Day of Honey
by Annia CiezadloA luminous portrait of life in the Middle East, Day of Honey weaves history, cuisine, and firsthand reporting into a fearless, intimate exploration of everyday survival. In the fall of 2003, Annia Ciezadlo spent her honeymoon in Baghdad. Over the next six years, while living in Baghdad and Beirut, she broke bread with Shiites and Sunnis, warlords and refugees, matriarchs and mullahs. Day of Honey is her memoir of the hunger for food and friendship--a communion that feeds the soul as much as the body in times of war. Reporting from occupied Baghdad, Ciezadlo longs for normal married life. She finds it in Beirut, her husband's hometown, a city slowly recovering from years of civil war. But just as the young couple settles into a new home, the bloodshed they escaped in Iraq spreads to Lebanon and reawakens the terrible specter of sectarian violence. In lucid, fiercely intelligent prose, Ciezadlo uses food and the rituals of eating to illuminate a vibrant Middle East that most Americans never see. We get to know people like Roaa, a determined young Kurdish woman who dreams of exploring the world, only to see her life under occupation become confined to the kitchen; Abu Rifaat, a Baghdad book lover who spends his days eavesdropping in the ancient city's legendary cafés; Salama al-Khafaji, a soft-spoken dentist who eludes assassins to become Iraq's most popular female politician; and Umm Hassane, Ciezadlo's sardonic Lebanese mother-in-law, who teaches her to cook rare family recipes--which are included in a mouthwatering appendix of Middle Eastern comfort food. As bombs destroy her new family's ancestral home and militias invade her Beirut neighborhood, Ciezadlo illuminates the human cost of war with an extraordinary ability to anchor the rhythms of daily life in a larger political and historical context. From forbidden Baghdad book clubs to the oldest recipes in the world, Ciezadlo takes us inside the Middle East at a historic moment when hope and fear collide. Day of Honey is a brave and compassionate portrait of civilian life during wartime--a moving testament to the power of love and generosity to transcend the misery of war.

Dayton Beer: A History of Brewing in the Miami Valley (American Palate)
by Timothy R. GaffneyThe story of beer in Dayton and the Miami Valley is as old as the region's first settlers, who brought their brewing methods with them from Europe. From humble origins, the Schwind brothers founded a Dayton brewing dynasty. Adam Schantz arrived penniless and amassed a fortune as one of the city's early brewers. Martha Vorce, one of the region's several unheralded woman brewers, was running the Springfield Brewery a decade before Eliza "Mother" Stewart gained fame there as a temperance leader. Although Prohibition swiftly destroyed this flourishing industry, today's local craft brewers promise to keep good beer and good times flowing for many years to come. Join local author Tim Gaffney as he explores the Valley's brewing heritage.

De foodie blogger a chef: La cocina de Nilesisíma
by Nicole SaavedraUn libro con recetas de platos tradicionales, pero que tienen un giro novedoso e imperdible, y que van acompañadas de increíbles ilustraciones.

Eso la llevó a tomar la decisión más importante: dejar su carrera y estudiar gastronomía. El camino no ha sido fácil, pero gracias a esa pasión logró pasar de ser una reconocida foodie blogger a la chef que siempre quiso ser. A través de las recetas de este libro, Nicole nos hace parte de su vida y nos cuenta sobre sus comidas favoritas, las de su familia, lo que comía mientras estudiaba o lo que aprendió en sus clases. Algunas son preparaciones simples y otras con un poco más de complejidad, pero siempre explicadas con mucha dedicación y acompañadas de hermosas ilustraciones, para que todos podamos disfrutar de estas deliciosas experiencias.
De geschiedenis van het vegetarisme en veganisme: Kort, bondig en licht verteerbaar...
by Daniel HagenWe leven al zo'n tien generaties in het industriële tijdperk. Een tijdperk waarin het snel gaat. Het menselijk ras is in overdrive! Ook qua voeding. Vlees is goedkoop geworden, in massa geproduceerd We eten zongerijpte papaja's in hartje winter. Noordzeegarnalen worden gevangen in de Noordzee, gepeld in Marokko en vervolgens 'vers gevangen' gegeten in Noord-Duitsland. In de onderwaterwereld heeft plastic voorrang op het leven in zee. In het ene deel van de wereld lijden nog steeds veel mensen aan ondervoeding - in het andere deel komt steeds meer en meer obesitas, diabetes, enz voor. Met het oog hierop zou je kunnen denken dat de vegetariër, evenals de veganistische voedingsfilosofie in de vervolgopleiding, een heel jong fenomeen is dat voornamelijk ontsprongen is uit de geprivilegieerde sociale perspectieven van de Eerste Wereld. Maar dat is verre van zo!

Dead Ringer (A Mattie Winston Mystery #11)
by Annelise RyanA new murder victim with an old M.O. puts Mattie Winston on the trail of a killer who gives a grim new meaning to flower power . . . Spring is beginning to brighten Sorenson, Wisconsin, for Mattie and Steve Hurley and their family. While their son Matthew may be in his terrible twos and Steve's daughter Emily a moody teenager, the kids bring light to their lives when their work is dark by its nature—Steve is a homicide detective and Mattie is a medicolegal death investigator, aka medical examiner. They deal in corpses. The latest corpse, a Jane Doe, was clearly an addict, but drugs didn't kill her, at least not directly. She's been stabbed multiple times in a pattern that is disturbingly familiar to Mattie. When she discovers flower petals from yellow carnations stuffed into the stab wounds, she recognizes a very specific M.O.—belonging to a convicted serial killer who's currently serving a life sentence. The details of the flower petals were never made public in the last case, so it can't be a copycat crime. It looks like the wrong man is in prison, and the murderer is still at large. Now it's up to Mattie and Steve to get the case reopened—and catch the real carnation killer . . .

Still, she&’s shocked when she gets a call from Karl&’s ex-wife, Josie, that she&’s found Karl . . . crushed to death beneath the lift in her automotive shop. Cece convinces Josie to call the police, even though Josie is terrified. After all, Karl was an abusive husband, was threatening her, and she has no alibi. With Josie&’s future on the line, and maybe her own, Cece starts her own investigation. From the customers Karl cheated to the other women he harassed, she finds there&’s no lack of suspects—other than the shelter kittens to whom he was an uncharacteristically sweet volunteer. With a bouquet of motives and unanswered questions, Cece is going to need the help of her twin, Allie, who owns a nearby B & B, as she dives into Karl&’s past—before the killer catches up with her, and the lights go out for good . . .

But in reality, Alyne was miserable, struggling to reconcile her flawless image with the pain and humiliation of abuse, an eating disorder, infidelity, and depression.Until Alyne reached a breaking point: the day her husband asked for a divorce—over email. Thank God! Or, not God. Finally free from the expectations of her family and faith, Alyne had to start a new life, which meant rediscovering herself and what she secretly wanted all along: the liberating life of a digital nomad.In a singular voice brimming with honesty and humor, Alyne invites us on a journey of strength and self-discovery—with a little bit of irreverence along the way. Dear Alyne is a one-of-a-kind, coming-of-age story and a testament to the limitless possibilities that await those brave enough to defy convention.
