Speaker 2:She is one of my Michelle is her real name, but I feel like we literally only refer to you as Mish.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I think, michelle. I don't know the last time you guys have called me Michelle, yeah.
Speaker 2:Like never.
Speaker 1:Never Mish, mishmo, take your pick. Yeah, did you always go by Mish, or did you have another nickname when you were younger?
Speaker 3:No, my brother and sister called me Mush like Mushface Sure, just to be mean. But no, I think Mishmo came about in high school, yeah, and then it's cute, it's stuck, and Mish also lives in Boston, and she and I are besties from college.
Speaker 1:We both went to Clemson together.
Speaker 2:Yeah, go Tigers. I'm also a Clemson fan. For the record, yes.
Speaker 1:No, yes, 1, a Clemson fan for the record yes, no, yes, 1000%. I feel like for years we would go to the Clemson Boston College game, bc game. Brittany is a BC alum and she would be like repping Clemson.
Speaker 2:It was awesome. Yeah, yeah, well, they're just. Their fans are more fun and they're better. They're more fun to watch.
Speaker 1:No, we love it sucks. We're here for for it. You came down enough times when I was in school.
Speaker 2:You are an honorary tiger yes, I want to do the chant. I'm doing it in my head.
Speaker 1:I will spare you all, yeah, me tell us about where you like grew up well, I grew yeah, I grew up in not far from clemson.
Speaker 3:I grew up in greenville, south carolina, so it's about like 30 minutes from Clemson, and lived there my whole life and then I moved up to Boston. It's been 11 years now. That's crazy.
Speaker 1:Isn't that crazy, that is crazy.
Speaker 3:When I was moving up to Boston I had nowhere to live and I was like Kristen, can I come? You guys were living together with Heather. Shout out to Heather, Shout out to Heather In Southie, and you guys just let some random girl live with you for a month.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, I can't believe that was 11 years ago.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I know, and, like me, and Britt had met, but I had never met Heather and she was cool with me staying, and then I got a Craigslist roommate after that and she ended up being crazy and so I had to move back in with you guys. We could have a whole episode on that story. That, yeah, we really could. I'm still traumatized.
Speaker 1:We were all living in southie but moved in maybe like a five minute walk down the street like just people.
Speaker 2:You didn't know right, but you met.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, it was like a craigslist thing. So like we met, like tried to see if it was a good fit and usually like I can spot a crazy, but like she really hit it well and it came out full force she was like chill, for I would say what like three months, yeah, three, four months.
Speaker 3:She had a really big problem with the other girl I lived with, so she was always like picking fights with her and like it was just weird, like it ended up being like the cops were called. I had to flee, I had had to bring Kristen over there to like check and see if my shit was still there at one point.
Speaker 1:Well, mind you, this was also. There was a winter where we truly, for the month of February, had a blizzard.
Speaker 2:Every single Saturday Shout out Lou, shout out Lou yeah.
Speaker 1:Shout out, baby Lou.
Speaker 2:Shout out, baby Lou.
Speaker 1:And we it was like five feet of snow for the entire month. We were all going a little stir crazy and and this is when mish really needed to get out of this situation and, like I have a very vivid memory of us walking through the streets of southie we're like let's bust you out, girl, let's get your stuff, you're out of there. And we're like dragging these huge suitcases down the blizzard. You know streets of southeast yeah, they're like all like bumpy.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we're like in the middle of the road because you can't walk on the sidewalks oh my god do you ever know what happened to her? No, I blocked her on everything I just heard.
Speaker 2:Don't trust the internet but anywho, yeah, then we got to live with you yeah, oh, my god, I'm so thankful you got to experience the youtube madness that happened at our apartment oh, I love it.
Speaker 3:That's when couch sundays were a thing. We would just hang on the couch watch like YouTube videos of One Direction.
Speaker 2:Taylor. Oh yeah, we were big into One Day then.
Speaker 3:Yeah, shout out Niall, shout out Niall. The best Rihanna's looking pretty hot tonight. Yes, we rewound that part probably 50 times.
Speaker 2:I can't yell. Okay, it's nighttime and I can't yell because my children are sleeping. But yeah, no, it wasn't like Rihanna's looking hot in that dress.
Speaker 1:Like Niall's, like 12 and they're at like they're getting interviewed behind the stage.
Speaker 2:So awkward.
