A New Tradition of Awesome
Published in Widow Holidays, Widow Kids, Widow Vids by chefswidow { 3 comments }
A new New Years Eve tradition began this year for the Widow family.
Punk Rock Biggie Smalls Gets Ready for the Bubbly!
In the time old tradition of looking back and figuring out what you will do different next year I have found that there is not much I will do differently. Maybe lose some weight. Do more yoga. Workout. Blah Blah Blah. But I did compile some old posts that I truly enjoyed. I hope you do as well!

While writing this list the Chef (who now stands over my shoulder when I write) told me I should compile a lit of how many posts I had about Ewan McGregor 2008 vs. 2007. Here you go honey!

Catcher’s smile rarely disappears, something I look forward to in ’09
****A moment of thanks to you my readers. I would never be able to do this on the daily if there was no YOU! Also to my amazing husband Jonathon. Starting a new year without you would be like starting a day without thumbs. I heart you. And to Catcher & Louisiana, I hope this new year brings you a new adventure each day. I hope that our laughs destroy any sadness we may encounter. My children, my life. My heart is yours.
Peace & War Bitches.
We had a spectacular Christmas week filled with friends and family, Festivus, and food.
We have certainly been blessed this year with so many new great friends and so many great times. The Chef’s last night at Cento was sad, fun, and enormously busy but we got to hang out with some of our favorite people, Mike & Liz, Julie & Steve, Roni & Kevin, Billy & Barbara (and Henry too!). We are a lucky family that seems to be getting bigger and bigger with each new venture the Chef & I take on. Life is good.
No,
Life is fucking awesome.
I hope that you & yours had a special Christmasukahwanza!!!
Cheers Bitches.
Happy Holidays!
Many many kisses to you & yours,
Chef’s Widow

The holiday season is upon us. TV has turned into a giant toy commercial. Walmart is a war zone. And all my son can talk about is this weird ass card game that I have never heard of. Tis the season.
In trying to spread education and respect for all I am putting forth my best effort to teach my kids about all holidays that occur in the next month. Let me tell you, it has NOT been a cake walk.
I have been taking books and books and books out of the library all year round that focus on different cultures, celebrations, and peoples. Now that holiday season is here I have made a serious effort (we’re talking 3 times a week library trips) to find the perfect books to inspire, educate, enlighten, and heighten interest in the boy. So far I have had no luck. The Hanukkah books are D-R-Y. I’m not Jewish so I don’t really know the staple books. But I know they can’t all be super boring. It’s the festival of lights man! The Kwanza books are ok, at least the ones I found, but I am renting them from a library in a town with a population of 20 African-Americans. Probably not 20, but not 20,000 either. The selection is slim. And the winter solcitice books, NON EXSISTENT. I’ve got Christmas covered, I think. We usually do The Night Before Christmas & follow up with The Nightmare Before Christmas. Although I don’t really have any books that explain the whole Jesus thing in a fun non boring & dry way. I guess I’m not covered.
SO…
I have decided to buy a holiday collection for our library (built of wine boxes) but I desperately need your help. Any suggestions pertaining to ALL holidays, cultures, astrological will be considered and appreciated!
***The first five readers to suggest a GREAT HOLIDAY BOOK will receive from me (and the Cuyahoga County Public Library) the award winning & beautiful illustrated Great Books For Kids 2008 book. Just make sure to leave me your email. Peace & War.
****CONGRATS MICHELLE V!
