by Tara GarrisonThe Ketogenic diet has been wildly popular for several years. In fact, you may feel like everyone you know is on the keto diet—or at least has tried to live life on the keto diet. That’s where many people run into a pitfall. Keto is often seen as being unsustainable for the long term. That’s where nutritionist, personal trainer, and health coach Tara Garrison comes in with her expert advice about the proven benefits of a shorter-duration keto plan. In Short-Term Keto, Garrison explains why the keto diet makes sense and shares success stories from people who’ve made it work. Then she explains how to increase your chance for success if you’re new to keto or how to reintroduce carbs if you’ve used keto to meet your goal and need to maintain your health and weight loss. Garrison’s plan enables you to customize your meals for the carb count that’s right for you. She describes different eating models—One Meal a Day, Targeted Ketogenic Diet, and Cyclical Ketogenic Diet—so that you can listen to your body’s cues to follow the plan that suits you best. She even includes recommendations for athletes whose carb needs may vary because of events, performance goals, and weight changes. Garrison’s delicious recipes, complete with carb counts, will help you find the inspiration to feed yourself well for the long term!

Pierce encourages today's cooks to support local shrimp fisheries in order to help ensure that future generations will continue to enjoy American-sourced shrimp in abundance, and he explains how to procure the freshest shrimp throughout the cycle of seasons. While shrimp is popular throughout the region for entertaining a backyard crowd, it is also a go-to ingredient for the special-occasion menu. Demystifying fancier dishes and offering everyday cooks step-by-step instructions for all stages of preparation, Pierce highlights just how deliciously versatile shrimp can be.

This new edition features a foreword by Paul Clarke, the Executive Editor of Imbibe magazine and author of The Cocktail Chronicles. Here is the definitive guide to making and using shrubs.
Shrubs: An Old Fashioned Drink for Modern Times

Not the kind that grow in the ground, but a vintage drink mixer that will knock your socks off. "Mixologists across the country are reaching back through the centuries to reclaim vinegar's more palatable past . . . embracing it as 'the other acid,' an alternative to the same-old-same-old lemons and limes," said the New York Times. The history of shrubs, as revealed here, is as fascinating as the drinks are refreshing. These sharp and tangy infusions are simple to make and use, as you'll discover with these recipes. Mix up some Red Currant Shrub for a Vermouth Cassis, or Apple Cinnamon Shrub to mix with seltzer, or develop your own with Michael Dietsch's directions and step-by-step photographs. "Imagine a fizzy, soda-like drink that is drier and so much more sophisticated than soda, what with the sugar and botanical ingredients. Shrubs! Amazing! Wonderful!!" --Amy Stewart, author of The Drunken Botanist
