Episode 7 | Everything Laura Ingalls Ate in the Little House in the Big Woods Eat Like A Heroine

Inspired by Lorilee’s recent trip to Little House in the Big Woods, this episode will be devoted to Laura Ingalls Wilder and especially her first book in the series, which is really an ode to food. 9 pages on cheese! 30 pages on maple syrup! There’s a whole lot to love about food eaten at the Little House in the Big Woods. 
Timeline note: this episode was recorded before our Christmas episode, in which we made a pretty big announcement. We also make that announcement here, which, if you didn't catch our Christmas episode, might be news to you! Regardless, we are so excited, it's worth sharing twice. :)
Shownotes:
“Once upon a time, sixty years ago, a little girl lived in the Big Woods of Wisconsin, in a little gray house made of logs,” so begins Mrs. Wilder’s first book. As anyone who has read it knows, there is just so much food!
Friends, we need to talk about that maple syrup party. Not to mention hasty pudding, Johnny Cakes, and Vinegar Pie, which sounds kind of good to us, to be honest. 
Let’s time travel to the Big Woods, where we will learn all about what Laura, Mary and Ma and Pa ate, how they prepared it, and how we might whip up some of that Big Woods goodness in our own kitchens.
