One thing that was always a huge hit in my home growing up was “puppy chow”… also known as Muddy Buddies. Basically, Chex cereal covered in peanut butter, chocolate and powdered sugar.

Alllriiight!! Bob’s Burgers’ new season premiered last night and I was a big fan. I’m always a big fan. That show is the best thing Fox does right now. H. Jon Benjamin can do no wrong and the supporting cast is out-of-this-world-crazy. I could not pass up an opportunity to honor the show with some…
