Katie talks with her friend and comedian, Leanne Morgan. The two chat about their shared love of country food, humble beginnings, family, perimenopause, menopause, and everything in between.

Leanne describes life on the road as a stand up, her experience in her recently-released movie, You’re Cordially Invited, with Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell, and the ups and downs of the entertainment business.

Katie chats with Molly Yeh, well-known food blogger and host of Food Network’s Girl Meets Farm, about her new baking cookbook, Sweet Farm, filled with over 100 dessert recipes. Many of these recipes are inspired by her own heritage of having a Chinese father and Jewish mother; she uses ingredients like black sesame seeds, halva, red bean paste, matcha, and tahini. She also adds in a nod to her midwestern life with a whole chapter dedicated to cookie salads! Katie gets to sample Molly's Black Sesame Babka, which she has made in collaboration with the famed Breads Bakery.

Molly has a fascinating background, having first moved to New York City to study percussion at Juilliard. It was during this time that she discovered her love of food and exploring new flavors and cuisines in the city. After Julliard, she continued to play freelance music and also began her well-known food blog, My Name is Yeh. She became famous for her baked goods and fun creations using unique ingredients like tahini and marzipan and her signature ingredient, sprinkles.

While living in New York, Molly met her husband, Nick, who was from a farming family in the North Dakota/Minnesota border area. The couple later moved back to the farm and Molly continued to grow her food brand developing recipes and videos online. She later began hosting her Food Network Show, Girl Meets Farm. Molly tells Katie how adjusting to farm life was both relaxing and exciting for her. She is so appreciative of the space and time she has to keep developing recipes and her brand.

Molly and Nick now have two young girls, Bernie and Ira, she tells all the details about what motherhood has been like from early morning workouts, to gymnastics and music class, to how she balances dinnertime. Plus, what harvest is like during different times of year (she even grinds her own fresh flour!).

Join Katie and Molly for an inspiring episode that will make you want to bake up something delicious straight from the farm.
