- We're back with Jen and Kristin
from the imomsohard podcast.
And my band brought their mamas with them today.
Hi y'all, how you doing?
(clapping) - Woo.
- So I've loved getting to learn more
about people I've worked with for so many years.
Kyle's mom, Ruby, is in the big screen right now.
So Ruby, I have to ask.
What was Kyle like as a kid?
- Oh Lord.
(everyone laughing)
- Kyle was perfect.
- There we go, and were done, that's it.
- Lies and deception. (laughs)
- No, Kyle was, as he is now,
he was kind of a,
nah, he wasn't a germophobe, but he liked being clean.
He didn't like his hands being dirty.
And so he uses an ordinate amount of paper towels.
So if he were eating ribs
with each bite he had to get a new paper towel.
- Oh my, Kyle.
Kyle is my son, that's my son
- [Kyle] Remy does that?
- Remy does that.
- I still do that
- I talked to his wife this morning
and she was saying he freaks out
when they're low on paper towels,
because he still like to do that.
And then when he was about 12,
kind of, I don't know, you can chime in.
He didn't like to drink after anybody else.
- Me neither. - So, especially the kids.
And you know backwashers. - Backwash.
So Kyle develop what he calls the valve method.
And he can describe that.
- What does that mean?
- If you close your mouth as the water is going in
and then it seals,
and so no water goes back into the bottle.
- Oh my Gosh.
- [Ruby] He has perfected it.
- What just happened?
- Yeah, the valve method, it's--
- No, no, no.
That's like "Fetch" for "Mean Girls",
it's not gonna happen, it's not gonna catch.
It's not gonna be like a method everyone uses, Kyle.
- I got over this one.
(laughing)
- Hey, I'm with you on the backwash,
which I still do this day,
I don't drink after people, that's nasty.
Where's your mouth been? - Exactly.
- And you just backwash in my cup?
No, thank you.
Yeah, I'm with you, I'm weird with that one too.
Thank you so much, Ruby, for spilling the beans.
(everyone laughing)
- Love you mom. - You're welcome.
- All right. - Love you Kyle.
All right, let's face it, moms never have it easy y'all.
So, this Mother's Day you deserve a break
and a delicious brunch.
Even if you're the only one at home who knows how to cook.
Here to show us how to make a brunch fit for a queen.
Please welcome a friend of the show,
one of my friends as well, Danielle Kartes, give it up.
(everyone cheers)
- Thank you so much for having me.
- I love when you come.
- I love being here,
you're my girl. - All right.
- You guys, okay, I love this whole motherhood show.
This is really important.
First, number one, let's get down to business.
We are making a do-it-yourself Eggs Benedict Bar,
which is super fun.
So even if you've actually nobody at home
to make you a delicious breakfast,
you can make it yourself and that is absolutely okay.
I prefer it that way because my family can't cook.
(laughing)
And I'm like, move aside--
- I can't cook either, so I prefer you to show me how.
- This, here we go, here we go.
So we're actually gonna get started
making Blender Hollandaise.
And the girls over here
are just gonna be enjoying, because--
- Yeah, what table are y'all at right now?
- They get to just enjoy it.*
- The table we earned as mothers.
(laughing)
- Well, we earned it too, but we wanna serve you.
(indistinct)
Blender Hollandaise, darling.
This is so cool. - I've never done it.
- So, you can totally do it in your blender.
- What's in there right now?
- So you got four egg yolks and lemon juice
and then we actually also have hot butter.
- Oh, okay. - So dump your hot butter in.
- All of it, oh men. - The whole thing.
It's Mother's Day, you earned a dip in the butter pool.
(laughing)
- Okay, so then we?
- Okay, now literally just pulse it.
(blender buzzing)
There we go. - Okay.
- This is Hollandaise sauce,
you can spice it up with a little cayenne,
you can put salt and pepper, all that good kind of stuff.
We're not gonna do that
because we already have it made lovely.
Susan did such a good job.
- She did.
- So look at that.
This is your gorgeous Hollandaise sauce.
- [Kelly] Okay.
- The next thing we're gonna do
is actually build our delicious bennies.
So here you go.
Grab it at the grocery store.
Eggs, poached eggs are sort of tricky,
they can be really intimidating.
And then you're like have egg flour soup
with just water and eggs.
So skip that part and fry them, just fry your eggs.
- And one of those little circle things.
you know, I don't know if-- - Those are adorable.
- Those are great though.
- And they work, they totally work.
- [Kelly] 'Cause I can't do without it.
- They totally work.
Okay, so you my darling are gonna do this.
We're gonna put our egg on first.
Oh, actually, no, no, put your meat on first.
I like a little Canadian bacon.
These are all ready buttered and toasted for us.
- God, I love butter. - I like a little vegetables.
- Okay.
- You can skip it if you don't want them.
Okay, and I'm obsessed with, I'm obsessed with herbs.
I'm obsessed with dill. - Totally, me too.
- Me and dill.
- [Kelly] I'm really basic.
- No, see, that's okay.
- I'm so basic, I'm about basic just egg and cheese.
- There's nothing wrong with that.
Put your egg and cheese on, here.
Out of an act of solidarity I'll put some cheddar.
- Okay. - And I'm gonna double egg it.
So here, you got eggs,
I got two different kinds going on.
- I'm gonna double cheese it, watch this.
- Double cheese it, darling.
- Okay, hold on, wait, I can do this.
- And then shrimp, because, I don't know, I love shrimps.
Shrimps, put your shrimps on.
You guys, are you enjoying? What do you think about this--
- I'm sorry, you lost me at butter sauce in a blender.
- If you want it as a sandwich,
no, you can do whatever you want,
but I wouldn't make it a sandwich.
- I wouldn't either, that is a dumb idea.
- No, just break it, here, break it apart.
- Well now, I'm gonna make mine a sandwich.
- Okay, I was like, make it a sandwich.
Make it a sandwich. So here you go, this is the--
- You're doing it the right way.
- This is the piece to resist on,
this is the Butter Hollandaise sauce,
that you could basically
have a bath in. - Put it on there slowly.
- Slowly, see?
Look at that guys.
- It's like watching "Bridgerton".
(laughing)
- This is better than "Bridgerton",
I don't know (indistinct)
- Oh my God, so I wanna taste it.
I made a little Benedict sandwich.
- Yes.
- And then I'm gonna put some more herbs
because you know how I do.
Get into it.
It's so good, it's so good.
- That feel good. - And then,
you've got your mimosa too, which is so cute.
Make a little mimosa bar.
All the little syrups.
You know, you can get the like little,
you know, I'm talking about the nectars of juice nectars.
- Pop 'em with Prossecos
(indistinct) its in there. - Let's do it,
here's to mamas all around the world.
- Amen, woo, make yourself brunch,
love yourself and your body. (clapping)
- And for you fathers who are holding down mama as well.
- Yes, it's true.
And get your man in the kitchen.
If you've got a man, get him to work,
like do this.
- We try. - Oh my God that's good.

(laughing)
