In this week’s episode, Sammy brings us deep into the forest to tell the tale of everyone’s favorite wicked witch: Baba Yaga. As the Vieille de Ferme is poured, the ladies reminisce about the renaissance faire, debate Disney princess hair colors, and create a new football chant. Grab the nearest récolte and find the house with bones out front, Ladies Who Have Chicken Legs will have you skipping through the woods in no time.
