The sisters are reeling, shocked, and saddened by the fires that have devastated their county; which delayed the recording of this episode by a week. Shock is still evident in this recording so hang with us. In this episode we introduce one of the best things you can do with pumpkin in the form of a delicious tea cake that lasts for days. We also kick off our Holiday Cookie extravaganza where we introduce a cookie recipe each episode through December.  The sisters also give an update on the business and announce our Bad Ass Baker of the episode.
