My daughter and I have started a new Mommy/Daughter “bonding time” tradition! We like to walk the Food Network and many of their awesome cooking shows together. It’s “grown up tv” that is safe, most of the time, for children! My daughter is 7, but most days you would think she was going on 17 so any opportunity to feel like a “big girl” is well received by her.
It’s challenging for us to find time alone together to watch these shows, so when her brother finally nods off to sleep at night, we often find ourselves sneaking into my room to catch 20 minutes of a show. We are lucky to have a PVR so I can tape our favourites, but then we have to watch them on the main family tv.
The other day, my son woke up after nodding off and I don’t know what posessed him to come downstairs during this Mommy/Daughter time, but he did. As an aside, he never comes downstairs at night….NEVER! Well, let me tell you…the ugly green monster did rear its head and we ended up watching 5 minutes of a show together and then off to bed for everyone.
Rachel Ray is one of those tv show hosts that I do enjoy watching. I find her entertaining and her meals are often easy for me to try out!
This is one show that I am actually looking forward to! It premieres on Sunday, January 6th at 9pm ET/PT.
