0:12.0	Mom, what's for dinner?
0:14.0	Chop, sizzle, done.
0:17.0	Hello Fresh can't slow life down, but it makes bringing everyone together around the table a whole lot easier.

0:27.6	Hello. Hey, everybody. This is Chad Daniels, and you have landed in the middle of somewhere.
0:48.3	Hello. How are you? Thank you for coming back. Although there are gray skies in Minnesota, I have blue skies in my heart
0:55.3	because I'm watching, Si eat a cookie, question mark. Across for me, as always, let's talk to him.
1:03.5	He's here. It's Cyrus Amundsen. It is a cookie, and I think we should leave it at that,
