The remainder of the book offers 20 "recipes" grouped by category: fruits, breakfast, lunch and dinner, sweets and snacks, and holiday foods. Each recipe has a list of "ingredients," step-by-step directions with photographs, and suggested variations. Each piece is presented as a particular finished jewelry item, such as a necklace, but readers are encouraged to adapt the piece into any type of jewelry they choose.

Throughout, the authors--who are sisters--share their enthusiasm for family, sisterhood, and the tradition and feelings surrounding our favorite foods.

Book excerpt: 12 crochet patterns included! Make a mini cactus/succulent garden! If you have never crocheted before, NO PROBLEM. Everyone has to start somewhere. In this book, we will be going step by step through ten cute little amigurumi crochet patterns. Also included are basic stitch tutorials to help you along the way.Patterns for:12 mini crochet amigurumi cacti!What started as something to pass the time during quarantine has turned into so much more. These toys bring me joy when I make them and even more when I give them away. I hope that my creations will bring you and your lucky loved ones hours of happiness as well. When I first started, it took me a week just to figure out how to make a ball. It took even longer to get my fingers and hands used to holding a crochet hook. Crocheting can be frustrating at first but like with all things new, your body will develop muscle memory and over time, you will find that it will get easier. Always remember that nothing is hard, only new. There is no right way or wrong way to crochet. Whatever works for you, your body, and your ability is the right way. Crochet is an art form and like all art forms, is open to personal interpretation. Crochet patterns function as guidelines only, and I encourage you to bring your own artistic flair to each pattern. Do not be afraid to use different hooks or types of yarn. Experiment by changing the colors. Add accessories, modify the body shape, and bring your own individual spice to each pattern. Sometimes it will work; most of the time, it will not, and that is perfectly fine because in the end, you will end up with something that is yours. Something that you created. Your own little knotmonster.

Download or read book The Lampshade written by Mark Jacobson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-09-14 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few growing up in the aftermath of World War II will ever forget the horrifying reports that Nazi concentration camp doctors had removed the skin of prisoners to makes common, everyday lampshades. In The Lampshade, bestselling journalist Mark Jacobson tells the story of how he came into possession of one of these awful objects, and of his search to establish the origin, and larger meaning, of what can only be described as an icon of terror. Jacobson’s mind-bending historical, moral, and philosophical journey into the recent past and his own soul begins in Hurricane Katrina–ravaged New Orleans. It is only months after the storm, with America’s most romantic city still in tatters, when Skip Henderson, an old friend of Jacobson’s, purchases an item at a rummage sale: a very strange looking and oddly textured lampshade. When he asks what it’s made of, the seller, a man covered with jailhouse tattoos, replies, “That’s made from the skin of Jews.” The price: $35. A few days later, Henderson sends the lampshade to Jacobson, saying, “You’re the journalist, you find out what it is.” The lampshade couldn’t possibly be real, could it? But it is. DNA analysis proves it. This revelation sends Jacobson halfway around the world, to Yad Vashem in Jerusalem and to the Buchenwald concentration camp in Germany, where the lampshades were supposedly made on the order of the infamous “Bitch of Buchenwald,” Ilse Koch. From the time he grew up in Queens, New York, in the 1950s, Jacobson has heard stories about the human skin lampshade and knew it to be the ultimate symbol of Nazi cruelty. Now he has one of these things in his house with a DNA report to prove it, and almost everything he finds out about it is contradictory, mysterious, shot through with legend and specious information. Through interviews with forensic experts, famous Holocaust scholars (and deniers), Buchenwald survivors and liberators, and New Orleans thieves and cops, Jacobson gradually comes to see the lampshade as a ghostly illuminator of his own existential status as a Jew, and to understand exactly what that means in the context of human responsibility. One question looms as his search goes on: what to do with the lampshade—this unsettling thing that used to be someone? It is a difficult dilemma to be sure, but far from the last one, since once a lampshade of human skin enters your life, it is very, very hard to forget.
Download or read book Knotmonsters written by Michael Cao and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-09-11 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¡12 patrones de crochet incluidos! Si nunca antes ha tejido a ganchillo, NO HAY PROBLEMA. Todo el mundo tiene que empezar por algún lado. En este libro, vamos a ir paso a paso a través de diez lindos patrones de ganchillo amigurumi. También se incluyen tutoriales básicos de puntadas para ayudarlo en el camino. Patrones para muchas plantas de interior diferentes: Echeveria suculenta Sansevieria (planta de serpiente) Bambú de la suerte Aloe vera Palmera Venus atrapamoscas Árbol Sedum suculento Árbol bonsai Plantas colgantes x 3 Lo que comenzó como algo para pasar el tiempo durante la cuarentena se ha convertido en mucho más. Estos juguetes me alegran cuando los hago y más aún cuando los regalo. Espero que mis creaciones les traigan a usted y a sus afortunados seres queridos horas de felicidad también. Cuando comencé, me tomó una semana descubrir cómo hacer una pelota. Me tomó aún más tiempo acostumbrar mis dedos y manos a sostener un ganchillo. Tejer a ganchillo puede ser frustrante al principio, pero al igual que con todas las cosas nuevas, su cuerpo desarrollará la memoria muscular y, con el tiempo, descubrirá que se volverá más fácil. Recuerda siempre que nada es difícil, solo nuevo. No existe una forma correcta o incorrecta de tejer a crochet. Todo lo que funcione para usted, su cuerpo y su capacidad es el camino correcto. El crochet es una forma de arte y, como todas las formas de arte, está abierto a la interpretación personal. Los patrones de ganchillo funcionan solo como pautas, y te animo a que aportes tu propio estilo artístico a cada patrón. No tenga miedo de usar diferentes ganchos o tipos de hilo. Experimente cambiando los colores. Agregue accesorios, modifique la forma del cuerpo y agregue su propio sabor individual a cada patrón. A veces funcionará; la mayoría de las veces, no será así, y eso está perfectamente bien porque al final, terminarás con algo que es tuyo. Algo que creaste. Tu propio pequeño knotmonster.
