18. 'California Foodie' with Teresa Morris

Teresa is a foodie and environmentalist from California, and enjoys everything the state has to offer year round. Her favorite place? The farmers market, where she can see what's looking good and in season right now, and interact with the farmers. She loves to let the produce inspire her.

What do babies, sleep and Lemon Meringue Pie have in common? Quite a lot, when it comes to Teresa.

As a foodie and environmentalist from California, Teresa enjoys everything the state has to offer year round. Her favorite place? The farmers market, where she can see what’s looking good and in season right now, and interact with the farmers. She loves to let the produce inspire her, even if that means 3 months of broccoli dishes.

One thing few people know about her is that she owned and ran a restaurant in New Albany (Indiana) for a year.

Intro music: “Child’s Play” by Alex Nekita (alexnekita)

One bottle of unfiltered apple juice
Three seedless orange slices thinly sliced
2 (real) cinnamon sticks
5 cloves

Put everything in a stainless steel pot.
Bring to boil and immediately reduce to simmer. Steep for at least 1 hour, longer is better.
Ladle into a mug and top with firmly whipped (homemade!) whipping cream. Sprinkle a tiny bit of nutmeg on top and serve.
Add a splash of Tuaca for an adult-only version.
