John Krasinski has been keeping spirits high with his online series "Some Good News," or "SGN," that outlines heartwarming stories going on in the world during the ongoing pandemic. The latest episode of his series ended with a potluck, where viewers submitted family recipes and then were invited on the show. What they didn't see coming is the other celebrities that would surprise them.
Episode five of Some Good News talked all about different food-related stories going on in the world like how to donate, local restaurants helping out their communities, and more. The second half of the show was called the "SGN Potluck" and John asked people to submit their favorite recipes, but to make them he had to call in some backup.
"Being one of the least capable chefs on the planet, I really needed some help," he said. John invited four viewers that submitted recipes to to the show, but they had no idea who else would be joining them.
First, there was Nana, who submitted her recipe for a very strong Quarantini that used both vanilla and orange vodka. Of course, it was only right that John brought in another lovable internet mixologist...none other than Stanley Tucci.
Then Sarah, who sent in her family's pierogi recipe. To make them, John called upon someone a little more experienced in the kitchen, our girl Martha Stewart. Shannon sent in a saucy chicken dish and was surprised with David Chang and finally Penny's sloppy joe recipe got her a virtual visit from Guy Fieri.
Each viewer was shocked not only by meeting the celebrities, but John also passed on the recipes so that the stars could make the recipes for themselves. Stanley loved Nana's Quarantini, Martha said they "drank a lot of vodka" in Sarah's honor while eating the pierogis, David Chang's wife called Shannon's meal her favorite food of quarantine, and Guy enjoyed giving Penny's sloppy joes the stamp of approval.
The entire video is truly a heartwarming thing, and I highly suggest you take a couple moments out of your day to watch it for yourself. Fair warning, though, it'll probably make you a little hungry...
