Download or read book A Gathering of Loves written by Horace Helmick and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-05-28 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She is Dan Butxn, the dreamer who rose from the sand and rocks to see the wind, a human with no where to go. This is Dan who heeds Dot's words. Painting is simple: The hand applies the paint while the mind watches. Dot dies (after a violent disagreement with Dan), and Dan moves into Dot's studio, once Willa's studio. Dan learns to paint, and art quickly replaces/displaces her need for human contact. But why are people who know Dan dying? Or disappearing and then dying? And who's sending all the weird messages to her machine? And who's burning down houses? And why do Dan's feelings about the world around her remain so vague? And who reappears in a lump of light to pull Dan safely back down to earth? Can this savior be trusted? Read for love of language, language that borders on fatalist poetry. Read, and see life thru the eyes of a creative spirit. Travel the twisting path thru the unusual, glorious mind of an artist. Journey thru an ordinary world with the woman seeking, and always seeing, the extraordinary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chez Panisse opened its doors in 1971. Founded by Alice Waters, the restaurant is rooted in her conviction that the best-tasting food is organic, locally grown, and harvested in ecologically sound ways by people who are taking care of the land for future generations. The quest for such ingredients has always determined the restaurant’s cuisine, and, over the course of forty years, Chez Panisse has helped create a community of local farmers and ranchers whose dedication to sustainable agriculture assures the restaurant a steady supply of fresh and pure ingredients. In Forty Years of Chez Panisse: The Power of Gathering, Alice takes readers on her journey from the humble and visionary beginnings of the restaurant, through its rise and the acclaim, to the Café and the influential Chez Panisse Foundation. Organized by decade, the book includes a wealth of archival material and photographs—menus; invitations; pictures of Alice at the restaurant and around the world, with those who have passed through her life—and interviews from public figures and cooks who have been inspired by or mentored at the restaurant. This tribute to the delicious food revolution that began with Alice Waters and Chez Panisse is an important work for anyone who cares about food, sustainability, and the powerful legacy that Alice has built.
