Hollywood Dish: More Than 150 Delicious, Healthy Recipes from Hollywood's Chef to the Stars10 reviews
Akasha Richmond

Avery, 2006

Anna P. (Los Angeles)
Years ago Akasha Richmond won my heart with The Art Of Tofu. This time she has taken me to a whole new level. Hollywood Dish is a gem. The recipes are inventive yet easy and fun to make. The Vegan Carrot Cake tastes better than the real thing, the Kombucha Squash soup, warm and soothing and the historical stories and anecdotes are so much fun. This is the perfect gift for any foodie or novice ...

Camilla V. Saulsbury

Cumberland House Publishing, 2004

Well used, very well liked
This is a cookbook I really do use--a lot. I like some of the very easiest recipes in here, especially the variations on the chocolate chip cookies. They really taste unique. A friend of a friend who worked as a pstry chef thought the peppery ginger chocolate chip cookies (they have cryst. ginger and pepper mixed in) were brilliant and wanted the recipe--thy're that good. Smart ideas, smart book, ...

Gregg Avedon

Rodale Books, 2007

Absolutely fantastic!
OK. I know this is a guy book and I'm not a guy. Let's start with that. I was led to this book because I had read about it in one of my publications. I absolutely detest cooking and I have a panic attack just thinking about the kitchen. My mother taught me to drive and type. She didn't teach me to cook. I've bought many cookbooks and hate them all. They're all too complicated for my ... 		  
  







  
  
Soup Makes the Meal: 150 Soul-Satisfying Recipes for Soups, Salads, and Breads9 reviews
Ken Haedrich

Harvard Common Press, 2001

Awesome recipes
I cook often, but I own very few cookbooks. I get tired of buying cookbooks and finding only a few recipes worth making. This book is definitely an exception. Every recipe I've tried has been terrific, and there are so many others I'd like to try, I've decided to give the library back their copy and purchase my own. The biggest plus for me is that the recipes are all very healthy and the ...

Just Fantastic
I'm a complete foodie, I live alone, visit the gym often and love to eat fresh foods. I've made over half the recipes in this book so far and have really just loved them all (I've done some tweaking for fun). They are quick to make, very healthy and incorporate all kinds of fresh and ethnic ingredients. I was very surprised by how much I use and love this cookbook (as I usually whip up random ... 		  
  







  
  
Surprised By Canon Law: 150 Questions Laypeople Ask About Canon Law12 reviews
Pete Vere, Michael Trueman, ...

Servant Publications, 2005

Canon Law for the Man or Woman on the Street
Professor Emeritus, Saint Paul University, Ottawa, Canada Unfortunately canon law is one of the most misunderstood and consequently least appreciated aspects of the Catholic Church. This is true not only for non-Catholics, but also for many Catholics, including many of the clergy. In a word, many do not like canon law because they do not really know anything about it, or have gross ...

Dot Vartan

Dorothy Jean Publishing, Inc., 2004

Yum!
I love fruity desserts, but never really made any because I was afraid they are easy to mess up and will be hard to make. I received this cookbook as gift, so I figured I would give it a whirl. The good news is that the receipes in this book are much easier than I thought they would be, and I was surprised by how many receipes there were for each fruit. Unique, easy-to-follow recipes featuring ... 		  
  







  
  
The Abbey of Gethsemani: Place of Peace and Paradox (150 Years in the Life of America's Oldest Trappist ...9 reviews
Dianne Aprile

Trout Lily Press (KY), 1998

The Official Story of Gethsemani
About a month ago, I visited The Abbey of Gethsemani for what I officially said was a retreat, but like so many people who have visited the abbey, I loved THE SEVEN STOREY MOUNTAIN and wanted to see where Thomas Merton lived and wrote. The tourist in me wanted to see Merton's hermitage, which I did not see. It was in use at the time-the nerve of those monks for actually using it for the intended ... 		  
  







  
  
The Perfect Cake: 150 cakes for Every taste and Occasion9 reviews
Susan G. Purdy

Broadway, 2002

Pretty Good Cake
The aeration process advocated for shortening type cakes really turns out a light fine textured cake. In addition to great extra cake recipes this book also marches pretty much in lock step with the Betty Crocker Red Book basic tutorials such as for egg, cakes and the ingredient sub list, which is something that I really like.

Sylvia Mendoza

Adams Media Corporation, 2004

Viva Latinas
I am writing to say how entertaining this new book features such Latin superstars like Vikki Carr, Gloria Estafan, and Selena. It is time we salute such great woman, and special thanks to Grammy superstar Vikki Carr for making Latin music popular here in the US. No one has done more to promote the culture in the US marketplace! I am very proud to see that the website that Vito Cifaldi and ...

Hit the Ground Crawling: Lessons From 150,000 New Fathers6 reviews
Greg Bishop

Dads Adventure, 2006

Daddy Basics - What a concept!
I heard about this book at a party and bought it for my girlfriends husband (they were expecting their first). Before giving it to him I reviewed the Table of Contents and started reading different chapters. Before I knew it - I had read the entire book. This book is the basics of what everyone should know - but men have been afraid to discuss before. Heck - women won't even talk about most ...

24 Hours in Cyberspace: Painting on the Walls of the Digital Cave Photographed on One Day by 150 of the ...6 reviews

Que, 1996

An incredibly predictive web description!
This is the first book I did purchase thru Amazon. And, I must confess, this book is the perfect selection to anyone interested in "feeling" what the web means today all over the world. It's indeed extraordinary, too, that all the wonderful pictures that are included in it were taken IN THE VERY SAME DAY in a period of just 24 hours. Moreover, that day the pics were being published almost in real ... 		  
  







  
  
Cooking with Sunshine: The Complete Guide to Solar Cuisine with 150 Easy Sun-Cooked Recipes6 reviews
Lorraine Anderson, Rick Palkovic

Da Capo Press, 2006

This is the reference I paid money for...
I usually preview my books by borrowing them from the library to see if they are worth buying. This is one that I chose for my personal collection. I also checked out "Cooking with the Sun" (by Halacy and Halacy), which had some good introductory information and interesting-looking recipes. However, as soon as I got to the list of supplies needed for actually building their solar oven ...

There And Now (Silhouette Special Edition, No. 754)8 reviews
Linda Lael Miller

silhouette, 1992

THERE AND NOW AND HERE & THEN (BEYOND THE THRESHOLD)
AFTER STARTING MANY BOOKS & LEAVING THEM BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HOLD MY INTEREST, I FOUND "BEYOND THE THRESHOLD." THE BOOK IS 2 COMPLETE NOVELS IN ONE, "THERE & NOW" AND "HERE & THEN." I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO PUT THIS BOOK DOWN & CAN'T WAIT FOR MY SISTER TO READ IT. GOING BACK & FORTH FROM MODERN DAY TO THE 1800'S GIVES THE BOOK A MUCH MORE INTERESTING READ. I AM DEFINATELY RECOMMENDING THIS BOOK.
