Landing in Oklahoma City, he decides to check out the food in The Big Friendly by using food delivery apps to see what the city's residents are eating. In this work of gonzo journalism, Charles finds some of the tastiest and most unique dishes he has ever tasted while doing food delivery.

    Plan a wedding that reflects your commitment—to each other and to the things you truly value. 
     
    How you and your partner plan your wedding can set a precedent for how you will be as a family. How do you work together to merge two different sets of ideas into something bigger and better? How do you disagree in constructive rather than destructive ways? How do you honor the input and experience of family members while simultaneously maintaining ownership of your lives and choices?  
     
    In this part-memoir, part how-to handbook, popular wedding blogger Sara Cotner shares how you can resist the pressure to create the wedding of someone else's dreams and instead reclaim the real purposes of a wedding: community, connection, commitment, and fun.  
     
    A Priceless Wedding covers all the basics: securing a location, finding a dress, deciding on flowers, selecting a wedding party, planning the ceremony, choosing rings, and everything in between—but it goes beyond the elements of a "traditional" wedding to help you plan an eco-friendly, hand-crafted, budget-minded celebration that will be both memorable and meaningful. Featuring do-it-yourself projects that help you create your own unique wedding favors, sew a homemade wedding quilt, and more, this book will inspire you to begin your own traditions and rituals that will clarify your values and let you live them out loud.

    From No. 1 best selling Self-Help, Counselling and Travel author Pearl Howie – the audiobook of her mini-guide to Phoenix, Arizona.There’s a reason this place is called Phoenix.  We talk about awakening, awareness and other terms in healing, they’ve become quite the buzz words (along with “woke,”) but, for me, what I would call my awakening was a momentary death of ego and a rebirth of mind, body and spirit.Was it the firewalk, the driving, the teachers I met along the way?  …or just the Native American ritual in a world class spa?  I’ve experienced so many types of healing - all I know is that what works for one person is wrong for another.  Every body is different.Although I started writing these mini-guides to share the hotel, spa and the rest, the retreat in a box I dreamt of when I first began Pearl Escapes, they are also just stories ...for the unadventurous adventurer, as well as the keen explorer, we each have our own way of experiencing life.From the Amazon Best Selling author of the "Camino de la Luna" series and the Pearl Escapes guides."You will come away feeling as if she was sharing with you personally and will want to read more of her life adventures.”“I’ve just booked my first holiday in 13 years!”"To me, you are a hero... You have learned to take something negative in your life and make it a positive... a gift to others. It doesn't get any better than that. Don't doubt that you are capable of helping others... in terms of other of life's difficulties... What an adventure!"  Susan Jeffers, Ph.D., author of "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway"Not small, just travel size.

    “You may not have been aware of it, but zombies actually have some pretty strong opinions about things. . . . hilarious.” —Wired 
     
    Zombies hate clowns. They also hate hippies, not to mention zip lines, penguins, moon penguins, nudists, weddings, sharing, and kittens. They really hate unicorns, strangely don’t mind Canadians, and love YOU.  
     
    Greg Stones’s ghoulishly colorful paintings reveal funny and unexpected scenes of zombie disgruntlement, cataloging the stuff that really riles up the walking dead (astronauts, rain, bagpipes, re-gifting, and more) with wit, humor, and, of course, brains. Zombies Hate Stuff offers an irresistible perspective on the zombie apocalypse and the pop culture phenomenon that will not die.  
     
    “Stones’s panels have a cool way of collectively turning a grin into a chuckle (and perhaps, dare it be said, into a hearty guffaw). . . . When it comes to creating humor, Stones uses all the tricks of the trade.” —Publishers Weekly
