Hello amazing Reader, We're about to go to the shops to buy some ingredients for family dinner... we're making Ragu and we're deciding on what cake to make... should we go for the zesty Lemon and Ricotta cake (check out the recipe below), or the rich, chocolatey Torta Caprese? What's for dinner at your house tonight? On another note, this week (the first week of September, can you believe it?!) we recorded our first podcast since Carla welcomed baby Denny to the world (go Sis!). And since it's a new month, we have a new theme inside our MerryBody community. For September we are welcoming in more RADIANCE. The radiance we're thinking of is the one that starts from within. 426: Carla had a baby, plus a chat about doing hard thingsWe are super excited to be back recording this episode after Carla had a baby (9 weeks ago).