Speaker 1:So this was like when Wendy was like new on the scene and the interviewer asked yeah, like who are you excited to see? And that baby Niall just goes. Rihanna's looking pretty hot tonight. Sorry about my terrible Irish accent. You know. What we'll have to do is find that clip and post it on our socials.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah definitely so me and Misha always joke we can't remember when we met, but we did live together. My sophomore year, your junior year for what Clemson had, that was called Maymester. It was like a one month semester and Mish moved in with me and my roommate Hannah because they both went to high school together and that is like generally how we all got connected is you went to high school with two of your roommates.
Speaker 2:I feel like everyone was from Greenville, like everyone I met at Clemson was from Greenville. Yeah, yeah, there's a lot of us. Greenville must be really big.
Speaker 3:It is, it is really big I still.
Speaker 1:I mean, I have such a soft spot for, like the upstate. I love South Carolina. But I'm curious, what's like your favorite thing about living in each place?
Speaker 3:I think I think here, I think I think I like I, I love the diversity, like there's just so many different kinds of like people here and cultures and like there's obviously like a lot to do, like being in a bigger city. I love like the, the camaraderie and like the spirit, like people like who are from Boston like love being from Boston, like they're so proud. You know I love that in the south. I mean obviously I love that my family's still there. I love how chill people are in the south. You know I love that in the south. I mean obviously I love that my family's still there.
Speaker 3:I love how chill people are in the south. You know it's just chill, it's everyone takes their time, like no one's honking a horn. Totally, you know everyone's. Just in general, people are just more friendly. You know, yeah, definitely. So I do miss that and definitely like the nature in the south, because we grew up like close to the mountains in North Carolina and so I mean we'd go there every weekend growing up like hiking. So I do miss that part too. Definitely pros and cons in both places, for sure.
Speaker 2:I feel like South Carolina, too, is like sneaky, like beautiful.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:Well even just like, even like watching like OBX, like I know a lot of it's filmed in charleston and stuff like the sky and stuff. Like I was like I feel like I remember going to clemson being like it is like more beautiful down here, yeah it's beautiful.
Speaker 3:I remember I remember moving up to boston and being like they don't have beach. I did no research when I moved to boston by the way okay, this is embarrassing to admit I was like I was moving in the summer and I was like it's not gonna be hot up there. I mean, it's like up, you know, up pretty far north like, and they don't have beaches. I don't need to bring a swimsuit, oh my God. And then, like I got here, it's like some of the best beaches in the world.
Speaker 2:That's like confirming what I think everyone not from here thinks of us. Yes.
Speaker 3:I can't judge. I have the worst geography. That's the South Carolina education for you the public school education.
Speaker 1:Well, I will say I feel like you and I have commented on this and like it's not a good or bad thing but just an observation we had like a lot of times up here early on. Question will be like oh so what do you do, you know, for work? And it's like that emphasis on kind of career achievement, all that, and like you know what I mean. And when you go down South it's like, how's your family Like? Are you dating anybody? It's like very much the focus on kind of the family set and I feel like we always used to kind of comment on that.
Speaker 3:Yeah, for sure. Another thing is like people up here are very much like tied to like. They're like, oh, I'm Irish or I'm Italian, like people in the South, like they don't say that. They're like they don't. They're like I'm from the South, you know.
Speaker 2:I wonder, why that is.
Speaker 1:I know that is so true, Like I don't think I know the background of any of our friends from Clemson, Like if they're Italian, Irish friends like I really couldn't even tell you anybody, don't? I mean, I don't know how many of my friends I could tell you I feel like well, you're like irish italian and genus irish italian I like don't even know where I am.
Speaker 3:You guys are all irish, italian. Yeah, like there's a pretty good chance that you're like irish.
Speaker 1:I feel like we were like in school we do like projects on it and stuff. Yeah butwho you have firmly been planted here and now you are a mom.
Speaker 3:I'm a mom. Yeah, my baby girl Romy. She's going to be 16 months actually tomorrow.
Speaker 1:Oh my gosh. So I know it's crazy.
Speaker 3:Everyone. That was like a thing that people said and it would drive me crazy when I was pregnant. They're like the time is going to go by so fast. I'm like, yeah, yeah it is, but it really is true. It's like insane how fast it goes.
Speaker 2:I feel like after the first few months, you know like after they're like three to four months, then it like flies by. Yeah, yeah, the first three months beginning yeah, hold on your seatbelts, yep for.
Speaker 1:For sure, like if you could go back. Is there something you're like damn I wish I knew. Or like something you would tell yourself?
