Download or read book Dog Days written by Andrew Cotter and published by Sourcebooks, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-08-30 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Join two of the internet's favorite dogs and their owner, sports broadcaster Andrew Cotter, as he shares journal entries from life during the pandemic lockdown. Are you sitting nicely? Good. Let's discover exactly what happened after two superstar Labradors chewed up the lockdown internet and found it really quite tasty. He's not kept a journal for decades but here, in Dog Days, Andrew Cotter draws inspiration from the great Samuel Pepys; like him, he bears witness to the extraordinary everyday as the world tilts on its axis in our own unsettling era. And so, with Olive and Mabel at his side—actually, dawdling in the long grass or sleeping upside down—Andrew takes a clear-eyed, often hilarious walk through a year that encompasses all of life from the crushingly mundane to the decidedly odd. Followed by whispers of "Is that really Olive and Mabel?"—not to mention the occasional Hollywood approach—the three of them pad around literary festivals, breakfast TV, live radio, and even an appearance on Good Morning America. Slightly bemused by their fame, Andrew not only pitches up in the iconic Mastermind chair, but makes a return to sports broadcasting to find that it has become rather strange as well. But, always, his pair of utterly endearing, endlessly optimistic and eternally hungry canine companions show just how precious our time is. Especially our time spent in the devoted company of dogs. For fans new and old, this witty, insightful account of a year like no other is an unmissable treat.
Download or read book The Olive Press News From the Land of the Misfits written by Jason Heppenstall and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-22 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's 2005 and Jason Heppenstall is trying to forget the violent start to his new life in Spain - so setting up a newspaper in an oddball town in the mountains south of Granada seems like just the ticket. But with no journalism skills and no experience of running a newspaper it's touch and go right from the start. The Olive Press and its ragtag band of writers certainly causes a stir when it arrives on the scene, with its 'green' outlook and its stance against corruption. But it isn't long before trouble surfaces and it's a struggle for survival for the fledgling newspaper as it joins in the fight to stop the destruction of an ancient forest, and gets into a spat with a miscreant British politician that turns out to have huge ramifications. Set around Orgiva in the beautiful Alpujarra region of Andalucia, this is the often absurd and sometimes shocking story of how one of Spain's most popular English language newspapers came to be. Be warned, however, The Olive Press - News From the Land of the Misfits will have you either laughing out loud or choking on your tapas - not your average Spanish memoir.

Download or read book Diary of a Tuscan Chef written by Cesare Casella and published by Broadway. This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cesare Casella's culinary career began at the age of thirteen in the kitchen of his family's restaurant, Il Vipore, just outside of Lucca in the hills of Tuscany. In 1979 he took over the kitchen, and in 1993 Il Vipore was awarded its first Michelin star. "Diary of a Tuscan Chef is not only a book of quintessential--and ambrosial--Tuscan dishes, it is the charming and wittily told story of Casella's journey from that first foray into Il Vipore's kitchen to becoming executive chef at Pino Luongo's famed Coco Pazzo restaurant in New York City. Arranged as a series of seasonal menus, each one inspired by a colorful anecdote taken from Casella's life, "Diary of a Tuscan Chef is dedicated to the two most basic tenets of Tuscan cooking: seasonality and flexibility. Creating the best, tastiest, most satisfying food from a few fresh, seasonally available ingredients is what Tuscan cooking is all about. Cesare Casella is a professional chef, but these are not "restaurant dishes." As he so aptly puts it, "As far as I know, no one has written a cookbook for the American public that presents Tuscan food as it is--good, simple, and natural. The Tuscan table should be as easy to set in New York as it is in Garfagnana, or in Rome, Georgia, for that matter." All of the 150 recipes in "Diary of a Tuscan Chef can be made at home with ingredients found in any local supermarket. In the end, it is Casella himself, a wonderful storyteller and a wonderful chef, who makes this book unique. With his words and the many photographs of him, his food, and his family, the reader will be transported into a world of delicious cooking and delightful company.
