The Raconteur hosts a monthly Transatlantic Web Cam Jam session with a Reading, England pub called The Retreat. At last month's session, the mother of this year's Best Actress winner was in attendance at the Reading pub. From The Raconteur:
If you watched the Oscars this Sunday, you heard Best Actress winner Kate Winslet mention this very same pub and the pickling contest her mother recently won there. Indeed, in last month's Raconteur jam session Kate's mom, Sally Winslet (now known as the Queen of Shallots), was in the foreground eating bangers. No kidding.
That's pretty cool. The next
Jam is this Sunday, March 1 at 11:00AM.
no.
That is hilarious! Maybe she'll show up on the live feed this weekend--we should get her winning recipe!
