The Young Cook

American Antiquarian Cookbook Collection

Summary

 Although the author of this collection is anonymous, her intention was clearly stated on the title page of the book—a thousand practical ways to make good cakes, pies, puddings, and more for the young, inexperienced cook. True to her word, the cookbook is extremely thorough, covering not only the following categories, but including dozens and dozens of recipes for all types of baked goods: cakes, pastry, buns, biscuits, custards, ice cream and ices, tarts, crumpets, puddings, muffins, candy, breads, and more. The back of the book contains advertisements from local merchants for dancing instruction, telegraph service, joke books, and a book titled The Little Flirt, with secrets of handkerchief, glove, fan, and parasol flirtations—a fascinating window on lifestyles of the day. This edition of The Young Cook was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the Society is a research library documenting the life of Americans from the colonial era through 1876. The Society collects, preserves, and makes available as complete a record as possible of the printed materials from the early American experience. The cookbook collection includes approximately 1,100 volumes.

Ralph Engeler, Anima Sound...

The meditation "Live free of Allergies" will help you in the process of activating your self-healing powers. With the help of this meditation, you learn to bring your physical body, your emotional body and your energy body into harmony and thus strengthen your immune system. Allergy symptoms such as constant sneezing, runny nose, red eyes, shortness of breath, skin rash and food intolerances can be overbearing. On top, you may also feel weak, exhausted and lack motivation. Allergies are often extreme reactions of an immune system that is overburdened. By means of our meditation, we like to support you in your endeavors to improve your situation. During your meditative journey, you will receive very helpful instructions on how to bring your inner immune system dissonance back into harmony and balance. We have created a short and a long version of the meditation for you. The short version is especially suitable for people with time constraints and those who are not yet practiced in long meditations, but still want to engage in enhancing their system. You will be able to calm your mind and raise your energy even with the short meditation, so that your immune system receives your support. The long version of "Live free of Allergies" allows you to raise the energy and coherence in your body even further, so that your body can produce its own chemical substances that enhance your immune defense system. Repeated mediations, especially with the long version, will help you create a new strong and resistant energy body, that protects you from disturbing external factors. A healthy diet will also support your improvements. It is recommended to do these anti-allergy meditations in combination with the meditation for body detoxification, so that you can create a healthy environment in your digestive system, which plays a great role for the immune system. We recommend using headphones during these meditations. In this way, you can absorb the positive effect of the spoken words on an even deeper level of your subconscious. SAFETY NOTE: You should never listen to these meditations while driving a car or operating machinery. The best place is sitting in a comfortable armchair, or otherwise lying down.

Ketogenic Diet for Beginners -...

Grizzly Publishing

Most of us KNOW that what we eat on a day to day basis probably isn’t quite as good as it could be, but that doesn’t really help us.
And I should know – because I was there.
For years I struggled with my diet. It didn’t really matter what way of eating I followed, I never felt particularly good, I rarely had any energy, and I was rendered completely unable to make the changes to my body that I really desired.
And as a personal trainer who regularly gave out dietary advice… well, let’s just say that it didn’t sit all that well with me.
Fortunately, a very close friend of mine introduced me to some interesting research around the Ketogenic diet. While I was certainly a bit skeptical at first, I was also willing to try absolutely anything to make the changes that I wanted to make.
So I did try it…
And the rest (as they say) is history.
After introducing the ketogenic diet into my lifestyle, I started to feel a lot better on a daily basis. This came with increased energy combined with some pretty positive changes in my physical appearance (if I do say so myself...).
After having a heap of success with both myself and many of my clients, I thought this might be something that could help others who had experienced similar problems.
So here is the solution.
In the following book you will find:
The science behind the ketogenic dietHow the ketogenic can maximize health AND weight loss
A guide explaining HOW you can implement the ketogenic diet into your life
A troubleshooting guide on how to use the ketogenic diet
While I can give you the HOW, it is entirely up to you to make this change. The information in this book has the capacity to change your life if are ready to take the jump and give it a shot.
