Download or read book The Sweet Life in Paris written by David Lebovitz and published by Crown. This book was released on 2009-05-05 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of My Paris Kitchen and L'Appart, a deliciously funny, offbeat, and irreverent look at the city of lights, cheese, chocolate, and other confections. Like so many others, David Lebovitz dreamed about living in Paris ever since he first visited the city and after a nearly two-decade career as a pastry chef and cookbook author, he finally moved to Paris to start a new life. Having crammed all his worldly belongings into three suitcases, he arrived, hopes high, at his new apartment in the lively Bastille neighborhood. But he soon discovered it's a different world en France. From learning the ironclad rules of social conduct to the mysteries of men's footwear, from shopkeepers who work so hard not to sell you anything to the etiquette of working the right way around the cheese plate, here is David's story of how he came to fall in love with—and even understand—this glorious, yet sometimes maddening, city. When did he realize he had morphed into un vrai parisien? It might have been when he found himself considering a purchase of men's dress socks with cartoon characters on them. Or perhaps the time he went to a bank with 135 euros in hand to make a 134-euro payment, was told the bank had no change that day, and thought it was completely normal. Or when he found himself dressing up to take out the garbage because he had come to accept that in Paris appearances and image mean everything. Once you stop laughing, the more than fifty original recipes, for dishes both savory and sweet, such as Pork Loin with Brown Sugar–Bourbon Glaze, Braised Turkey in Beaujolais Nouveau with Prunes, Bacon and Bleu Cheese Cake, Chocolate-Coconut Marshmallows, Chocolate Spice Bread, Lemon-Glazed Madeleines, and Mocha–Crème Fraîche Cake, will have you running to the kitchen for your own taste of Parisian living.
Download or read book Manifest Destiny Memoirs of a Dreaming Woman written by B. K. Smith and published by Madison Avenue Publishers LLC. This book was released on 2018-06-22 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manifest Destiny - Memoirs of a Dreaming Woman combines Spirituality, Paranormal and Magic into one romantic odyssey. D.M. English PhD writes preventive programs for peer-review magazines and clinics. She is at the end of her career and looking for something else... She begins to hear things and to see things, as all of her hand-woven native American rugs begin to unravel. It's happy hour in her small writing cottage in the desert as the spirits begin to dance in the light and shadows on the ceiling, the branches crackle in the fire place, and the apparition of a warrior stands outside watching her, and soon disappears back into the desert. As Dr. English (Maggie) explores the desert, she meets people, or spirits... as she never knows if she's dreaming or awake. Eventually it doesn't matter, they are the same. These spirits explain her "Dreaming Power" to her, a long way from her home on the beaches of the Long Island Sound, where she learned to read the clouds, those great galleons that bring Mr. Rain, or not. As she begins to understand what is happening to her, what happens when we dream, travels through the Astral layer. The universe may have had a beginning, but it was so long ago, the big bangs and tiny quicken-ings, but there is no middle or end. It always was and always will be? As a scientist, an epidemiologist, she knows that how or where it began affects directly how it will end. But confronted with spirits, angels, that travel to and from some fascinating place where there are no limits, no boundaries, she begins to understand that Science and Faith are two sides of the same coin. The Yin-and-Yang, light and dark, full moon and no moon at all. Maggie learns to release to her destiny by manifesting it. She meets a Medicine Man with Coyote Power. He explains to her that where they are going there are no books since books have beginnings, middles, and endings. There aren't even words, since mental telepathy is used. He takes her to higher desert where they will prepare to ascend. She has found her "Twin Flame," that she knew nothing about, and together they will kayak to this amazing place until the water is so shallow that they can walk on it the rest of the way. The Ascension chakra is stimulated and she passes through it. For readers who doubt, B. K. Smith provides the mathematical equation that cements the deal.
Download or read book Memoirs of a Caregiver written by Cynthia Young and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2013-01-31 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alzheimers is a memory-robbing, debilitating disease that affects millions of Americans. For most families, having just one member afflicted with Alzheimers disease can be devastating. In her poignant memoir, Cynthia Young shares her story of love and devotion as she learns how to care for four family members stricken with Alzheimers disease over a ten-year period. Young narrates a journey filled with laughter, challenges, and sorrow as she commutes from California to Michigan to care for her mother, two aunts, and a cousin. She provides insight into how the disease progresses and gradually destroys the memory and abilities to learn, reason, make sound judgments, communicate, and carry out daily activities. While sharing her personal story and detailing how she overcame each obstacle along the way, Young also teaches other caregivers how to use valuable resources, navigate the court system as a guardian and conservator, handle the Alzheimers personality, and search for an assisted-living facility. Memoirs of a Caregiver shares one womans inspiring story of unconditional love and courage with the hope that it will encourage and empower other caregivers to be diligent, strong, and, most importantly, to never give up. A portion of the proceeds from this book will be directed to the Alzheimers Association.

Book excerpt: Hello from Japan. Not much new here. My four-year-olds attacked me, my crazy female stalkers jumped on the desk and professed their love for me, my depressed coworkers fist-fought each other at the all-you-can-drink karaoke bar, and I have no idea what I ate yesterday but it was uncooked and squishy. Pretty much the usual. What's new from home? Ben took the teaching job in Japan because he wasn't quite ready to figure out what he wanted to do with his life. Instead, his efforts were put towards figuring out his new students, coworkers, and dinner. He is a "gaijin," the Japanese word for "foreigner." From festivals and temples to bicycles and cleaning supplies, Memoirs of a Gaijin: Emails from Japan is the one-year collection of emails and journals that chronicle Ben's experiences in the comedic and confusing country of Japan. "A witty, honest work. Ben Hesse's Memoirs of a Gaijin should be a required read for those college grads who are contemplating the increasingly popular first 'real life' step of teaching English abroad."-C.J. Renner, author of Tried to Say
Download or read book Alzheimer s Disease Memoirs written by Pramod K Nayar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines writings by people living with Alzheimer's Disease and their caregivers. Its focus areas include the construction of the self in the face of diminishing linguistic and cognitive abilities, the stigmatization of ageing, the various narrative strategies that these texts (often collaborative) employ, the health activism and advocacy generated via a 'biosociality,' and the ethics of care. It examines the 'disease writing' genre about a condition that ravages the ability to use language. It serves as a "literary" examination of the work done in this area through a critical reading of the memoirs of those with AD and caregivers and a healthy dose of literary theory. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in literary and critical theory and researchers in the field of ageing/dementia studies.
