Mixed Grill
4 medium poblano chiles
2 medium red bell peppers
3 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed,
and cut into 1/2-inch rounds
12 scallions, with green tops intact, trimmed*
4 medium ears corn, husked, silks removed,
cut into 2-inch rounds
1/2 small pineapple, trimmed and cut
into 1/2-inch rounds, coated with oil
18 corn tortillas
2 Mexican limes, cut into wedges
2 cups fresh tomato salsa
Prepare a charcoal grill, allowing the coals to burn until ash-covered with some red still glowing through.
Place chiles and bell peppers in the center of the grill rack directly above the coals and cook for 20 to 25 minutes, turning once or twice, until charred all around. Remove and let cool. Peel and seed all the peppers. Slice into 1/4-inch strips and transfer to a platter. Set aside.
While the peppers char on the grill, arrange sweet potato slices on the rack around the edges of the fire, not directly over the heat. Grill for 15 to 20 minutes, turning once, until golden on both sides and cooked through. Transfer to the platter.
Pace onions in the center of the grill with the bulbs facing in and the tops facing out. Place corn pieces between the onions wherever you find room for them, but not directly over the coals. Grill onions and corn, turning once, until the onions are singed, but not burned, and the corn is tender, about 12 to 15 minutes. When done, transfer the onions and corn to the platter with the other vegetables.
When there is room on the grill rack, add pineapple slices, slightly to the edge of the coals — not directly over them. Cook, turning once, 6 to 8 minutes, or until the slices are somewhat soft and nicely charred but still moist. Transfer to the platter.
Place tortillas on the grill and lightly toast on both sides, about 4 minutes altogether.
Arrange all vegetables on a serving platter and pour the collected juices from the kitchen platter over the top. Tuck lime wedges in and around the vegetables. Serve immediately, accompanied by tortillas and salsa on the side.
* Leeks may be substituted for the scallions.

Blue's Clues - Blue's Big Musical MovieView This Product at AmazonBlue bounds into her first feature-length film ready to sing. She gets sidetracked along the way, of course, but that's part of the brilliant
Blue's Clues formula. Each half-hour TV show presents engaging, easy-to-grasp mini-mysteries that are within toddlers' reach. This time Blue; her huge-eyed, slightly loopy human companion, Steve; and their cadre of talking-object friends are scurrying around, preparing for a backyard music show that day. Everybody picks a number to perform; Blue's is a duet with Tickety Tock, but the clock contracts laryngitis. Who will be Blue's new partner? A game of Blue's Clues reveals the hardly reluctant replacement. The standard discovery of three clues followed by the usual wind-down song would add up to a colossal disappointment in a feature film, so substantial rounding-out is provided. Steve stumbles onto a keyboard inhabited by a note called G-Clef (the unmistakable voice of Ray Charles), who gives a tour of how to make a song. First you pick the notes, then you work on rhythm, then comes tempo, and, last but not least, "you've got to give it soul." This movie's themes include perseverance (Tickety Tock can't sing but finds a way to contribute anyway) and self-empowerment.
Blue's Big Musical Movie is a feast for little eyes and ears; the sets are so colorful they hurt grown-up eyes, and the songs--especially the one that gets the Charles treatment--are all sing-along-with-me winners.

From The Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. FrankweilerView This Product at AmazonLauren Bacall plays the title role (which is actually a supporting role) in this smart and snappy children's film adapted from the newberry Award-winning book. As Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, she's a very wealthy individual auctioning off a statue that may or may not have been sculpted by Michelangelo. The story quickly shifts over to Claudia (Jean Marie Barnwell), the middle child of the family. Of the three kids, she's the only girl, a straight-A student, and the one their mom relies on to help her with the chores. Claudia feels both taken for granted and neglected, so she devises a plan for her and her younger brother (who's got some money because he cheats at cards) to run away and have adventures. Her plan includes camping out in the Metropolitan Museum, which happens to be the same museum that bought the enigmatic sculpture. While the family searches for the missing kids, Claudia becomes obsessed with solving the secret of the statue. Is it or isn't it a genuine Michelangelo? Like Claudia herself, the script is smart, and it never condescends. The direction is equally smart, and the cast is universally good--which is saying something considering there are so many child actors involved. With messages like "feelings matter as much as learning" and "if you believe in yourself, then you don't need to cheat,"
From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler is an excellent way for a family to spend time together in front of the TV. The story was previously adapted for film in 1973, but this version was made for television in 1995.

