Download or read book You Want Fries With That written by Prioleau Alexander and published by Skyhorse Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever fantasized about quitting your job and starting over? Prioleau Alexander did just that. Here is his laugh-out-loud funny, endearing, and humbling exploration of life at minimum wage. Alexander walked away from a lucrative career as an advertising executive, seeking a life “like that dude on Kung Fu.” Over the next year, he worked minimum-wage jobs as a pizza deliveryman, ice cream scooper, construction worker, ER tech, fast food jockey, and even cowboy on a Montana dude ranch. He reveals a side of America that is rarely seen and questions the stale white-collar notions of a deeper, more meaningful life beyond the cubicle. In You Want Fries With That? Prioleau explores life at minimum wage and proves unequivocally that the grass is not always greener on the other side.

Book excerpt: Myrtle Hitchabocker is the biggest weirdo at Parkside Intermediate School. She talks to bugs and flowers and counts clouds. She wears stained striped sweater vests with polka-dot shirts. The bullies at school never miss a chance to remind Myrtle that she doesn't fit in, and they like to make Myrtle miserable. One afternoon, after receiving a terrible teasing, Myrtle looks up from crying to realize that she is no longer on the school playground. She has been transported to Elsewhereville, where different is divine, the sky is green, the grass is blue, and where pickles grow on trees. Join Myrtle as she meets wonderful weirdos who live in Elsewhereville, including the Upside-Down Painter, the Little Rabbitty Girl with Wheels for Feet, the Ginormous Jelly Man, Three Conferring Conifers, Border Wizzler, and a rhinoceros named Bill Worthington (though he prefers to be called Fram). In Elsewhereville, 'fitting out' is way more fun than 'fitting in' could ever be. But watch out! The miserable Cloud Cousins aim to spread their misery to everyone in Elsewhereville- especially Myrtle! Elsewhereville is an imagination sparking chapter book that will delight any child ages 7-12.

Download or read book Eating Up Route 66 written by T. Lindsay Baker and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2022-10-13 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its designation in 1926 to the rise of the interstates nearly sixty years later, Route 66 was, in John Steinbeck’s words, America’s Mother Road, carrying countless travelers the 2,400 miles between Chicago and Los Angeles. Whoever they were—adventurous motorists or Dustbowl migrants, troops on military transports or passengers on buses, vacationing families or a new breed of tourists—these travelers had to eat. The story of where they stopped and what they found, and of how these roadside offerings changed over time, reveals twentieth-century America on the move, transforming the nation’s cuisine, culture, and landscape along the way. Author T. Lindsay Baker, a glutton for authenticity, drove the historic route—or at least the 85 percent that remains intact—in a four-cylinder 1930 Ford station wagon. Sparing us the dust and bumps, he takes us for a spin along Route 66, stopping to sample the fare at diners, supper clubs, and roadside stands and to describe how such venues came and went—even offering kitchen-tested recipes from historic eateries en route. Start-ups that became such American fast-food icons as McDonald’s, Dairy Queen, Steak ’n Shake, and Taco Bell feature alongside mom-and-pop diners with flocks of chickens out back and sit-down restaurants with heirloom menus. Food-and-drink establishments from speakeasies to drive-ins share the right-of-way with other attractions, accommodations, and challenges, from the Whoopee Auto Coaster in Lyons, Illinois, to the piles of “chat” (mining waste) in the Tri-State District of Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma, to the perils of driving old automobiles over the Jericho Gap in the Texas Panhandle or Sitgreaves Pass in western Arizona. Describing options for the wealthy and the not-so-well-heeled, from hotel dining rooms to ice cream stands, Baker also notes the particular travails African Americans faced at every turn, traveling Route 66 across the decades of segregation, legal and illegal. So grab your hat and your wallet (you’ll probably need cash) and come along for an enlightening trip down America’s memory lane—a westward tour through the nation’s heartland and history, with all the trimmings, via Route 66.
