Chai Kombucha, Ecstatic Pop and Really Incredible Films (For Free!)
It's the season finale of Highly Enthused!
This is it! This is the end.. of Season One of Highly Enthused. Don’t cry though, we’ll be back soon, and in the meantime you’ve still got this week’s episode to get you through!
This week we share two of our favourite recipes: one for solo diners short on time; and one for those of you who want a Sunday project that’ll fog up your glasses with ‘fragrant steam’. SoRo shares some of her favourite ‘ecstatic pop’ for all those moody walks she’s been taking, as well as her current makeup trick for extending her ‘Sicilian Glow’ as long as possible. SoMo is exploring the world of high-end kombucha and queuing up 6 episodes of her new favourite podcast (you can listen to it while you wait for us to come back).
