When food and parenting collide

2 blog posts in the last 2 days? I know what all 3 of my readers must be thinking.... What, after the misadventures of being alone with the 5boyz for a week, could be happening?? Nothing really. I worked overnight last night in the OC and am catching up on the dozens of blogs I eyeball whilst waiting for my ride home. Most are geeky things related to work, some are like yours - things that are interesting.

I love the snarky Anthony Bourdain. I think his writing style is a 10 out of 10. I stumbled across his TV show "No reservations" a few years ago in a hotel room. I love his combined take on travel & food. Unlike so many of the "one trick" shows on cable his content varies from show to show. One episode might be in an large metropolis where he's seeing sights and eating both local and haute cuisine. The next could be in the a remote jungle where the closest thing to main course protein is the beetle he just stepped on.

He's recently had a daughter and folded her (and his parenting experiences) into his blog posts. In the post titled "For Parents Only", he's put aside food and given his take on children's programming. Hysterical and dead on. Parents be warned: Mr. Bourdain is for us only. No underage readers please.

When you're done watching Nick or Noggin today, set the DVR for "No Reservations". Old epsidoes can be found online. Tow of my favorites are the one of the Pacific Northwest (natch) and any one where he visits Spain. If you watch one, you might be a repeat viewer. I'm hoping for a full on food/parenting crossover blog. These are, after all, a few of my favorite things.
