Joseph Shuldiner

Summary

“Living proof of the delicious and wholesome nature of vegan cooking . . . highlights how plant-based whole foods nourish both body and soul.” —Medium

Pure Vegan proves that embracing a vegan lifestyle can be stylish and beautiful via seventy recipes that are both plant-based and indulgent. The only vegan cookbook that celebrates eating and enjoyment rather than emphasizing the politics of a vegan lifestyle, this beautiful compilation features novel, vivacious recipes. Yes, they’re non-meat-egg-dairy, and they’re fabulous! Pure ingredients and unique combinations appeal to meat lovers and committed vegans alike. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks are represented, and a special chapter is dedicated to late-night indulgences such as chocolate truffles and herbal cocktails. Seventy-five gorgeous pictures round out this fetching package.

“Shuldiner has pulled off something of a miracle with his new book . . . You’ll find no bizarre attempts to mimic meat . . . [He] has no agenda other than cooking up pure deliciousness. The recipes in this book just happen to be vegan.” —Root Simple

“What we eat is intensely personal and hackles can go up quickly when discussing things like where our food comes from—but the way he approaches this is one of simple exploration. Finding what works for you. He makes plant-based cooking approachable. And that is appealing.” —The Artful Appetite

“[An] extraordinary cookbook . . . every page is a treat.” —Vibrant Foodie

The Trouble with Brunch - Work...

Shawn Micallef

One of The Globe and Mail's Globe 100: Best Books of 2014
   
Every weekend, in cities around the world, bleary-eyed diners wait in line to be served overpriced, increasingly outrÃ© food by hungover waitstaff. For some, the ritual we call brunch is a beloved pastime; for others, a bedeviling waste of time. But what does its popularity say about shifting attitudes towards social status and leisure? In some ways, brunch andother forms of conspicuous consumption have blinded us to ever-more-precarious employment conditions. For award-winning writer and urbanist Shawn Micallef, brunch is a way to look more closely at the nature of work itself and a catalyst for solidarity among the so-called creative class.
   
Drawing on theories from Thorstein Veblen to Richard Florida, Micallef traces his own journey from the rust belt to a cosmopolitan city where the evolving middle class he joined was obliviousto its own instability and insularity.
   
The Trouble with Brunch is a provocative analysis of foodie obsession and status anxiety, but it's also a call to reset our class consciousness. The real trouble with brunch isn't so much bad service and outsized portions of bacon, it's that brunch could be so much more.Â 
   
'At the crux of it, Micallef's issue with brunch is a lack of self-awareness, and his book is essentially a call to arms to consider the implications of one's actions, even for something as innocuous as meeting friends for eggs and mimosas.'

Praise for Shawn Micallef:
   
‘As Toronto grows into a more mature, more compelling city, a new group of non-academic, street-smart urbanists has emerged to appreciate it – with-it young writers, architects and men and women about town who love big cities and see things in Toronto that most of usmiss. Shawn Micallef is one of the sharpest of this sharp-eyed breed.’
   
– Globe and Mail
   
‘A smart and intimate guide to the city that makes you feel like an insider from start to finish.’
   
– Douglas Coupland [on Stroll]

Glamping with MaryJane

MaryJane Butters

“Glamour camping . . . is about the juxtaposition of rugged and really pretty, grit and glam, diesel and absolutely darling.”—The New York Times   Glamping—unleashing your inner wild while wearing a pair of fishing-lure earrings—is for every woman (or man!) who ever had a get-away-from-it-all fantasy (with a few frilly embellishments thrown in). Learn about the never-fail campfire, cooking with cast iron, how to change a flat, and much, much more.    Like the infamous Calamity Jane, who said, “I figure if a girl wants to be a legend, she should go ahead and be one,” MaryJane Butters coined the term glamping years ago when she founded her unusual Idaho canvas wall-tent bed & breakfast, which was featured in The New York Times Magazine and Travel & Leisure as “the place to be.” Legend status achieved, MaryJane lives in Moscow, Idaho, where she runs her many businesses, which include a successful organic farm, product lines, a bed & breakfast, and MaryJanesFarm magazine. This is her fourth book.   “One busy, hectic afternoon in my house, I sat down to take a quick peek at Glamping. Over two hours later, I was still reading, blissfully lost in MaryJane’s beautiful world. I’m dying over this book. I absolutely, positively LOVE IT!”—Ree Drummond, New York Times bestselling author of The Pioneer Woman Cooks
