This seems familiar!

Even though me updating my blog does NOT seem familiar at this point…
I got around to watching Sunday’s Family Guy and realized with glee that Peter and the boys’ Quahog Men’s Club was a clear homage to the clubhouse in The Berenstain Bears’ No Girls Allowed. At one point Peter even said “No girls allowed.” Get it?
Yay!
My favorite BB book, though, is obvs The Berenstain Bears and Too Much Junk Food. I loved how the candy they ate had no labels and came in clear plastic cases, like drugs. And would you look at the height Brother Bear is getting on his candy pour? Totally impressive. The supermarket scene (not pictured, though I would really like to do a page-by-page commentary on this book so I should find a copy) is also killer. Did you guys know I love edible crap?

That was my favorite too. I loved that effin book, and my Mom made me read it all the time. I love how quickly they make changes, it’s like a commercial, but then also, they do that in a lot of books. I love that too.