Speaker 3:I think, like well, in terms of like labor and delivery, I think I would tell myself, girl, you need to have a healthier fear for this, because I went into that hospital being like I got this. This is going to be easy. You know, I'm a physical therapist, I know how to push a baby out. I'm, you know, got body awareness. I worked out my whole pregnancy. No, that shit was hard. Okay, you need to have a healthy fear and respect for that process Seriously. But no, I think the first few months, like just kind of like what I said already, like it's, it is, it's temporary, like everything is temporary, like, you know, the not getting the sleep, like it's yeah, I think, I think yeah, I think for me.
Speaker 3:I was just like when is this going to end? Like there was just no end in sight. I didn't know how long it was going to go on. Like the no sleeping thing, that it's like it really freaked me out. But now that on the other side, it's like I should have just kind of buckled down and enjoyed it more rather than I, I just felt very anxious about like when is she gonna sleep?
Speaker 2:yeah, yeah, but I feel like that'll be easier if you have another kid, that, yeah, you won't be as like anxious about that. Yeah, yeah, for sure, but you're sleeping way less so um, yeah, oh yeah, awesome yeah, do you remember this?
Speaker 1:I think it's when we were living together, so we were probably like 27, 28 and one of your friends had a baby and like pushed for. I don't know, 15 minutes or something ridiculously for eight minutes. Eight minutes with her first child and mish was telling me about it and she's like oh my god, eight minutes, that's that are we gonna have to push that long. I was like girl.
Speaker 3:I was like is she okay? That's so long. This is like my first friend who had a baby, so I had no. The only thing that I. It is way different than you think yeah, because in like tv and in movies, which now I'm like, of course it's nothing like they push for like 30 seconds.
Speaker 2:I fast forward every birth scene. I'm just like I don't need to watch this. Well, yeah, it's just like this is so fake and like I'm not having kids anymore, like I don't watch this yeah, yeah, I feel like every birth story I've heard too.
Speaker 1:It's just so different, you know it's so different?
Speaker 3:yeah, for sure. And you really don't know what you're gonna do.
Speaker 2:Like you, you have no idea until you yeah, I feel like I was the opposite of you.
Speaker 1:I was like scared, shitless and I should have been yeah, exactly, yeah well, you, yeah, you had you had a tough go so, but these babies are here and thriving.
Speaker 3:I know and I'm ready to do it again. You know it hasn't scared me away, so what?
Speaker 1:is that epidural? Oh my God, wait, okay, actually. Tangent, no shade, no shame to anyone who chooses to have their baby, however they want Like I'm not saying this to shade, but like I don't know how people do it without the epidural from what I'm hearing. Fuck that. Yeah, I know, I don't know. My sister went to high school. The girl who had an at-home birth in like a like in her tub. No, absolutely not.
Speaker 2:Absolutely not. Absolutely not, absolutely, not no.
Speaker 3:Yeah, Can't do that. No, I remember an old coworker of mine and I was like in my early twenties and so I had. But I, I remember this. I remember her saying that she was like you don't get an award for not getting an, for not getting an epidural. You don't get a cookie you don't get anything.
Speaker 2:That's why some people are like, oh, I just don't want to. It's like, why, why?
Speaker 3:I was begging for that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, same.
Speaker 3:I thought that should stat.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like your delivery is just as I don't know, I don't know the right word.
Speaker 2:Valid. Yeah, yeah, girl Nailed it Nailed it For both of you. Favorite thing about being a mom? I mean mean, that's hard to answer in one. I feel like I would probably say, like how much they love you, yeah, like they're just like obsessed with you and like yeah, I would say that I think like watching her learn.
Speaker 3:She's like picking stuff up like every day, like she just learned something new. It's so interesting, it's like so interesting to me yeah, yeah, learning and development. Yeah, yeah, and she just knows things like inherently. I'm like how did you know that?
Speaker 2:I know I'm always actually teaching another language, like probably I feel like everyone says right now, they're little.
Speaker 3:I'm on the opposite side my girl goes to a spanish daycare and my mother-in-law speaks Hungarian to her on Saturdays, and so I've had many conversations with different like health professionals, like is this going to delay here? And they're like no, no, no. Everyone has said nope, just blow it, she's a sponge.
Speaker 2:That's crazy.
Speaker 1:I love that. I feel like Romy is like. Romy will just literally be anywhere and be hanging out and is just chill as anything, but she just wants to be there, like she wants to be there. She doesn't need to be playing, she doesn't need to be like you know, you don't have to be in her face, but she wants to be at the table and she wants to be seeing what's going on, would you?
