Download or read book Granny s Momma s Mine and More written by Kay Sandifer and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I learned to cook from my grandmother and my mother, so that is where I want to begin this cookbook. My grandmother was legally blind. She recognized all seven of her grandchildren and her children by our walks and our voices. Needless to say, she could not see the numbers or notches on measuring cups or bowls, but that did not hinder her from being a great cook. When people have asked me for recipes, it has always been hard for me because recipes require measurements, and I never saw anyone measure anything! I watched my mother and grandmother and my aunt Betty just smidgen and pinch their way right through the kitchen to countless great-tasting meals and desserts. This is one reason my cookbook has taken so long to produce. I had to start measuring! Not an easy thing to do when your natural instinct is to just go to the kitchen and start cooking. Life was hard for my granny, but she knew how to love her family despite all her struggles and believe me, she had plenty on her plate. Granny loved her family, and she made sure that all of us understood the importance of family. She kept us all close. One important way Granny kept the family close was through meals. We always had Sunday dinners and holiday meals together. Cooking was her love language with her family. Granny was proof that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. When we love something that we do so much and the people that we do it for even more, then most all things are possible. Granny passed this down to my mother, to me, and to the rest of her family. I can see her in my mind's eye standing over her kitchen counter, with a kitchen towel hanging over her shoulder, cooking and pouring herself a cup of coffee with her thumb inside the cup so she knew when her cup was full. I am blessed to have family who are so much more to me than just relatives. They are some of my dearest friends. My sister, Bea, and I, my cousins Vickie, Terri, Glenda, and Rena, along with my granny, momma, and aunt Betty all used to get together at Aunt Betty's house on each of our birthdays. We shared food and lots of love and laughter. Now that my grandmother and mother have passed away, we don't celebrate birthdays the same, but we still try to celebrate each other's birthdays together. Being a close family was important to her, and it is important to all of us. I hope you enjoy reading the little stories in the cookbook and enjoy making and eating the recipes. Live. Love. Laugh. And cook!

Book excerpt: "All birth records are sealed and held in perpetuity to ensure that the law of confidentiality is not breached." This response met every request made by Norman Carson as he searched for his birth family. For two years Carson persisted in his search despite being continually rebuffed. An evangelical Christian, he knew that his own adoption might illustrate the fundamental Christian doctrine of adoption in Christ. Received in Grace details Carson's childhood in his adoptive family; his search, begun when he was 62; the dead ends and byways he encountered; and the rich reward that finally became his in the birth family itself. Received in Grace describes in intimate detail his Kansas childhood, the pleasures and difficulties of being a preacher's kid, and finally the fascinating history and rich variety of personalities that he discovered in his birth family.
Download or read book Hill Women written by Cassie Chambers and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After rising from poverty to earn two Ivy League degrees, an Appalachian lawyer pays tribute to the strong “hill women” who raised and inspired her, and whose values have the potential to rejuvenate a struggling region. “Destined to be compared to Hillbilly Elegy and Educated.”—BookPage (starred review) “A gritty, warm love letter to Appalachian communities and the resourceful women who lead them.”—Slate Nestled in the Appalachian mountains, Owsley County, Kentucky, is one of the poorest places in the country. Buildings are crumbling as tobacco farming and coal mining decline. But strong women find creative ways to subsist in the hills. Through the women who raised her, Cassie Chambers traces her path out of and back into the Kentucky mountains. Chambers’s Granny was a child bride who rose before dawn every morning to raise seven children. Granny’s daughter, Ruth—the hardest-working tobacco farmer in the county—stayed on the family farm, while Wilma—the sixth child—became the first in the family to graduate from high school. Married at nineteen and pregnant with Cassie a few months later, Wilma beat the odds to finish college. She raised her daughter to think she could move mountains, like the ones that kept her safe but also isolated from the larger world. Cassie would spend much of her childhood with Granny and Ruth in the hills of Owsley County. With her “hill women” values guiding her, she went on to graduate from Harvard Law. But while the Ivy League gave her opportunities, its privileged world felt far from her reality, and she moved home to help rural Kentucky women by providing free legal services. Appalachian women face issues from domestic violence to the opioid crisis, but they are also keeping their towns together in the face of a system that continually fails them. With nuance and heart, Chambers breaks down the myth of the hillbilly and illuminates a region whose poor communities, especially women, can lead it into the future.

Download or read book The French Laundry Cookbook written by Thomas Keller and published by Artisan. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIVIACP Award Winner 2019 marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the acclaimed French Laundry restaurant in the Napa Valley—“the most exciting place to eat in the United States” (The New York Times). The most transformative cookbook of the century celebrates this milestone by showcasing the genius of chef/proprietor Thomas Keller himself. Keller is a wizard, a purist, a man obsessed with getting it right. And this, his first cookbook, is every bit as satisfying as a French Laundry meal itself: a series of small, impeccable, highly refined, intensely focused courses. Most dazzling is how simple Keller's methods are: squeegeeing the moisture from the skin on fish so it sautées beautifully; poaching eggs in a deep pot of water for perfect shape; the initial steeping in the shell that makes cooking raw lobster out of the shell a cinch; using vinegar as a flavor enhancer; the repeated washing of bones for stock for the cleanest, clearest tastes. From innovative soup techniques, to the proper way to cook green vegetables, to secrets of great fish cookery, to the creation of breathtaking desserts; from beurre monté to foie gras au torchon, to a wild and thoroughly unexpected take on coffee and doughnuts, The French Laundry Cookbook captures, through recipes, essays, profiles, and extraordinary photography, one of America's great restaurants, its great chef, and the food that makes both unique. One hundred and fifty superlative recipes are exact recipes from the French Laundry kitchen—no shortcuts have been taken, no critical steps ignored, all have been thoroughly tested in home kitchens. If you can't get to the French Laundry, you can now re-create at home the very experience Wine Spectator described as “as close to dining perfection as it gets.”
