Summary

The Wall Street Journal bestselling Southern author of A Time to Celebrate shares refreshing beverage recipes for every occasion—no alcohol required!  Sip & Savor features delectable non-alcoholic libations perfect for parties or for relaxing at home. Fruity drinks and creamy milkshakes combine with teas infused with garden herbs for dressing up your next tete-a-tete. In these pages, James Farmer will teach you how to build your drinks from the bottom up—with simple syrup recipes that capture the flavors of the seasons. You’ll also get tea-brewing tips (for that perfect Sweet Tea) and the secrets to perfect cordials, punches, and slushes that make any get-together unforgettable. A few special cake and breads recipes, plus stories and history, capture the traditional experience of entertaining on the porch.  Praise for James T. Farmer and his books   “A Southern gentleman who’s just as charming in the garden as he is in the kitchen. He’s compiled all his botanical experiences into A Time to Plant.”—Harper’s Bazaar   “A Time to Cook, A Time to Plant and A Time to Celebrate are titles of three of his books that inspire readers to cultivate, decorate and salivate over their own efforts in the kitchen. His books contain descriptive text combined with colorful photographs and garden-to-table recipes.”—The Virginian-Pilot

    The remarkable story of a refugee from Soviet Ukraine who found his way to upstate New York—and changed the American wine industry. Dr. Konstantin Frank forever changed the palate of American wine. Forced from his home in Soviet Ukraine during World War II, he was astounded by the terroir when he arrived in the Finger Lakes region, an agricultural scientist from a foreign land desperately looking for work. Against popular notions, he believed that the vinifera grapes that produced some of Europe’s and California’s finest wines would prosper in this part of New York State, but was met with skepticism and resistance.   He proved his detractors wrong, and because he shared his knowledge freely with others, Konstantin’s innovativeness has allowed the region to produce some of the world’s finest Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and other varietals. Four generations of Franks have continued his legacy, and their winery has won record numbers of prestigious awards every year. This book tells the inspiring story.  Includes photographs

    Volumes four through six in Canal House Cooking’s seasonal recipes series, including mouthwatering dishes for the novice and experienced cook alikeCanal House Cooking Volumes Four Through Six is a collection of some of our favorite recipes, the ones we cook for ourselves, our friends, and our families during the summer, fall, and right through the holiday season. They’ll make you want to run straight to the store, market, kitchen, or out to the grill and start cooking.  In Farm Markets and Gardens we live in the season by shopping at farmers’ markets and roadside tables, and gathering the very freshest vegetables from our own gardens. Join us as a “salt-and-pepper cook,” making simple yet intensely flavorful dishes such as tomato salad and berry cobbler. In The Good Life we toast the good life and cook lots of big, delicious food. We turn out classic pâtés and terrines; top buckwheat blini with smoked salmon and trout roe; tuck black truffles under the skin of our roasted chicken. We fry apple fritters in the fall and decorate sugar cookies for the holidays.  Finally, good cooking relies on good shopping, so in The Grocery Store we buy smoked fish to make a delicious creamy stew. Bunches of fat local asparagus go into our shopping cart—we cook them simply and bathe them in a luscious lemon-butter sauce. We choose hearty escarole and tender young spinach and stock up on bags of frozen peas and fava beans to use in so many ways. We buy succulent rhubarb for an early spring tonic or for an Easter dessert, roasted and spooned over crisp meringues.

    Advanced health information for ketogenic dieters you cannot afford to miss out on! During the course of my life, I have found the ketogenic diet to be useful and insightful. But so many additional resources and medical facts are missing. This is one of the primary reasons why I have decided to enlighten listeners with specific pieces of knowledge about low-carb fasting and the use of certain foods. I have included chapters that address some of the following important questions: How do you track your progress when you are on a ketogenic diet? What are the consequences for cancer and other diseases?  Should your focus be on counting calories? Are all grains bad? And if not, which ones are and which ones are not? Is it advisable for children to participate in a ketogenic lifestyle? What are the effects of processed sugar? What causes inflammation in the human body, and how can it be prevented? Which benefits are there in intermittent fasting? Should one pay particular attention to certain ketogenic-friendly foods when going to a restaurant? These and other issues will be the core of this science-based, well-outlined audiobook about the ketogenic diet. It is my hope that you will learn as much as I have in my time period of research and that you will be encouraged and educated about making more intelligent decisions related to your nutritional behavior. Add this audiobook to your cart. You will not regret it.