Speaker 3:agree, yeah, respect, oh, 100%, yeah, 100%. She like, just, she, just. She doesn't play by herself, she just wants to be in the same room as me or Nelson. Oh yeah, she just needs to be around us and she could be doing nothing, but she will follow you everywhere.
Speaker 1:Yeah, tell us a little bit about Nellie and what he does and maybe how you guys met.
Speaker 3:Nellie's my husband. He's a chef. He works at a place called moon bar, which is in downtown boston. It's like I make fun of him all the time. But he says it's like equatorial food, so just stuff like I know I. I mean I I love that, but but it's like cuisine found near the equator, so indian, caribbean, african, but yeah, it's really great, good spot. Shout out moon bar. Yeah, so we met.
Speaker 3:We met on a camping trip, on our annual camping trip back and I remember seeing him for the first time being like oh, who's that? And then I just got busy talking to everyone and then, yeah, we just kind of hit it off. But we went out and I had already planned on moving back to South Carolina so I was like we can go out for dinner, but I am moving in like a couple weeks. So we went out anyways, and then I ended up moving back six months later because I was like, nah, I need to be in Boston. And then, yeah, we just kind of linked back up and we've been together ever since.
Speaker 1:We posted this on our socials. But there Mish is a phenomenal cook and I she has made me many a meal that I take like 1700 photos of. You know, it's just so funny every time I go over to their house because I, brittany and I we've said many times on this pod, like we don't cook, it's not our thing. So I have, like you know, four ingredients. I feel like in I we've said many times on this pod, like we don't cook, it's not our thing. So I have, like you know, four ingredients. I feel like in my, my house, but Mish and Nellie have literally you go into their fridge and it's like tubware bins with labels, it's like lobster bits, jealous, you know, yeah, it's ridiculous, it's, it's amazing. So I guess, like, like you know, is there anything that you really learned from nelson being he is being a professional chef any like tips of the trade that?
Speaker 3:you've got. Yeah, yeah, for sure, your favorite one. You love this one. But like when you season anything with salt, like put bring your hand a little higher than you think so it like spreads out more evenly.
Speaker 2:Wait okay, wait, kristen told me you were gonna to say that, but she was like, oh, she's definitely going to say this one, she loves this one.
Speaker 3:Kristen loves this one, kristen loves that one. I tell a lot of people that. Yeah.
Speaker 2:She's definitely going to say this one, she loves that one, it's so true.
Speaker 3:It's so true.
Speaker 1:It's like the tip that you taught me that I'm like it has just always stuck.
Speaker 2:It's stuck right. It's a great one that is great.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, yeah. And salt. I mean, like chefs use a lot more salt than I think the average cook does and that's why their food tastes better. So yeah, another thing with salt is like salt every step. So it's like when you add like I don't know, when you add like onions and garlic, salt it. And then if you add something else to the pan, like salt a little bit more. I'm like you know what I mean like so everything you always like hold it up high.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and you hold it up high exactly salt on my popcorn.
Speaker 3:I can be like yeah, it'll be more evenly distributed. That's when I use salt, yeah. Yeah, salt it up, yeah, and then to taste everything, obviously, which sometimes I don't want to do until something's finished, but yeah, you should taste it so you don't over salt it, or yeah, I think one of my favorite tips that he said that he taught me is like using herbs, like he's like like every dish should have an herb. So like when you finish, I remember the first time this is like the first time I ever cooked for him I was like he's coming over, it's like actually to our place yeah, you must have been nervous oh my god, I was freaking out.
Speaker 3:I spent all day I went to like three different grocery stores. Oh I was like, what am I gonna cook? So I figured I'd cook Indian for him. I was. Maybe he doesn't know how to cook Indian food, which of course he does, but I made butter chicken from one of my friend's mom's back home.
Speaker 3:So taught me how to make it. And I remember I made it for him it was good, and I was just like any tips? And he was like, yeah, I would have put. The only tip is I would have added a little cilantro, Like you should always finish something like with an herb. And I was like, oh okay. And I thought I was like, oh, my friend's mom actually does that, but like I don't know, Probably, if you like paid attention at a restaurant now.
Speaker 2:Like we'll notice it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we're definitely going to notice that now. I feel like it does also do something for the presentation.
Speaker 3:Definitely yeah, yeah, yeah. That's one of my favorite tips.
