Show Notes
This week, we kick things off with a little MasterChef debrief—past judges, new faces, and the very important observation: Have you noticed TM7s on the contestants' benches?
Then, we get into it: what kind of mum are you feeding this Mother’s Day? From Fancy Mums to Boozy Mums (and everything in between), we’re diagnosing mum personalities and building the perfect menu to match.
Bronte fully leans into his Boozy Mum era with meatballs in a rich wine sauce, while Erin embraces her inner Fancy Mum with a shellfish nage in champagne (because obviously). We’re also poaching pears in red wine and finishing things off with a chamomile custard tart that feels very Meghan Markle-coded—elevated, shall we say?
And to wrap it up, … what kind of mums did we grow up with?
Whether you’re cooking up a storm or just here for the wine and snacks, we’ve got your Mother’s Day sorted.

This week we’ve done the grocery shopping so you don’t have to. Well, sort of.
School holidays are FINALLY over and Erin is hanging by a thread. Between endless sleepovers, children who apparently never leave (and have individual egg orders), and Dad landing back in hospital, there’s not much left in the tank.
THE BACHELOR’S HANDBAG Australia’s most reliable dinner date is getting the episode it deserves. But first… obviously we spend a completely reasonable 12 minutes reviewing Kylie’s Grand Final performance before remembering this is allegedly a food podcast. Then we get down to chook business: Coles vs Woolies — who’s got the superior bird? What are we actually DOING with a cooked chook? Viral chicken recipes worth trying Chicken lasagne Peking chook pancakes French onion chicken pie Nagi’s Buffalo Chicken Dip — so rich you may want 000 on standby Because there is SO much more to the humble supermarket chook than sandwiches and sad Tuesday-night salad.
THIS ONE TIME, AT BAND CAMP… Yes, Erin actually plays the flute. Yes, she went to band camp. And yes, this week’s chat about our kids getting into trouble somehow turned into Erin & Bronte confessing their own school misdemeanours. Also on this week’s completely sensible food podcast...
