Senior Editor—Culture Briony Smith hasn't cooked in six years. SIX YEARS. That's real sick, you guys. So, for the season two premiere of Briony's Teeny-Tiny Talk Show, she decided to test whether a simple, succulent recipe from the new Gwyneth Paltrow book It's All Easy was REALLY all that easy for a chud cook like herself. Since Briony's kitchen is a truly terrifying place (gaze upon the freezer filled with clothes in horror!), she headed to the v. v. chic Chatelaine Kitchen to try her hand at making actual human food with her very own hands. Can she make it through the whole ordeal without crying? Watch and find out!