Speaker 1:Well for our, for new cooks out there, top ingredients to always have in the house, anything that we should be stocking up on that maybe you use a lot.
Speaker 3:I mean? I mean, the first things that come to mind are just staples like olive oil, salt, pepper. Your your really spices? You know like the best the best spice. Pepper your, your really spices? You know like the best the best spice. Onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, little salt, little pepper. Put that on anything chicken. Put it on chickpeas.
Speaker 1:Something that you might need to write that down for me no-transcript the pan.
Speaker 3:A lot of these left in the bowl, so yeah, do a little bit more than you think.
Speaker 2:Yeah, what do you like to make for romi?
Speaker 3:oh, gosh romi. She's kind of going through a little picky phase right now. I think she's coming out of it, but I, I make. I make a lot of different things. I like try to steam. I try to have a couple like steamed vegetables on hand. She loves carrots, loves carrots. I'll do like rice and beans a lot for her. She doesn't meat so I try to do like beans for protein. She loves an egg. She'll eat an egg every morning. I think my favorite thing to make for her is pancakes on the weekend, just because like it's like oh, kind of celebrates the weekend. Yeah, it's special. It's something that me and nelson can eat with her too, because a lot of times, like, the food that we eat is a little spicier, so we don't really give her a lot of that.
Speaker 1:Totally. Okay, this might sound like, really like. It might sound dumb. I'm putting myself at risk. This very well may be edited, but like when you steam vegetables.
Speaker 2:Oh boy, let's talk about that.
Speaker 1:Are we putting them in like what's that thing?
Speaker 3:A strainer. You know A steamer. It's like a steamer basket. So there's like a specific type of pot you need. It's like an insert.
Speaker 1:It's like a steaming insert that you like lay?
Speaker 3:I knew you didn't know either.
Speaker 2:Oh, I don't know. Are you kidding me?
Speaker 3:I barely know how to mark the microwave yeah, so you put like a very thin layer of water in and then you put the strainer thing or not strainer the steamer thing in there and you boil it. You have to put the lid on, okay, so the steam stays in the pot. You put the water in, you put the little steamer insert in and you put your vegetables or whatever you want to steam in, and then you put the lid on, you boil it and then the steam builds up in the pot, but the, but the whatever you're steaming is out of the liquid. Does that make?
Speaker 2:sense I lost me a little bit.
Speaker 3:It's okay, We'll do a tutorial next podcast. You know what?
Speaker 1:right, you, you were gonna have the best salted popcorn in the world in the world, you know, so that money can buy, so yeah, I think I'm gonna eat popcorn after this delicious last cooking question easiest like go-to dinner recipe if you're not really feeling like cooking, but you got to do something. What are you going for?
Speaker 3:I have a couple recipes that are like my go-to, just like super quick, but I think, like, like, fajitas are really easy. You just, I love fajitas. Yeah, you just chop everything up and you put it in a baking dish and you bake it.
Speaker 2:You don't put it on the stove?
Speaker 3:I don't, I have a. I have a recipe where you bake it oh, that sounds easier and you literally put it on the stove. I don't. I have a recipe where you bake it oh, that sounds easier and you literally put it all in one dish. And it freaked me out at first to put the raw chicken in with the vegetables. But I mean, I don't know, I've been doing it for years and I'm fine.
Speaker 2:I can try that.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's a good one. And then I have another recipe. It's another Indian dish. It's called chana masala. You do have to have the specific spice. It's kind of annoying. You have to go to an Indian grocery store. You can get it on Amazon. It's chickpeas, chopped tomatoes from a can onion and then the spice. You serve it over rice. It literally takes 20 minutes. Start to finish.
Speaker 2:I think chicken fajitas is definitely like just like my go-to so lots of salt, probably lots of else you put on there lots of spice I do paprika, onion powder, chili powder, garlic powder, I think, probably some cayenne pepper a little bit you know what, now that you're saying that I totally made that, that was like before.
Speaker 1:I was like, traveling, I used to make that regularly because you made it and I was like, oh, this is really good and it's easy oh nice, I'm gonna have to bring that back yeah, yeah, so I can, I can show, show you guys the recipe.
Speaker 3:I use amazing, we can post it. Yeah, thanks, mish, I use Amazing, we can post it.

Speaker 3:Yeah, for sure. I mean Shep does too, but you know.
Speaker 2:True, true, shep definitely does.
Speaker 3:I feel like Shep was just born that way. He can't help it. I just feel like Austin had so much potential and like is such a huge drag, like the fame went to his head.
