2: You don't like the gushers.
- 7:12Speaker 1: I do like gushers. See, Okay, this is where me
- 7:16Speaker 1: and my friend got into a fight. Oh no recently
- 7:20Speaker 1: recently even, yes, we were talking about this. I have
- 7:24Speaker 1: a friend she loves snacks, and she was very angry
- 7:28Speaker 1: with me that have any snacks, and she said to
- 7:32Speaker 1: me like, why would you do this? Well, why would
- 7:35Speaker 1: you deprive yourself? Because I know you like gushers. I
- 7:38Speaker 1: know you like Like she kept saying, like, I know
- 7:41Speaker 1: you like these things.
- 7:42Speaker 4: I was like, well, I'm good though, yeah, but yes,
- 7:48Speaker 4: there are plenty of snacks that I do like, and
- 7:52Speaker 4: I did have a fondness for gushers I did.
- 7:54Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 7:54Speaker 3: Well that's the thing is like, it's definitely different things
- 7:57Speaker 3: in what brings you joy, what doesn't bring you joy,
- 8:00Speaker 3: brings you stress versus all of that, and that's definitely
- 8:02Speaker 3: a different type of conversation. So yeah, I don't know,
- 8:15Speaker 3: it's I think it's interesting as we talk about different
- 8:17Speaker 3: people going to different people's houses.
- 8:19Speaker 2: I love like all of the social.
- 8:21Speaker 3: Media that talk about, you know, you're in a Greek
- 8:24Speaker 3: home when you come over and they're like, no, you
- 8:26Speaker 3: have to eat this lamb, or you have to eat
- 8:28Speaker 3: this like rice, or you have to you know, all
- 8:30Speaker 3: these dishes. You can't leave and if you say you're
- 8:32Speaker 3: not hungry, that's almost offensive. Like those are the stereotypes
- 8:35Speaker 3: I know, but like it's giving love is such a
- 8:38Speaker 3: different way. And I'll also like the Asian community, they're
- 8:40Speaker 3: alsos the same thing, like we're sending you home things,
- 8:43Speaker 3: you take these home, you take this home, which I
- 8:45Speaker 3: also do that inadvertently without thinking about it.
- 8:48Speaker 2: I'm like, you take this home, take.
- 8:49Speaker 3: This home, to the point that even to the part
- 8:51Speaker 3: my partner sometimes be like I wanted that and you
- 8:54Speaker 3: gave it away, and I was like, I'm sorry. You
- 8:56Speaker 3: have to tell me in advance because I must send
- 8:58Speaker 3: it all. If it makes them happy, I'm gonna send
- 9:00Speaker 3: it with them.
- 9:02Speaker 1: Yes, I have currently two takeout containers. When that Samantha
- 9:07Speaker 1: sent me with that were full of food.
- 9:10Speaker 3: Uh, it's if you like it and I made it,
- 9:14Speaker 3: then that makes me so happy.
- 9:15Speaker 2: Although I feel like sometimes people are lying to me
- 9:17Speaker 2: just to be like, uh, we can't tell her.
- 9:19Speaker 3: It was wasn't good, so we're just gonna have to
- 9:22Speaker 3: take it with a smile.
- 9:24Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever had that experience with you,
- 9:27Speaker 1: but I'm sure that you ever tell me though I'm
- 9:31Speaker 1: trying to think of a situation where I would. I'm
- 9:34Speaker 1: sure there is one that I might, but I think
- 9:38Speaker 1: it would be because everyone was miserable you know what
- 9:40Speaker 1: I mean, like if it felt like it was acceptable
- 9:42Speaker 1: to like everyone thought it was bad.
- 9:45Speaker 3: I don't think anyone told me that that would have
- 9:47Speaker 3: been interesting because I've yet to hear everyone because once
- 9:51Speaker 3: we once you, I am like that. I guess I'm
- 9:55Speaker 3: like a mom figure that would you tell me you
- 9:57Speaker 3: like something, You're getting it for the rest of your
- 9:59Speaker 3: life until you tell me to stop.
- 10:01Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so I guess the situation I'm envisioning would
- 10:06Speaker 1: be a uh like even you didn't like it, like
- 10:11Speaker 1: something went really wrong and we could all admit.
- 10:17Speaker 2: Interesting.
- 10:18Speaker 1: But that would be like a one time dish. It
- 10:20Speaker 1: wouldn't be a like recurrent why that I would.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Tell I'll give you that.
- 10:25Speaker 1: I'll give you that.
- 10:25Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure because I was like feeding people this
- 10:27Speaker 3: week and I was like, you eat this, you eat this.
- 10:29Speaker 2: I made this.
- 10:30Speaker 3: I'm like, I can't tell if you're just lying to me,
- 10:32Speaker 3: you're just eating it just for the sake of eating
- 10:34Speaker 3: it and keeping the peace, which is kind I've done that.
- 10:37Speaker 2: I've done that.
- 10:38Speaker 3: Yeah, it's also kind of funny, like cooking styles. My
- 10:42Speaker 3: partner and I cooking styles are so different. I am
- 10:44Speaker 3: buy the book and once I figured out what I
- 10:46Speaker 3: like about the recipe, then I'll change things up. My
- 10:49Speaker 3: partner from Jump makes it his own, like he might
- 10:52Speaker 3: have looked at it for thirty seconds and I've given
- 10:54Speaker 3: him the ingredients and then half of those things may
- 10:57Speaker 3: or may not be used, and other things will be
- 10:58Speaker 3: added and if there's an opportunity to use black garlic.
