\u201cEvery time we went to a seafood restaurant, I would say, \u2018Mom, can I take the empty clam, mussel and lobster shells home with me and put them in the bathtub?\u2019<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd after rinsing them of marinara sauce, she would let me put them in the bathtub, and I would get in with them and just enjoy that.\u201d<\/p>\n
When Poehler asked about her motivations for living away from the city, McKinnon admitted her decision was partly rooted in a fear of the future.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cI think the reason I\u2019ve done it is that I believe very much that we are doomed.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy goal is surviving the apocalypse [for] four days. If I can make it to four, oh mama, I will have achieved something.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Ghostbusters actor described how she now spends her time growing food and woodworking on her property.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cI think it\u2019s in my genes because my grandfather was a woodworker, my father was an architect.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love the practicality of, you can manipulate this material and then you can spend time in it. How crazy is that?<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can sit on it. I love to sit on things, I do \u2026 to say I will sleep on what I did today.\u201d<\/p>\n
McKinnon added she has already built her own table, but admitted that the result was far from perfect.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat you do, just kind of put it up inside the home anyways, and I have absolutely decreased the property value of the house with my shoddy work.\u201d<\/p>\n
She also told Poehler she intends to add to her growing list of survival skills.<\/p>\n
Listing plumbing and electrical work as next on her list, she added: \u201cI would like to acquire all of those skills that can make a home function for four days.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cEvery time we went to a seafood restaurant, I would say, \u2018Mom, can I take the empty clam,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":111406,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[16891,95,79752,2199,4731,156,2082,3011,5267,70437,2517,424,4960,79750,79751,111,139,2551,69,3175,1534,16708,2737,6639,57816,40749],"class_list":["post-111405","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-able","tag-and","tag-apocalypse","tag-city","tag-days","tag-entertainment","tag-for","tag-four","tag-goal","tag-homestead","tag-kate","tag-life","tag-live","tag-mckinnon","tag-mckinnons","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-night","tag-nz","tag-rural","tag-saturday","tag-skills","tag-star","tag-survival","tag-survive","tag-swaps"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/111405","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=111405"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/111405\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/111406"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=111405"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=111405"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=111405"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
