CHG Favorites of the Week

Food Blog of the Week
Chow Mama
Imagine a kid food site that didn’t fall back on fish sticks or chicken fingers, and you’ve got Chow Mama. An attractive, simple design paired with good-lookin’ recipes make it fun to flip through, even from the non-moms among us. And if that’s not enough, check the mission statement: “Being a ChowMama (and ChowPapa!) is all about feeding your family delicious and nutritious foods that keep the whole family happy and healthy. Because the foods we feed our children when they’re little help shape their eating habits for life.” Cheers!

Food Comedy of the Week
“Sur La Table” from South Park
Parker and Stone milk the kitchen store’s gratuitously French pronunciation for all it’s worth. Hilare! (Thanks to Eat Me Daily for the link.)



Food Quote of the Week
“There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread.” - Mahatma Gandhi

Food Movie Clip of the Week
The food fight scene from Animal House
Yes, it’s dubbed in Italian. But did that matter when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? No! So much of the genius lies in John Belushi’s facial expressions, it works anyway.



Totally Unrelated Extra Special Bonus of the Week
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince Trailer
EEEE! It’s weird to think that a generation of children is going to grow up SCARED TO DEATH of Ralph Fiennes. Granted, he’s played a sleazy drug addict, a mental patient, a serial killer, the worst Nazi ever, and now Lord Voldemort, but … um … okay, I had a point here somewhere.
