Sinopsis

Cooking with Leftovers reimagines the way we view uneaten food, transforming scraps into culinary opportunities while tackling the global crisis of food waste. At its heart, the book champions a simple yet powerful idea: sustainability and creativity belong side by side in the kitchen. Blending environmental urgency with practical solutions, it reveals that one-third of all food produced worldwide goes to waste—a staggering statistic with both ecological and financial consequences. Through this lens, the book revives time-tested traditions from cultures like Italy (think ribollita) and India (chaat), showing how resourcefulness has always shaped delicious meals.

What sets this guide apart is its flexible, empowering approach. Instead of rigid recipes, it offers adaptable templates: roasted vegetables morph into frittatas or grain bowls, while proteins become global dishes like Thai larb or Italian risotto. Chapters build from foundational techniques—flavor balancing, safe storage—to strategic meal planning that intentionally creates "planned leftovers." The final sections provide themed meal blueprints, such as root-to-stem dinners, and inventive holiday leftover makeovers.

Written in a conversational tone, Cooking with Leftovers balances hard data with kitchen creativity, appealing to eco-conscious cooks and budget-minded families alike. By framing waste reduction as a gateway to culinary exploration, it turns everyday ingredients into inspiration, proving that sustainability can be both flavorful and fulfilling.

“Kelly Macdonald, in her naiveté, invited her mother and brother to the set while filming her sex scene with Ewan McGregor.” 
  
“Due to a tight budget, many scenes had to be shot in a single take.”

Writing Wrongly - The ongoing...

Thomas Corfield

"When the whole world's against you, at least it's something to lean on." 
When the worst writer in history self-publishes his books, the world of literature is decimated overnight. Illiteracy becomes something to aspire to and book burnings become rife. The publishing industry is left hemorrhaging credibility and teeters on the brink of collapse. Its recovery is not a matter of removing said books, or even destroying them: the same must be done to the mind responsible. 
Thomas may be the worst writer to have ever lived, but if he’s not careful, he won’t be doing much of that, either. 
This Sortabiography is the story of one writer against the entire publishing industry. There’s lots of swearing and temper tantrums, as well as a brand new psychiatric illness. There’s also an excellent café scene, which, although short, is worth mentioning. 
 “Dreadful. The title says it all. Except about it being dreadful. ” - Carmen Schneider. Acquisitions Editor, PBA. 
“The publishing industry is in upheaval, it’s true. But this just rubs balsamic vinegar into its wounds and garnishes it with slices of turd.” – Robert Tasher. MD, Banquet Press. 
“It’s ebooks like this that should have the internet banned.” - Malcolm Shrot-Faith, Literary Agent.

Dog Lessons - Learning the...

Hersch Wilson

"The world is a very narrow bridge. Cross it with a dog." 
 
 
 
"When in doubt, walk your dog" is the first of many valuable maxims in Dog Lessons, a heartfelt reflection on what dogs can teach us when we open ourselves to listen and learn. After sixty-plus years living and working with dogs, Hersch Wilson shares self-deprecating stories and lighthearted musings on a life filled with fur-covered furniture, unexplained messes, and destroyed property. The resulting compendium of dog wisdom—from universal values like loyalty and curiosity to practical lessons on napping, playing, and avoiding a serious fight—is not only poignant but eminently good advice.
