  Discover the culinary heritage of South Carolina’s famous port city with this guide to historic restaurants that have come and gone.   Once a sleepy city of taverns and coffeehouses, Charleston evolved into a culinary powerhouse of innovative chefs and restaurateurs. Jessica Surface, founder of Chow Down Charleston Food Tours, celebrates the city’s rich cultural history in Lost Restaurants of Charleston.   The origins of she-crab soup trace back through Everett’s Restaurant. The fine dining of Henry’s evolved from a Prohibition-era speakeasy. Desserts were flambéed from the pulpit of a deconsecrated church at Chapel Market Place, and Robert’s hosted Charleston’s famous singing chef. From blind tigers to James Beard Awards, Surface explores the stories and sites that give Charleston its unique flavor.

  “There isn’t a single soup . . . that doesn’t sound delectable . . . quite impressive considering none of [the] recipes contains more than three grams of fat.” —Publishers Weekly 
   
  There is no better way to tap into today’s soup craze than with this glorious cookbook, filled with more than 100 deliciously low-fat soup recipes. Author Judith Barrett lost pounds and inches using these mouthwatering recipes, each of which contains less than three grams of fat per serving. Cutting the fat posed no bar to creating soups with incredible flavor—Black Mushroom and Spinach Wonton Soup and Creamy Fennel Soup with Shrimp both contain only one gram of fat. 
   
  Barrett offers soups to be savored for every season. In the fall, Creamy Carrot Soup or Roasted Beet Borscht will delight you. Winter Squash Soup with Thyme or Real Gumbo with Okra and Chicken is sure to take the edge off the cold during the snowy months. Come springtime, there is Vidalia Onion Soup or Arugula Vichyssoise, and to beat the summertime heat, make a batch of Cool Cucumber and Yogurt Soup or Creamy Tomato Bisque with Shallots and Tarragon.  
   
  Soups “from the sea,” like Mediterranean Fish Stew and New York Red Clam Chowder, will leave a briny tingle on your palate. If it’s legumes you crave, try: Lentil and Portobello Mushroom Soup or Miami Black Bean Soup. Or experiment with the variety of international soup recipes that are offered, from Chinese Cabbage Soup with Cellophane Noodles to Italian Minestra of Swiss Chard and Rice. 
   
  “Not just for the diet shelf, this attractive book, with many full-page color photographs, is recommended for most collections.” —Library Journal

  Healthy habits

  When you take a permissive pattern and increase the shoulds by putting rules on it, you can actually start to lose the urge to do it. Especially if your unconscious mind feels that those rules are not ‘on its side’. 
  I call this the ‘rule hack’ and it works wonders for unfriending those pesky habits you’ve had a love/hate relationship with. 
  The rule hack is often a method used by hypnotherapists and NLP practitioners to help clients quit smoking. They get the client to agree to only smoke according to certain rules. An example is to get the client to agree that each time they smoke a cigarette, they must hold it between their pinkie and ring finger. 
  On the surface, this doesn’t seem like a huge change to the pattern, but when the smoker actually complies with this new rule, it no longer feels the same. Its not just the physically awkward sensation, but also the emotional change that breaks the pattern. 
  Most therapists who use the rule hack don’t usually teach the client any growth mindset hacks. So what typically happens soon after is that the need to depressurise becomes transferred onto another habit. Especially a habit with similar associations and patterns. A habit, say for example, that also involves placing something into the mouth for comfort during break times. 
  this explains why people tend to get hooked on comfort food and put on a bit of weight after they quit smoking and times of stress. Consciously, they just think its their appetite that’s increased. But comfort eating is when you crave the sensation of feeling full even when you’re not especially hungry.  
  If you want to learn how to trick your mind into getting healthy, creating better eating habits, a healthier diet and more motivation to exercise this book is for you. This really is the first diet and nutrition book that looks at mental health, the only book currently digging deep on down into the psychology of bad, unwanted and unhealthy habits.
