Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The author identified from UK surveys foods that samples of people found distasteful. In twelvechapters the author goes into the history of the selected foods and why they are so dislikedby some of us yet enjoyed by people from other cultures. A few recipes are included in eachchapter that the author hopes will make foods like black pudding, seafood, olives, Marmite,Why would anyone write a book about foods that are disliked by lots of people Well, I find itfascinating that what is hated by some, ignored by many but is liked or even loved by others. Inthis book I have an introduction and twelve chapters on foods that do not score very highly inUK surveys about the most enjoyed items to eat. As you would expect, conversely they are allat the top of the heap for the most hated ones, Clearly, we are all individuals and, as such, ourtaste buds are different. However, restricted childhood family and school dinner eating habits,negative experiences of institutionally and industrially poorly prepared dishes, thought of asbeing too old fashioned, avoidance of what looks to be unpalatable, unwillingness to try foodsnot previously tasted, deskilling and spending less time in the kitchen are among the manyinfluencing factors that limit dietary flexibility.The twelve chapters on detested foods (by some) are in this order in the book - black puddingand haggis, shellfish, table olives, Marmite and similar commercial products, various types ofcheeses, Brussels sprouts and other brassicas, fungi, dried fruits, fortified wines, offal, pickleschutneys and relishes then ending up with blancmange, jelly and custard. Each chapter providesinformation about the origins and a history of the selected foods, addresses why they might bedisliked by some although not by others.In addition, I have included several recipes as an easy introduction to the delights of the detesteditem. Sadly, they may have little or no appeal to the committed haters, however they may justtempt some of the uncommitted to go into their kitchen and test out a food they were unsureabout by cooking one or more of the book's recipes. Each one is a home-style recipe fashionedto be easily made in a reasonable time. They are not cheffy dishes and mostly the disliked foodsare merely ingredients of simple meals. Indeed, I believe the recipes give an easy introductionto the delights of the controversial food Do read the background and origins of the foods inquestion and at least try one recipe before deciding whether or not the dish and the food is notfor you. Pretty please.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - In this book, CSM reframes Christian school enrollment as a mission discipline, not merely a marketing task. It shows leaders how to build exceptional retention, define 'full' with precision, and create a community where families are drawn to the school's purpose. Through practical tools, vivid examples, and deeply Christian insights, it reveals why enrollment thrives only when mission, data, discipline, and relationships work together. Readers will learn how to tell their school's story, partner authentically with parents, build strategic alignment with the Board, and create a culture where every seat is filled because every child is known, loved, and growing. This is the roadmap for Christian schools that want to flourish - spiritually, academically, and numerically - in a competitive and rapidly changing world.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'We need more writers like Billy Scrape, who write about all the darkness andall the beauty, who expose themselves at their worst while illuminating thetruthful, precious beauty of life. Love and terror, in ourselves and in the worldof humans and animals, and the stark godliness of planet Earth, these are hissubjects. He captures what makes each of us as unique as our fingerprints andall that is universal.'- PAULA BOMERauthor of Stalker and Inside MadeleineSomewhere west of the last porch light, America gets strange.There are county fairs and reservation roads, abandoned houses and back-roadgarages. There are brake failures, acid trips, wildflowers, leather jackets, junkyardmechanics, disappearances and arrivals.Moving between a feral young adulthood and middle age on the road with hisfamily, Billy Scrape writes about belonging and exile, damage and kindness,memory and impermanence, and the people who offer us shelter without everknowing how badly we need it.Some things disappear completely.Some leave a scorch mark.Some survive for twenty years in a carefully sealed can of paint.And sometimes, if you're lucky, someone simply looks up and says:Welcome back.…

The storefront waited, paint peeling around windowsthat still bore the faded outline of the old beauty salon sign.Every corner of this block carried weight, reminders of what hisfather had built here, and what Malik hoped to build differently.His father had held court on these very streets, a man peopleturned to when they needed answers or strength. Malik hadwatched from doorways as neighbors lined up outside theirapartments: Mrs. Chen with eviction papers, young fathersasking about work, elders needing someone to translateinsurance forms.His father's power was real, but it came with a cost Malikrecognized now but hadn't understood then. Every favor owedcreated another web; every problem solved meant ten morepeople at the door.Malik slowed his steps, the thoughts settling on him. His father'sinfluence had been powerful, yes, but transient, bound by thesame cycle he wanted to break.…