- 11:03Speaker 1: Immediately, Yeah, he's got his go tos for sure. He's
- 11:10Speaker 1: got his go too.
- 11:13Speaker 3: Oh well, you know when we used to like share
- 11:16Speaker 3: recipes or share things. We need to come back and
- 11:18Speaker 3: do another episode of that, Like we need to find
- 11:20Speaker 3: like and do like, hey all, we've got this new
- 11:23Speaker 3: thing that we have because I've got some bonchon's up
- 11:25Speaker 3: my sleeves that I think I need to share because
- 11:29Speaker 3: we talked about this before, about the aging thing and
- 11:30Speaker 3: the whole retinal carat thing, which is really odd to
- 11:34Speaker 3: me anyway, but that I love.
- 11:36Speaker 2: Carrots are really good.
- 11:38Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm always happy to receive a recipe. I'm much
- 11:43Speaker 1: more like your partner where I'm very careful here. I'm like,
- 11:47Speaker 1: what in what do I have That's what's gonna go
- 11:50Speaker 1: in there out of there?
- 11:51Speaker 3: And that drives me crazy because I'm like I have
- 11:54Speaker 3: to go buy these things that I've never used before,
- 11:58Speaker 3: and I will do it.
- 11:59Speaker 1: Well, that's an interesting thing too, is like I've joked
- 12:05Speaker 1: half seriously before, but there's some people I just feel
- 12:08Speaker 1: I couldn't live with because they of they're eating habits,
- 12:15Speaker 1: they're cooking habits, they're washing dishes habits. Oh but yeah,
- 12:22Speaker 1: I just think there is something interesting about Like, my
- 12:25Speaker 1: friend was legitimately angry about this snacking thing. She was
- 12:30Speaker 1: angry with me. She was angry they weren't snacks, so
- 12:34Speaker 1: you could have brought your own snacks, I mean, which
- 12:37Speaker 1: I'm sure didn't help the argument.
- 12:40Speaker 3: I'm surprised Marissaka didn't come in with a bag of things.
- 12:42Speaker 3: She even brought not too long ago over to the
- 12:44Speaker 3: house her own Easter gummies and I was like, where
- 12:47Speaker 3: did this come from? And left them and I was
- 12:49Speaker 3: thoroughly confused.
- 12:50Speaker 1: She bought some wars so versus one of the friends
- 12:53Speaker 1: that was involved in this fight, and she she knows,
- 12:58Speaker 1: she knew to bring snacks. Actually, my other friend Katie,
- 13:02Speaker 1: who was so mad at me, called Bursa to to
- 13:06Speaker 1: bring more snacks. And I was just confused by the
- 13:12Speaker 1: whole situation. And I was like, I have these dried
- 13:15Speaker 1: schischetos and she was like, no, I need the processed snacks.
- 13:20Speaker 3: Oh my god, well dried schihiedos. She also doesn't like
- 13:23Speaker 3: too many spicy things.
- 13:24Speaker 1: She doesn't like too many spicy things. But tell me
- 13:26Speaker 1: too much about watos or not that spicy.
- 13:28Speaker 3: We are no, but like she comes to hopefully, because
- 13:34Speaker 3: I'm usually the one that's giving her more food than
- 13:37Speaker 3: she actually wants. Half the time, I think that I'm like, no, no,
- 13:40Speaker 3: but you should have this and this, because we had
- 13:42Speaker 3: one night that was themed essentially snacks snackish food based
- 13:47Speaker 3: on the episodes, and I had so much out to
- 13:49Speaker 3: the point that Marissa even laughed at me.
- 13:51Speaker 2: Yeah and again, Maurissa's the queen of bringing things over.
- 13:55Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's the thing is like I do get it.
- 14:00Speaker 1: I make fun of it a lot. I love you.
- 14:04Speaker 1: But I recently hosted them and I made this whole
- 14:08Speaker 1: meal and all this stuff, and it was kind of
- 14:09Speaker 1: it was fun because I was like thinking about, you know,
- 14:14Speaker 1: here's how it's gonna be laid out, here's when the
- 14:16Speaker 1: things are gonna come out, and it's gonna be so good.
- 14:20Speaker 1: They filled up on the damn snacks.
- 14:24Speaker 2: I get that.
- 14:24Speaker 3: I'm like, if I worked on something and then you
- 14:26Speaker 3: didn't need it, I'd be like, I'm gonna throw this
- 14:28Speaker 3: at you.
- 14:31Speaker 1: That was really good. I'm gonna say it was really good.
- 14:35Speaker 2: I'm sad I missed out on that one.
- 14:36Speaker 3: We've been talking about, the one usually you did, which well,
- 14:39Speaker 3: I'm sure we'll talk a little bit more.
- 14:41Speaker 1: Yeah, this is our last of us Watch parties.
- 14:45Speaker 2: I think for the finale. It's happening.
- 14:50Speaker 1: Yeah, it's happening.
