Super Podcast!

I love listening to Monica and Cortney’s conversations about knitting, painting, cooking and books. So much inspiration!

My Comfort Podcast

I always feel like this podcast was made just for me - Craft, Cook, Read, Repeat - if I only that could be my full day every day 😂

Monica and Cortney are both always working on interesting knitting and painting projects and it’s so fun to see them post their finished work after hearing them talk through the process.

They discuss great recipes and I’ve bought or borrowed a few cookbooks based on their reviews.

As for their reading recommendations, I’ve actually referred non-cooking/crafting friends to this podcast just for the book reviews because they have so many good ones. Both are terrific at providing a good idea of the book without spoiling it.

Always looking forward to their next episode!