Enchanted (Widescreen Edition)View This Product at AmazonLife is idyllic in the fairytale world where conflict is minimal and breaking into song solves every problem, but what happens when a princess from the fairy world gets magically transported into the real world?
Enchanted begins in the animated fairytale world of Andalasia where Princess Giselle (Amy Adams) is destined to marry Prince Edward (James Marsden) and live happily ever after. Problem is, Edward's step-mother Queen Narissa (Susan Sarandon) doesn't want to give up the throne and will do anything to get Giselle out of Edward's life. Queen Narissa's solution is to push Giselle into a well that magically lands Giselle smack in the middle of the real world--the center of Time Square in New York City, to be exact. This launches the live-action portion of the film where Giselle immediately realizes that things are frighteningly different in this new world and that she is ill-prepared for the callous ways of the people who inhabit it. Giselle finds herself alone on a stormy night in the wrong end of town, but a chance encounter with Robert (Patrick Dempsey) and his princess-loving daughter Morgan (Rachel Covey) leads to a warm, safe place to spend the night and the beginnings of a complicated, yet compelling relationship. As Giselle begins to question the fairy-tale truths she's always inherently believed, Robert's outlook on life and love also begins to change significantly. Parallels to the classic
Disney fairytales,
Cinderella,
Snow White and
Sleeping Beauty abound in the form of a King's and Queen's ball, small animals and rodents who clean house when called, the threat of poisoned apples, characters impulsively breaking into song, and the power of the kiss of true love and the absurd juxtaposition of fairytale idealism and stark reality is hilariously funny. Features music by Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz of
Pocahontas and
The Hunchback of Notre Dame fame,
Wicked's Broadway Elpheba Idina Menzel as Nancy, and even a brief appearance by former Princess voice talent Judy Kuhn (
Pocahontas).
Enchanted is one of the best, most entertaining
Disney films of the year. (Ages 6 and older with parental guidance due to some scary images and mild innuendo)

The NeverEnding StoryView This Product at AmazonWolfgang Petersen (
In the Line of Fire) made his first English-language film with this 1984 fantasy about a boy (Barret Oliver) visualizing the stories of a book he's reading. The imagined tale involves another boy, a warrior (Noah Hathaway), and his efforts to save the empire of Fantasia from a nemesis called the Nothing. Whether or not the scenario sticks in the memory, what does linger are the unique effects, which are not quite like anything else. Plenty of good fairy-tale characters and memorable scenes, and the film even encourages kids to read.

Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and InheritanceView This Product at AmazonIn this lyrical, unsentimental, and compelling memoir, the son of a black African father and a white American mother searches for a workable meaning to his life as a black American. It begins in New York, where Barack Obama learns that his father—a figure he knows more as a myth than as a man—has been killed in a car accident. This sudden death inspires an emotional odyssey—first to a small town in Kansas, from which he retraces the migration of his mother’s family to Hawaii, and then to Kenya, where he meets the African side of his family, confronts the bitter truth of his father’s life, and at last reconciles his divided inheritance.
The Essential Barack Obama: The Grammy Award-Winning RecordingsView This Product at AmazonA CD collection featuring the best-selling audiobooks,
The Audacity of Hope and
Dreams from My Father from Grammy® award-winning author, Barack Obama.
The Audacity of Hope
In July 2004, Barack Obama electrified the Democratic National Convention with an address that spoke to Americans across the political spectrum. One phrase in particular anchored itself in listeners’ minds, a reminder that for all the discord and struggle to be found in our history as a nation, we have always been guided by a dogged optimism in the future, or what Senator Obama called “the audacity of hope.”
Now, in
The Audacity of Hope, Senator Obama calls for a different brand of politics–a politics for those weary of bitter partisanship and alienated by the “endless clash of armies” we see in congress and on the campaign trail; a politics rooted in the faith, inclusiveness, and nobility of spirit at the heart of “our improbable experiment in democracy.” He explores those forces–from the fear of losing to the perpetual need to raise money to the power of the media–that can stifle even the best-intentioned politician. He also writes, with surprising intimacy and self-deprecating humor, about settling in as a senator, seeking to balance the demands of public service and family life, and his own deepening religious commitment.
At the heart of this book is Senator Obama’s vision of how we can move beyond our divisions to tackle concrete problems. He examines the growing economic insecurity of American families, the racial and religious tensions within the body politic, and the transnational threats–from terrorism to pandemic–that gather beyond our shores. And he grapples with the role that faith plays in a democracy–where it is vital and where it must never intrude. Underlying his stories about family, friends, members of the Senate, even the president, is a vigorous search for connection: the foundation for a radically hopeful political consensus.
A senator and a lawyer, a professor and a father, a Christian and a skeptic, and above all a student of history and human nature, Senator Obama has written a book of transforming power. Only by returning to the principles that gave birth to our Constitution, he says, can Americans repair a political process that is broken, and restore to working order a government that has fallen dangerously out of touch with millions of ordinary Americans. Those Americans are out there, he writes–“waiting for Republicans and Democrats to catch up with them.”
