“If the Ted Lasso way is wrong, it’s hard to imagine being right”- Trent Crim, The Independent. This post is dedicated to all of the Ted Lasso fans out there. As a character one of my all time favorite shows, Ted Lasso’s Trent Crim perfectly depicts my feelings about this Apple TV Plus series dedicated to radical kindness. I couldn’t think of something the world needs more at the moment, than a dose of radical kindness. I’m not a TV-show critic or reviewer, so I promise to stay in my lane of gluten free goodies. The inspiration for this post 100% comes from my new-found love of Coach Lasso and the UFC Richmond team. Early in season 1 Ted begins a tradition called ” Biscuits with the Boss” where he brings his boss fresh, homemade, biscuits every morning. Rebecca Welton, Ted’s boss, seemingly adores these biscuits and they look delicious. Naturally, I decided to make these iconic biscuits gluten free. I used the following recipe (with a gluten free flour substitution of course): https://www.today.com/food/here-s-official-ted-lasso-biscuit-recipe-t230627 . I’ve shared these tasty treats with many people that I hold dear and the reviews are in: “Pure buttery deliciousness,” “Melt in your mouth,” and “The perfect balance of traditional shortbread consistency without being too dry.” The overarching theme is that I will most definitely be making these again soon. They are a shortbread cookie, as we would say here in the States, that pair beautifully with tea, coffee, matcha, or hot chocolate. I made them Friday night in order to celebrate the new weekly episode being released. I munched on them while immersed in Coach Beard’s night on the town. To keep my Ted Lasso weekend rolling, I thought it appropriate to attend my first ever Soccer match. I went to an MN-UFC Loons game and had a blast! After this weekend I’m becoming more and more of a soccer fan. I can’t wait for next Friday’s episode to be released and to make more Ted Lasso biscuits soon. That’s all for me today, I challenge you to be radically kind to someone-even if that someone is yourself.
Until next time,
Brynn 💖
