Show Notes:

– Erin Brockovich on Netflix

Mama also heated her butter and 1/2 and 1/2 together before adding them to the potatoes – plus she added a cup of sour cream and about 3/4 cup of cooked bacon pieces with the cream cheese. Mama always used Yukon gold (didn’t bother with peeling them), and she topped the casserole with a little butter and shredded cheddar before putting in the oven at 375.)

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 378

21 February 2024 by Sophie

Listen. My microphone. I’m just as sorry as I can be. Apparently I disconnected something before we recorded. So when you hear how I sound, just pretend I’m a DJ who’s on from 6-10pm in the year of our Lord 1981.

In this episode Melanie shares about a change in her workout routine, we talk about our weekends (as we do every episode), and I celebrate what I believe we can call an eyeshadow victory. Melanie also has an exciting face massage update, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

Hope y’all enjoy!
