Hosts Amanda Barker and Marco Timpano kick off this episode of The Insomnia Project with a delightful surprise: an unexpected snow day on April 2nd! They reminisce about the sheer, unadulterated joy of snow days as children, recalling the excitement of building snow forts and sledding down hills, a stark contrast to the slightly less magical adult experience of a late-season snowfall. Their conversation meanders through urban observations, pausing to appreciate the often-overlooked presence of fire hydrants and their potential for artistic interpretation. Amanda and Marco then shine a spotlight on the wonderful art of Michelle Miracle, encouraging listeners to explore her unique style.

The episode takes a culinary turn as they delve into a spirited debate over the merits of olives and capers, discussing their distinct flavors and culinary applications. This leads to a mouthwatering discussion about a memorable journey to Tottenham, Ontario, in pursuit of the perfect cannoli. They vividly describe the allure of authentic cannoli and the charm of the small town, emphasizing the importance of comfort food during the lingering cold. The conversation weaves in practical tips for staying warm during the unexpected snow, highlighting the comfort of cozy blankets and hot beverages. Amanda and Marco conclude the episode by thanking listeners for joining them on this snowy, cannoli-fueled adventure, urging them to share their own snow day memories and comfort food favorites on social media. They remind listeners to check out Michelle Miracle's art and, of course, to try and get some sleep. Until next time, from Amanda and Marco, good night!
