Ep.10 | Coconut Cake | Little Miss Sunshine (2006)
#010 - This week... I reveal a family recipe for my mom's Coconut Cake.
We devour pretty much the entire cake (mostly off camera) and chat about how my mom may have forgotten this recipe anyway. We take breaks from eating only to enjoy a great dark comedy that is 2006's Little Miss Sunshine. A story about a family adventure, coming of age, and dealing with some dark subjects in a hilarious manner.
Sit back, grab some munchies and enjoy the show!

Ep.9 | Coxinhas | The Princess Bride (1987)
#009 - We had some computer issues, BUT we're catching back up with a wonderful traditional Brazilian street food.
We cook up some Brazilian Coxinhas on this episode, a great finger food from my motherland. We pair these chicken doughballs with a classic movie. 1987's The Princess Bride is not only a great romantic fantasy, but it also has something for every type of viewer!

Ep.8 | Cod Fritters | Silver Linings Playbook (2012)
#008 - Welcome Back Mother Munchers! In this week's date here on Married with Munchies and Movies, we recoup from last week's lovefest.
We stink up our house a bit cooking cod for "bolinhos de bacalhau" (a.k.a. Cod Fritters). For our movie this week we watched 2012's Sliver Lining Playbook; a refreshing romantic comedy with diagnosed crazy character, brutally honest truth bombs, and also some romance that's just bareable enough. Oh make sure you have some lemon juice and hot sauce for the fritters!
Sit back, grab some munchies and enjoy the show!

Ep.6 | Feijoada | Rio (2011)
Ep. #006- Welcome back Mother Munchers! February is the Brazilian month of Carnaval and we are celebrating Brazilian cuisine all month long!
Our movie this week may not be Brazilian per se, but it sure does show Brazil in a different, animated light. 2011's Rio tells the adventure of an indoor pet venturing out into a world he is no longer a part of (since he is an indoor pet). One of the few newer animated films I can still stomach multiple watches, this one if sure looking to pair well with our delicious Feijoada (a.k.a. Brazilian black bean and meats stew).

Ep.4 | Shrimp Bisque | There's Something About Mary (1998)
Ep. #004 - Welcome back, munchers! We have a nice savory shrimp dish for you this week!
The fourth week in this chilly January brings us 1998's There's Something About Mary. Another romcom, but one that I would actually recommend for anyone wanting to enjoy a good movie. Ben Stiller and Cameron Diaz really make this a different type of romantic comedy.

Ep.3 | Strawberry Ice Cream | La La Land (2016)
Ep. #003 - Welcome back, munchers! We have a sweet treat for you this week!
The third week in this chilly January brings us 2016's La La Land. And I get to feel things about a musical. To ice over some of the pain, thank goodness there is a creamy, chilly strawberry treat to ease my internal pain. Although the film was well received by the masses, I think I prefer the ice cream this week!
