Adventures in TV: Kid In a Candy Store

Chunk's dreams have come true! Food Network has come up with a new show called Kid In a Candy Store, a show that follows Adam Gertler across the country as he tastes sweets and treats.

It's pretty entertaining and definitely plays to those with a sweet tooth (Chunk for sure!). You could definitely have an adventure by visiting the places that Gertler goes to, or by having your own sweet adventure in your city.

Happy adventuring!

Adventures in TV: Bert the Conqueror

A nod to the Travel Channel for its new show Bert the Conqueror. This half hour show follows host, Bert Kreischer as he travels around the US looking for thrills and adventures. We like him because not only is he funny, but he's real. Instead of acting like something isn't scary, he actually screams like a little kid and will admit that he got the s*^! scared out of him. Some of his screams are even reminiscent of KJ on roller coasters, of which she is not a fan.

So if you haven't seen this show yet, check it out. If you aren't inspired to go find your adventure after seeing an episode....well, then, it sucks to be you!

Happy adventuring!

Adventures in TV: Cupcake Wars

Summer is upon us and that means new summer programming on TV. While scouring the networks to find something decent, we came across a new show on Food Network called Cupcake Wars. Similar to Chopped, this show pits four cupcake aficionados against one another in order to win $10,000 and have their cupcakes featured at some sort of celebrity event (thus far it's been George Lopez's charity golf tournament and Sumar the whale's 12th birthday at Sea World).

With brutal judges, wacky contestants, and an array of sugary sweets how can you go wrong? Check it out and see for yourself.

Happy adventuring!

Adventures in TV: LOST

One of our favorite TV shows is LOST. We've watched it from the very beginning, and this Sunday we'll say goodbye to it. It allowed as to have all sorts of adventures - adventures to the island, adventures to Hawaii, adventures with characters and others with the actors, adventures with friends (we had tons of LOST parties while living in Chicago), adventures in imagination.

Thanks for the great show and the great adventures!
