  *Stars of the hit television series The Casketeers, as seen on Netflix* 
    
  Francis and Kaiora Tipene aren't your typical funeral directors. With their famous humour and big-hearted personalities, the TVNZ and Netflix reality TV stars are changing the way we think about death and grief. 
  Life as a Casketeer reveals how Francis and Kaiora grew up in families that had few possessions but were rich with love and tikanga, and how they came to work in their often misunderstood profession. It's also a book about the Maori world view and traditional funeral customs. The Tipenes make death feel less mysterious and life feel more precious. 
  But most of all, Life as a Casketeer is a love story - for whanau, for culture and for each other. It is full of joy and sorrow, tears and laughter.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
   A fresh, powerful look at the world’s first family—and what their story means for us today. 
  The First Family – Adam and Eve: Exploring the Roots of Humanity reintroduces readers to Adam and Eve with new insight, depth, and relevance. Rev. Dr. Milton A. Hathaway skillfully blends biblical wisdom, pastoral experience, and community leadership to uncover timeless truths hidden in the earliest pages of Scripture. 
  Through clear teaching and practical reflection, Dr. Hathaway reveals how the story of the first family speaks to the core issues we face now: identity, purpose, relationships, temptation, accountability, forgiveness, and the hope of redemption. Far from a distant ancient narrative, their journey becomes a roadmap for strengthening marriages, nurturing families, healing divisions, and building healthier communities. 
  Written with clarity and compassion, this book invites readers to grow deeper in faith and to rediscover God’s design for wholeness—personally and collectively. It is both a spiritual guide and a practical resource for individuals, small groups, congregations, and leaders committed to shaping a more just and hope-filled Beloved Community.

  Guts - A memoir of food failure...

  Gold Logie-nominated TV personality and food icon Melissa Leong bites down on her demons in this searing memoir, exploring themes of abuse in the hospitality industry, racism, mental health and, for a light palate cleanser, the thrill of mouth-wateringly memorable food. Most of all, she inspires the courage to create a life you really, really want. 
   
  From Melissa Leong (aka fooderati) - the first female judge of MasterChef Australia and Dessert Masters, fashion obsessive and self-confessed contrarian - comes an evocative, sharp, darkly funny and often brutal account of what it's like to try, fail and scrape together the confidence to try again. She invites you to consider your own limiting self-beliefs ... and give them the finger. 
   
  These stories take place inside kitchens and television studios, on farms and even in an abattoir. Leong shares how her dream of being a concert pianist crumbled due to chronic pain, her struggles with racism and identity as a first-generation Singaporean Chinese woman, how blowing up her life to reset her path was maybe (definitely!) worth it, and why going your own way absolutely is. 
   
  Garnished with Leong's favourite recipes, Guts is above all a glorious love letter to food, to choosing the unpredictable path and to believing in yourself even - and especially - when the odds are stacked against you. 
   
  No guts, no glory. Hope you're hungry.

  Julia Child’s Kitchen - The...

  Julia Child's 20' x 14' kitchen was a serious workspace and recipe-testing lab that exuded a sense of mid-century homey comfort. Now, it has been on display at the National Museum of American History in Washington, DC, for most of the past twenty years. 
   
   
   
  Between lively narrative and detailed commentary on Julia's favorite kitchen gadgets, Julia Child's Kitchen illuminates the stories behind the room's design, use, significance, and legacy, showing how deeply Julia Child continues to influence food today. The kitchen contains more than one thousand parts and pieces—tools, appliances, utensils, furniture, artwork, knick-knacks, books, and bits of whimsy—all reflecting Julia's status as an accomplished chef, gastronome, delightful cooking teacher, television trailblazer, women's advocate, mentor, and generous, jovial friend. The kitchen's layout, design, and contents reflect Julia's philosophy of cooking as well as a period of social and cultural change in the United States, providing a platform for exploring such post-World War II themes as shifting attitudes about gender roles and domesticity or the tension between tradition and innovation regarding culinary tools, materials, cooking, and food itself. This book, a beautiful tribute to Julia Child's legacy, will be a must-listen for every home cook and Julia Child fan.
