  Forced from her downtown Manhattan apartment by the terrorist attack of September 11, journalist Wendy Bounds was delivered to Guinan's doorstep -- a legendary Irish drinking hole and country store nestled along the banks of the Hudson River in the small town of Garrison, New York -- by a friend.Captivated by the bar's charismatic but ailing owner and his charming, motley clientele, Bounds uprooted herself permanently and moved to tiny Garrison, the picturesque river town they all call home. There she became one of the rare female regulars at the old pub and was quickly swept up into its rhythm, heartbeat, and grand history -- as related by Jim Guinan himself, the stubborn high priest of this little chapel. Surrounded by a crew of endearing, delightfully colorful characters who were now her neighbors and friends, she slowly finds her own way home.Beautifully written, deeply personal, and brilliantly insightful, Little Chapel on the River is a love story about a place -- and the people who bring it to life.

  Orexi! - Feasting at the modern...

  A collection of over 80 classic and modern recipes from MasterChef semi-finalist Theo Michaels; paying homage to his heritage by championing new modern dishes inspired by the flavours of Greece and Cyprus.
  Kali orexi is the Greek equivalent of bon appétit and this enticing book will certainly whet your appetite! Organized in chapters entitled Meze, Sea, Land, Sun and Fire, Theo's recipes evoke a sense of connection to nature, seasonality, abundance and sociable eating. Fresh ingredients sing from the plate, from juicy watermelon and glossy kalamata olives, to fragrant oregano-roasted lamb and delicate vine-leaf-baked sea bass. Meze features mouth-watering small plates for sharing from whipped dips to meatballs. The sea is woven into Greek culture and seafood is a staple; enjoy the freshest fish and shellfish cooked simply and served with a squeeze of lemon juice. Meat is a huge part of the Greek diet – rabbit, goat, chicken, lamb are the mainstay with pork enjoyed at Easter celebrations. Cooking over charcoal is part of daily life. The Cypriots use a large rotisserie famous for its souvla (long skewer), while mainland Greece make souvlaki and both BBQ and oven-roasted dishes are included here. Greek yogurt, along with artisan cheeses (feta, halloumi etc.) can be eaten hot (saganaki) or shaved into vibrant salads and the traditions of 'horta' means there are plenty of vegetable dishes to enjoy. Finally, Greek desserts are often just a sweet note to savour with a bitter black coffee or you may prefer a Greek-inspired cocktail such as an Ouzo Sour.

  Explore The Various Benefits Of Green Smoothie Recipes And Use them To Improve Your Health And Quality Of Life  
  There are many advantages of drinking green smoothies. Sure, you're going to get more fruit and vegetables. Nonetheless, you will also find an increase in your metabolism, smoother hair, a fall in weight and even a better mood. People who follow the raw food diet have turned to green smoothies to boost a diet that is already nutritious, and many find the vitality and sense of well-being they want. 
  If you've never tried a green smoothie cleanse before, you're heading for a completely new level of wellness and energy. It may be overwhelming to pick up a glass containing a thick green liquid and drink it down, but the fact is that green smoothies do not taste anything that is different from blue, orange, red and yellow. The main difference is one of food and fiber rather than that of taste. The green color of the smoothies comes from chlorophyll. You probably learned in middle school that this is the color that helps plants perform photosynthesis; it is also this color that connects to the toxins in your system at a molecular level and pulls them out one at a time. 
  Green smoothies effectively detoxify your body, leaving you healthy and strong. This book will instruct you in how to reap the benefits of green smoothies. In addition to becoming more glamorous and radiant, you end up getting your desired weight. 
  Here Is A Preview Of What You Will Learn:Why Is It So Important To Eat Your Greens?Is Your Green Smoothie Actually Healthy And Balanced?Benefits Of Green SmoothiesHow To Make A Green SmoothieThe Best Liquid Bases For SmoothiesGreen Smoothies Vs. JuicesGreen Smoothie CleanseDetoxing Cleanse Foods

  A rollicking exploration of the history and future of our favorite foods
  		 
  When we humans love foods, we love them a lot. In fact, we have often eaten them into extinction, whether it is the megafauna of the Paleolithic world or the passenger pigeon of the last century. In Lost Feast, food expert Lenore Newman sets out to look at the history of the foods we have loved to death and what that means for the culinary paths we choose for the future. Whether it’s chasing down the luscious butter of local Icelandic cattle or looking at the impacts of modern industrialized agriculture on the range of food varieties we can put in our shopping carts, Newman’s bright, intelligent gaze finds insight and humor at every turn. 
  		 
  Bracketing the chapters that look at the history of our relationship to specific foods, Lenore enlists her ecologist friend and fellow cook, Dan, in a series of “extinction dinners” designed to recreate meals of the past or to illustrate how we might be eating in the future. Part culinary romp, part environmental wake-up call, Lost Feast makes a critical contribution to our understanding of food security today. You will never look at what’s on your plate in quite the same way again.
