Following Volger’s guidance, you may start out with a few Smoky Glazed Pistachios for crunch and add some zesty Orange & Mustard Marinated Asparagus with a side of Honey Pickled Shallots. Craving something creamy? Try a Toasted Walnut and Feta Dip or Gingery Green Tahini with homemade Nut & Seed Crackers or crudités. The possibilities are endless. Best of all, many of these bites can be made ahead and stored in the fridge or pantry for easy assembly.

In this delightful children’s picture book, Jilly is a little girl who loves Halloween because of all the candy. She can’t wait to go trick-or-treating and to attend her class Halloween party. She loves the holiday so much that she can’t stop thinking about it. In the time leading up to her class party, Jilly notices that her teacher is acting strange. He keeps talking about candy and snacks, and every time he does, she thinks his eyes start to get a little green glow. At snack time, her teacher appears to turn into a snack eating machine, eating all the kids’ snacks. His voice sounds robotic and his eyes now unmistakably glow an eerie green every time he eats someone’s snack. Jilly thinks he’s not her teacher Mr. Spack anymore, but Mr. Snack, an alien from a treat-deprived planet in another galaxy. When snack time is over, everything seems to go back to normal and Jilly begins to wonder whether it really happened or if she just dreamed the whole thing.
Uncovers the class and race dimensions of the "cupcake wars" In the wake of school-lunch reform debates, heated classroom cupcake wars, and concerns over childhood obesity, the diet of American children has become a “crisis” and the cause of much anxiety among parents. Many food-conscious parents are well educated, progressive and white, and while they may explicitly value race and class diversity, they also worry about less educated or less well-off parents offering their children food that is unhealthy. Jennifer Patico embedded herself in an urban Atlanta charter school community, spending time at school events, after-school meetings, school lunchrooms, and private homes. Drawing on interviews and ethnographic observation, she details the dilemma for parents stuck between a commitment to social inclusion and a desire for control of their children’s eating. Ultimately, Patico argues that the attitudes of middle-class parents toward food reflect an underlying neoliberal capitalist ethic, in which their need to cultivate proper food consumption for their children can actually work to reinforce class privilege and exclusion. Listening closely to adults' and children's food concerns, The Trouble with Snack Time explores those unintended effects and suggests how the "crisis" of children’s food might be reimagined toward different ends.
