00:01:33oh
00:01:51Oh, well, if it isn't my favorite cookbook author,
00:01:57come in, come in.
00:01:59So, Julia, the cookbook is terrific.
00:02:03And everything's coming along on schedule.
00:02:05Well done.
00:02:06That's actually why I wanted to meet today.
00:02:08Go on.
00:02:09Well, we've got just about every type of Christmas dessert
00:02:12you can imagine in the book.
00:02:13Those homemade candy canes from that Texan bakery are gonna make me
00:02:16a popular mama in a couple of weeks.
00:02:18Good. I'm glad.
00:02:21There's just one tiny problem.
00:02:23I still haven't found the gingerbread yet.
00:02:27Hmm. Well, I think we have enough to publish with everything you've got here, don't you?
00:02:34I just don't feel like the book will feel complete without including the perfect cookies.
00:02:40You have a whole chapter on Christmas cookies.
00:02:42We do.
00:02:43But as you know, this book is a tribute to my mom.
00:02:46Every Christmas we would make gingerbread together.
00:02:48It was our thing.
00:02:49I see.
00:02:50I can't tell you how many times I tried to recreate the recipe.
00:02:54Not to mention the amount of bakeries I visited to sample different kinds of gingerbread.
00:02:58But nothing has ever quite tasted like my mom's.
00:03:01Yet.
00:03:02Yet?
00:03:03I'm just trying one last thing.
00:03:05We're cutting it close as is, Julia.
00:03:07Your book is scheduled to go to print.
00:03:11How much longer do you think you'll need?
00:03:12Do you think you could give me a couple more weeks?
00:03:16I put out some ads across the country asking for people to send me their submissions.
00:03:20Submissions?
00:03:21From the public?
00:03:22I thought you were contacting restaurants and bakers directly.
00:03:25I already tried that.
00:03:29Whoever sends me the best gingerbread will be featured in my cookbook.
00:03:33I've already got a ton of responses.
00:03:35Just no standouts yet.
00:03:38That layout's already been finalized.
00:03:44But I'll see if I can get a short extension.
00:03:48Oh, thank you.
00:03:49No promises though.
00:03:50And if you don't find the gingerbread recipe by then, we'll have to publish without it.
00:03:54Either way.
00:03:55Understood?
00:03:56I'll keep you posted.
00:03:57I promise.
00:04:10A twist on the usual gingerbread.
00:04:13Okay.
00:04:20Too much, Anise.
00:04:22Not bad though.
00:04:25Hey, how'd the meeting with your publisher go?
00:04:28I need to find the recipe.
00:04:30And fast.
00:04:32I'm gonna call it a night and get a fresh start tomorrow.
00:04:35Wait, before you go, this came in this morning from Homestead Baked Goods.
00:04:41How about we try one more?
00:04:44Okay.
00:04:58Good?
00:04:59Better than good.
00:05:02Adrian.
00:05:03This is it.
00:05:04This is the cookie.
00:05:07Where is Hampton Grove?
00:05:09Okay.
00:05:10It's a two hour drive.
00:05:11It's in Wisconsin.
00:05:12Oh.
00:05:13I'll phone them tomorrow.
00:05:15I can't leave you guys here.
00:05:17Actually, you can.
00:05:18You've been teaching me how to steer the ship for the last year.
00:05:21If I'm never gonna do it on my own, what's all the training for?
00:05:23And after all this searching, don't you want to meet this baker in person?
00:05:28All right.
00:05:29Have you ever taken a vacation?
00:05:31No.
00:05:32Have you ever called in sick?
00:05:35Also no.
00:05:36And you have enough time to go and come back before Christmas.
00:05:39Hmm.
00:05:41Okay.
00:05:43Hampton Grove, Wisconsin.
00:05:44Here I come.
00:05:51There you go.
00:05:52I'll go.
00:05:56I'll go on.
00:06:02I'll go.
00:06:04I'll go.
00:06:05You, the door.
00:06:07I'll go.
00:06:25Oh, good morning, Christopher.
00:06:28Abby, get to school okay?
00:06:29Just dropped her off.
00:06:31You know, Mom, you don't have to come in each morning and do this if you don't want to.
00:06:35I'm always happy to lend a hand to my favorite son.
00:06:40I'm your only son.
00:06:41Well, aren't you lucky then?
00:06:43And besides, you don't have to be so stubborn that you have to do everything yourself.
00:06:48Gee, I wonder where I learned to be stubborn from.
00:06:50Well, you must have gotten that from your father.
00:06:54So that means I got all of my good qualities from you, right?
00:06:57Well, sugar and spice and everything nice, that's what mothers are made of.
00:07:03Listen, appreciate the help.
00:07:40Thanks for listening.
00:59:51You're welcome.

01:01:36I think I was wrong.
01:01:39I don't know.
01:01:41I just have to look at her.
01:01:43I think it's a bit of a thought to do.
01:01:48I think it's a bit of a thought to do.
01:01:50How are you doing?
01:01:55I think it's a bit of a thought to do.

01:02:03But I don't know.
01:02:04You can't do.
01:02:05I think it's a bit of a thought to do.
