Monica’s Musings: The Mythical Cookbook

The Mythical Cookbook by Josh Scherer

“Food has never, in the history of the world, been solely about fueling the body. Food is culture, it is tradition, and above all, it is pure freakin’ happiness on a plate.
― Josh Scherer, The Mythical Cookbook

Summary: From the larger-than-life team behind the internet’s most-watched daily show, Good Mythical Morning , and culinary spinoff, Mythical Kitchen , a one-of-a-kind cookbook with 100 recipes for living a Mythical, and delicious, life. When it comes to food—the good, the gooder, and the shockingly not un-good—Mythical Chef Josh, Rhett & Link, and the Mythical Kitcheneers have just about done it all. They’ve taste-tested, mythbusted, and dreamed up the most inventive, delicious, and ridiculous foods imaginable, all for your eyeballs to eat on-screen.

But, since your mouth does a much better job of eating than your eyeballs, this flavor-packed cookbook is bringing the best of the Mythical extended universe into your kitchen. From breakfast to dessert and everything in between, inside these pages you’ll find fan favorites and new inspirations. Filled with one-of-a-kind recipes, profound life advice, candid photos, and at least one weird story about an angry toaster that’s come to life, The Mythical Cookbook will help you cook deliciously, eat happily, and live Mythically. And have no fear while their on-screen creations push food to the limits, the recipes in this book are delicious and doable for real life in real kitchens. Bring extra napkins to the table—you’ll need them.

My Opinion: Recently, I have fallen back into the world of Good Mythical Morning. While I was on maternity leave, you could walk into my home any time of the day to see Rhett and Link on my TV, keeping me company. Over the last three months, I have binged the show to the point where I know the crew by name! Safe to say, I was excited to get my hands on The Mythical Cookbook.

I have found such fun recipes like fruity pebble pancakes, bacon cheeseburger lasagna, Doritos locos calzone, and so many more! Not only does this cookbook have unconventional recipes, it is very aesthetically pleasing! Overall, this is a cookbook that is useful and fun. I might have to buy a copy to keep in my kitchen.

YouTube: Good Mythical Morning

Is there anything better than watching two grown men who have been best friends literally their entire lives be creative, silly, and ridiculous together? Nope. Good Mythical Morning is one of the longest running YouTube channels and for good reason. Rhett & Link have created a brand that I love. Their show is feel-good, laughter-inducing, usually-wholesome good stuff.

Podcast: Ronstadt

I usually listen to podcasts about running or Rhett & Link’s podcast Ear Biscuits, so this was a new adventure for me. Ronstadt stars Rhett and Link. It is scripted and uses immersive audio. The story line is great for this time of year…action-packed, a little scary, with a touch of mystery. It reminded me of old books on tape that I used to listen to as a child. The immersive audio can be a bit intense. I was listening to it while doing yard work outside and got spooked and truly believed someone was right behind me!

Game: Pokemon Go

Yep…people still play this game. And to be honest, it’s better than it was in the beginning. During the school and work shut down last year, my family started playing it anew. We had a route around our neighborhood mapped out where we could hit up at least a dozen pokestops and 4 gyms. It got us outside and kept us sane together.

Book: Enola Holmes series by Nancy Springer

I read these books shortly before the Netflix movie came out. In true librarian fashion, I believe the books to be superior. The story is a fun twist on the Sherlock Holmes universe with the addition of a much younger sister who shares the Holmes affinity for mystery and crime solving. There are seven books in total with more potentially on the horizon. The popularity of the movie invited Springer to write the seventh book after an 11-year hiatus from the series.

Hobbies: Fall Running

Fall running has to be just about my favorite thing in the entire world. The cool mornings are perfect for picking up the pace and enjoying the peace and quiet before the start of a busy day. There are several free apps you can use to track runs. I typically wear a Garmin, but MapMyRun and Strava are good free options.
