Book excerpt: Maria Lawton, known as the "Azorean Green Bean," is proud to announce the arrival of her debut cookbook, "Azorean Cooking: From My Family Table to Yours," a collection of more than 50 recipes that celebrates the traditions of Azorean cooking, culture, and family. "For more than four years, I have made it my mission to preserve my family recipes," said Lawton. "At first, I just wanted to make sure they would be passed down to my children and future generations - but now, I want to share them with everyone who might miss their Azorean mother or grandmother's cooking, or whoever wants to know how to recreate the tastes and smells of the past. This has been a wonderful journey home for me, and I hope this helps others on their journey, too." In the book, Lawton shares powerful memories of her family and cooking experiences as she walks readers through an array of recipes, ranging from popular Azorean dishes - including Arroz Doce (Sweet Rice Pudding), Massa Sovada (Sweet Bread) and Sopa de Couve (Kale Soup) - to classics like Cozido (Boiled Dinner), Cacoila (Marinated Pork), and Camarao Mozambique (Shrimp Mozambique). Throughout the collection, Lawton makes the cooking process simple, educational, and enjoyable, with a constant focus on a delicious end result. Lawton was born on the semi-tropical island of Sao Miguel, the largest of nine islands that make up the Azores, an autonomous region of Portugal located nearly a thousand miles off its coast in the Atlantic Ocean. At age six, Lawton moved to the United States with her family and settled in a Portuguese community in southeastern Massachusetts. Growing up, Lawton was teased with a number of names like "Portagee," "Fava Bean" and "Greenhorn," but would always answer with, "Thank you - I'm proud of it!" Her nickname today of "Azorean Green Bean" is an embrace of these cultural elements and a reflection of pride.

Download or read book Yours Presently written by Michael Seth Stewart and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2024-06-15 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boston born and bred, John Wieners was a queer self-styled poète maudit who was renowned among his contemporaries but ignored by mainstream critics. Twenty-first-century readers are correcting this elision, placing Wieners back alongside his better-known peers, including Allen Ginsberg, Charles Olson, Denise Levertov, and Amiri Baraka. Wieners was a voluble letter writer, maintaining friendships with these contemporaries that spanned decades and tackling a range of complex issues that resonate today, including drug use, homosexuality, subcultures of the East and West Coasts, and the differing treatment of mental patients based on their economic class. The letters collected in this volume are greatly enhanced by Eileen Myles’s preface and Stewart’s thorough introduction, notes, and brief bios of the poets, writers, artists, and editors with whom Wieners corresponded. The result is more than the letters of a poet—it is a history that explores the world at large in the mid-twentieth century.

And to put it simply, your story - look it just isn't credible. Edrina was trafficked from her family home when she was fifteen. She was taken to Italy for three years before being trafficked to the UK, where she was held captive for another three years. She escaped 152 days ago.

Just when Edrina thought she might have a chance at life - she is catapulted backwards by a hostile immigration system that does not believe her story. She is acutely vulnerable and is re-trafficked within weeks. Could this have been prevented? The Helen Bamber Foundation provides all encompassing care to help Survivors access the therapeutic, medical, legal, housing and welfare support they need to recover from the traumas of trafficking. The foundation now seeks to address the systemic problem of re-trafficking in the UK.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reconnect to your inner sense of pleasure and joy through embodiment practices, which put you in touch with the natural wisdom of your body and enhance your ability to connect with others. In this time of increased fatigue, loneliness, and anxiety, disconnection from our bodies and from each other is at the core of our personal pain and our collective suffering. Women in particular are rewarded for, and expected to participate in self-denial. By weaving together historical and cultural commentary, humorous and poignant anecdotes, and experiential tools backed by science, The Pleasure Is All Yours is a step-by-step guide to help you release barriers to receiving life’s pleasures and deeper connections with others. In this timely guide, holistic psychologist, relationship and sex therapist, and yoga teacher Dr. Rachel Allyn introduces bodyfulness, an embodiment method she developed to help you to awaken into your body's own capacity for healing and deeper connection. Allyn explains how bodyfulness can connect you to four essential and overlooked types of pleasure—sensual, playful, lively, and erotic— which overlap in many ways, and helps you identify what can inspire your own pleasure in each category. Through bodyful activities such as breathing exercises, mindfulness, yoga, auditory release, and dynamic movements, this book helps you reunite with your inherent wisdom and soulful delight.

Book excerpt: I pressed a kiss to the top of her head for the benefit of our audience. "Ready? "For you?" She ran her fingers along my jaw. "Always." She stood on her tippy toes and placed a soft kiss on my neck. A shiver spread through my entire body. Jesus. I took a hold of the back of her neck and turned her head up gently. I made sure the kiss was slow, tender. This was most likely the only time I’d get to do this and I was going to make it last. She melted into me with a sigh. When I pulled back, her eyes were half lidded, her breathing hard. If she looked like that after a kiss, what would she look like after… No. Bad Ray. Mary I have a problem. My best friend joined a cult and it’s been a while since I’ve been able to get a hold of her. You’d think since my brother is a partner at Daisy Security, a company that helps track people down, I should have no problem finding her. Except that Jack seems to think I’m overreacting. That leaves me no choice but to go behind his back and ask a member of their sister company for help. When Nyssa introduces me to Ray, I have to admit, I’m more than a little surprised by the feelings he brings forth with his soothing promises and calming touches. I didn’t come to Granger Springs to find love. I came here to find Tara. But maybe… maybe I can find both? Ray I’ve spent the past two years of my life working as Pup Security’s rat. I’m the guy who tracks down the leads and makes sure they’re solid before the team moves in. I’d have been perfectly happy doing the same for the rest of my life, so when they offer me a partner position, I’m floored and beyond thankful. Then, I meet Mary and promise to help her before I know what I’m getting into. I can’t help myself. All it takes is one look into those amazing eyes. The Daisy and Pup teams have a strict no secrets or lies rule and by the end of this assignment, my life as I know it will be done and it will be back in the gutters with the actual rats. So, falling for Mary? It’s a bad idea. It’s a terrible idea. But, lately, I’m the king of terrible ideas...
