    Years ago, when O. Henry Prize-winning writer Crystal Wilkinson was baking a jam cake, she felt her late grandmother's presence. She soon realized that she was not the only cook in her kitchen; there were her ancestors, too, stirring, measuring, and braising alongside her. These are her kitchen ghosts, five generations of Black women who settled in Appalachia and made a life, a legacy, and a cuisine. 
     
     
     
    An expert cook, Wilkinson shares nearly forty family recipes rooted deep in the past, full of flavor—delicious favorites, including Corn Pudding, Chicken and Dumplings, Granny Christine's Jam Cake, and Praisesong Biscuits. Together, Praisesong for the Kitchen Ghosts honors the mothers who came before, the land that provided for generations of her family, and the untold heritage of Black Appalachia. 
     
     
     
    As the keeper of her family's stories and treasured dishes, Wilkinson shares her inheritance in Praisesong for the Kitchen Ghosts. She found their stories in her apron pockets, floating inside the steam of hot mustard greens, and tucked into the sweet scent of clove and cinnamon in her kitchen. Part memoir, part cookbook, Praisesong for the Kitchen Ghosts weaves those stories together with recipes and a lyrical imagination to present a culinary portrait of a family that has lived and worked the earth of the mountains for over a century.

    Calling all anglers, hunters, outdoorspeople, and cooks! Essential Fish and Game Cookbook is jam-packed with ways for you to enjoy mouthwatering, wholesome meals, from shore lunches to gourmet dinners using the fish you've caught and the wild game you've harvested. Recipes are made with locally sourced, seasonal ingredients and are user-friendly with few ingredients and preparation steps. Learn the differences in how to cook wild fish and game versus domestic game. For example, domestic turkeys can be cooked as one full piece and will be juicy and delicious; whereas wild turkeys need to be broken down and cooked in parts because the differences in muscle and fat require different times and temperatures. Author Scott Leysath, The Sporting Chef, also provides information on preparing fish and game, field care, processing, and storage. Prepare your catch and create delicious meals for you and your family.

    Who doesn’t enjoy a nice, hot cup of tea? A pastime of the kings, drinking tea has always been synonymous with afternoon relaxation and great conversation. What you might not realize is that tea, besides being delicious, also has therapeutic powers. That’s right! Herbal tea, especially, has been used for centuries as a natural remedy for various ailments, and it’s making a big comeback. 
    Herbal tea is created by steeping or decocting herbs, spices, or other plant materials, as opposed to traditional tea derived from the Camellia sinensis plant. It contains no caffeine and has been a natural remedy for thousands of years, dating back to ancient cultures in China, India, and Egypt. Many herbs used back then are still used for their healing properties today. Chamomile tea, for example, has anti- inflammatory and anti-anxiety properties, whereas ginger tea is famous for aiding digestion and reducing nausea. 
    Herbal teas provide numerous health advantages! They reduce stress and anxiety, improve digestion, promote better sleep, reduce inflammation, and promote healthy skin.
