S1E9: New Orleans
It’s an intense one, folks! Laura is feeling that hectic end-of-the-school-year teacher life, she’s come to some sad realizations about her grandma, and she’s happy to live in a time of Game of Thrones. Meanwhile, Sara is digging herself out from under a huge pile of emails, she’s dealing with some negative body image issues, and she’s sporting a cute new haircut. Then the tables turn and they switch to the topic of New Orleans while drinking some classic daiquiris. Sara shares her top tips from her recent trip while they get progressively more tipsy, and then they end with recommendations.
