Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Glamour camping . . . is about the juxtaposition of rugged and really pretty, grit and glam, diesel and absolutely darling.”—The New York Times Glamping—unleashing your inner wild while wearing a pair of fishing-lure earrings—is for every woman (or man!) who ever had a get-away-from-it-all fantasy (with a few frilly embellishments thrown in). Learn about the never-fail campfire, cooking with cast iron, how to change a flat, and much, much more. Like the infamous Calamity Jane, who said, “I figure if a girl wants to be a legend, she should go ahead and be one,” MaryJane Butters coined the term glamping years ago when she founded her unusual Idaho canvas wall-tent bed & breakfast, which was featured in The New York Times Magazine and Travel & Leisure as “the place to be.” Legend status achieved, MaryJane lives in Moscow, Idaho, where she runs her many businesses, which include a successful organic farm, product lines, a bed & breakfast, and MaryJanesFarm magazine. This is her fourth book. “One busy, hectic afternoon in my house, I sat down to take a quick peek at Glamping. Over two hours later, I was still reading, blissfully lost in MaryJane’s beautiful world. I’m dying over this book. I absolutely, positively LOVE IT!”—Ree Drummond, New York Times bestselling author of The Pioneer Woman Cooks

He first began cooking with cannabis to help a close friend’s mother manage the pain, nausea, and discomfort from her cancer treatments.

In The 420 Gourmet, JeffThe420Chef combines his fun-loving approach to cooking with practical information about marijuana—including guidelines for safe dosing (along with a comprehensive dosage calculator), summaries of the principal strains and their typical effects, and details on the herb’s medical and recreational benefits. Jeff includes step-by-step instructions for his signature “light-tasting” canna-butter and canna-oils, the secrets behind his outrageously delicious and truly unique recipes. Once you create these staple ingredients yourself, it becomes easy to incorporate cannabis into everyday dishes—and the “pot-sibilities” are endless! From brunch and small plates to salads and gourmet dinners—and featuring gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, and kosher options—The 420 Gourmet elevates the edible experience. Jeff’s precise dosage guidelines expand the horizons of cannabis cuisine, which will no longer be limited to a few bites of a brownie. These mouthwatering recipes are fully adaptable to your goals, whether you need a full-course meal for nourishment and pain management or a quick snack to help you focus, relax, and enhance your creativity.
