Evie McGee Colbert

It's such a pleasure to have you back on the show, Stephen, and to talk to you, Evie. Thank you. I'm so excited to be here.

Oh, yeah. So first question to you, Stephen, how do you find time to cook? I can't believe that you find time. I don't have time to cook, and I don't have half the job that you do. I make, like, omelets and heat-roasted chicken. Really?

So, Evie, if Colbert is doing all this cooking but doesn't eat it, do you get to eat it? And do you do a lot of the cooking that you actually both eat?

When I was growing up, my mother wasn't much of a cook, but she had two like fantastic dishes that she made. And I always look forward to those. But Monday nights, I'd almost be in tears because Mondays are bad enough when you're going to school. And she'd sometimes make broiled mackerel, which is a very bitter fish, especially when you're a kid. Yeah. And with like canned string beans. Oh, God.

And I'd nearly be in tears. Later in the week, the food got better. So I'm wondering with each of you, the recipes in your book look absolutely sumptuous. But were there meals that you had that nearly brought you to tears when you were growing up? Oh, my God.

Oh, no water? You're supposed to add a can of water.

Oh, I had that once at my aunt's house.
