    Join Margaret Feinberg, one of America's most beloved teachers and writers, as she sets out on a remarkable journey to unearth God's perspective on food. What you discover will forever change the way you read the Bible--and approach every meal.  
This groundbreaking book provides a culinary exploration of Scripture. You'll descend 400 feet below ground into the frosty white caverns of a salt mine, fish on the Sea of Galilee, bake fresh matzo at Yale University, ferry to a remote island in Croatia to harvest olives, spend time with a Texas butcher known as "the meat apostle," and wander a California farm with one of the world's premier fig farmers. With each stop, Margaret asks, "How do you read these Scriptures, not as theologians, but in light of what you do every day?" 
Taste and See teaches us that:As we break bread, we find the satisfaction of our deepest hungers in the community our souls craveAs we share our lives, we taste and see God's fruitfulnessWhen we're tempted to lose heart--and we all will be--we find courage in listening to and participating in stories of God's rescuing waysIn the midst of a busy life, we can all create space to taste and see God's goodness 
  
Taste and See is a delicious read that includes dozens of recipes for those who, like Margaret, believe some of life's richest moments are spent savoring a meal with those you love. See you around the table!

    Defeat chaos with this supportive guide to household organization from a pair of reformed slobs.   Pam Young and Peggy Jones—aka the Slob Sisters—used to find basic housekeeping a complex concept akin to quantum physics. Chaos (Can’t Have Anyone Over Syndrome) reigned over their homes and their lives—until one day, they made a vow to reform.   Armed with 3x5 index cards, a battle plan, and grim determination, they found a way to get their act together. In this empathetic, lighthearted guide, they share a program that even the worst slobs can master—a plan that allows for some much-needed breathing room in your space and in your schedule.   “Maintaining that most organization manuals are written by the naturally efficient who can’t empathize with the born slob, Young and Jones tell their own stories of the overwhelming messes their households had become and of their recovery…Their methods are simple and easy to follow.” —Library Journal

    The Manhattan Cocktail - A...

    History, lore, and over fifty recipes in a “compulsively readable book about a classic American cocktail” (Susan Reigler, author of Kentucky Bourbon Country). 
 
Alongside such classics as the Old Fashioned, Mint Julep, and Martini, the Manhattan has been a staple of the sophisticated bar scene since the nineteenth century. Never out of style, this iconic drink has seen a renaissance in the craft cocktail movement, with a boost from TV's Mad Men. In theory, the recipe is simple: a mixture of whiskey, vermouth, and bitters stirred with ice, strained, and presented in a cocktail glass garnished with a cherry. But the exact ingredients and proportions—as well as the drink’s true origins—inspire great debate. 
 
In this guide, Albert W. A. Schmid dispels myths, including the tale that the Manhattan was created in 1874 by bartenders at New York City's Manhattan Club to honor the newly elected Governor Tilden at Lady Randolph Churchill’s request. Schmid also explores places and people that have contributed to the drink’s popularity and inspired its lore, including J. P. Morgan, who enjoyed a Manhattan every day at the end of trading on Wall Street. 
 
The Manhattan Cocktail also examines the effects of various bourbons and whiskeys on the aroma and flavor, even answering the age-old question of “shaken or stirred?” With over fifty recipes as well as notes and anecdotes from personalities ranging from renowned mixologist Dale DeGroff to writer Sir Kingsley Amis, it will delight both the cocktail novice and the seasoned connoisseur.
