From our series with A24 Films No images? Click here Dinner and a MovieDinner and a movie? No, we're not asking you on a date (sorry!). We're here to catch you up on our latest partnership with A24. We've all been finding ourselves with extra time these days, and that time is often spent getting cozy, watching movies, and eating. So, we created some delicious themed menus to pair with seven of A24's most popular films. You'll find a Chinese feast for the 2019 film The Farewell, a surf and turf extravaganza for The Lighthouse, and a full Swedish spread to enjoy while watching Midsommar. Check out the menus below—and enjoy the show! Food plays an essential role in Lulu Wang’s semi-autobiographical film. Enjoy a full Chinese feast that includes dumplings, egg drop soup, and more. A Passover seder menu that will certainly be more enjoyable than the one featured in the film. Eggs, bacon, pancakes, and ice cream for dessert! A meal for your inner child. The psychodrama calls for lobster, steak, and a cocktail aptly named The Suffering Bastard. The menu includes a "Chef’s Special," pollo a la plancha to eat alongside the Academy Award winning film. For those brave enough to eat while watching, you'll find gravlax, meatballs, and a golden olive oil cake on the menu. The title might as well be "Dude, Where's My Food?" as Ramy explores his spiritual and culinary identity as an Egyptian American. Make ful medames, baba ganoush, and fresh pita. |

Kid-friendly Mother's Day brunch ideas
Get the whole family involved No images? Click here Kid-Friendly Recipes for a Mother's Day Brunch at HomeYou probably won't be going out to a restaurant this Mother's Day, but that just means it's a perfect excuse to make brunch for Mom at home. This set of recipes—including standards like French toast, vanilla-scented waffles, plush pancakes, fluffy scrambled eggs, and crispy bacon—was compiled with an eye for simplicity. Many of these main courses, sweets, and sides, like the coffee cake and cinnamon rolls, come together easily in one bowl, making them ideal projects to tackle with kids. Others, like the cream biscuits, scrambled eggs, and banana-peanut butter oatmeal, can be cooked and on the table in under 30 minutes, so they're perfect for lazy, sleepy weekend mornings. Eggs en cocotte with tomatoes and goat cheese and the German apple pancake might sound and look fancy, but they're composed of techniques that even a toddler can help with. A little bit of planning ahead will ensure brunch is on the table and ready for Mom next Sunday morning—whether she likes to sleep in or not. |

From Our Partner: You're Invited to CHI-CHI’S® Salsa Virtual Fiesta
Sponsored We love Cinco de Mayo. An excuse to eat unlimited chips, salsa, and guac? Who wouldn't? But this year, we're celebrating a little bit differently. Since many of us are self-isolating, our gatherings will need to be virtual—but thanks to the makers of CHI-CHI’S® products, that doesn't mean they won't be festive. Here’s how it works: throughout the day on May 5, the company has arranged for a mariachi band from Mariachi Heritage Foundation to continually play in a virtual celebration. Fans can have the chance to experience a private 30-minute mariachi session via Zoom, and can sign up for their chance for one of the slots by visiting here. (Hurry, the chance to sign-up ends today at 6 p.m. ET). At the end of the day, there will be a live, virtual happy hour concert from 7-8 p.m. ET where fans from across the nation can enjoy mariachi together on YouTube while eating and fiesta-ing to their hearts’ content.
