Author: Akili Kumasi

Fun Meals for Fathers & Sons is a creative and fun collection of meals and activities. Easy & Fun. Fun Meals is a recipe for adventure that results in bonding, mentoring and creating memories.

The best time to start teaching your children is not once they have gotten into trouble or left the house. It is when their minds and hearts are open to hear from you at a young age.

Children love to learn. Discovery is what life is about for them. What they discover should be for their benefit - and it will be - if you teach them life principles in both formal and informal settings. Fun Meals takes the stress out of the situation. I love to tell my sons stories when we are hanging out, doing things or driving in the car. They are willing and thankful to receive wisdom - if I am willing to impart it!

Oodle Doodles Tuna Noodle and Other Salad Recipes or Chocolates Sweets and Candies

Oodle Doodles Tuna Noodle and Other Salad Recipes

Author: Kristi Johnson

Dose a classic lettuce salad sound boring to you? With ingrediemts like apples, marshmallows, and even candy bars, these salads are anything but boring. They're tons of fun to make and eat. You'll be serving up a tasty dish in no time with these yummy and easy-to-make recipes.

Children's Literature

Part of a new series, "Fun Food for Cool Cooks" these handsome titles are going to jump into the hands of kids (and grownups) because of the simple recipes, easy directions (usually one sentence per step), large print, enticing photographs of the finished food attractively presented, and a tone that says to kids, "You can DO this!" Every recipe has a star-rating from one to three to show difficulty, a list of ingredients (in small print, however), and pictures in each recipe of the tools to be used during the preparation (a first in cookbooks!). The recipes are titled enticingly and closely fit the theme of each cookbook. Each book includes Facthound.com information, a glossary, an index, a quick bio of the author (in a toque), a few books to lead kids into more reading, and a standard picture book trim size that will draw in older readers as well as the targeted age group (elementary) because of the photos. In this salad treasury you will find recipes for "Oodle Doodles Tuna Noodle Salad" ( a pasta and tuna affair), "Rainbow Fruit Salad" (mixed berry compote in a tall glass), "Sweet Summer Potato Salad" (it has grapes in it as well as chow mein noodles), "Candy Bar Salad" (apples are the only living thing in this one), "Pepperoni Pizza Salad" (lettuce instead of pizza crust), "Mexican Fiesta Salad" (taco salad), "Triple Cheese and Macaroni Salad" (mac and cheese with tomatoes), "Apple and Worm Salad" (it has an apple as the container and a gummy worm hanging out), "Creamy Dreamy Cloud Salad" (fruit cocktail and Cool Whip with a few other ingredients), and last but not least, "Asian Chicken Salad" (with ramen and chicken nuggets). Every recipe also includes a sidebar of "tasty tips" toadd variations or some nice little trivia tidbit kids will like. The "Kitchen Safety" section at the front of each book is conversational and sensible and encourages kids to actually DO things. Unlike many cookbooks, it advises kids to have a First Aid kit in the kitchen too. The front page features a kid photo alongside metric conversions (does anybody ever USE these, I wonder?). These are among the most attractive cookbooks for kids I have seen and would be appropriate for elementary, middle, and early high school readers with nary a complaint from a kid.

Adorable Zucchini: More Magic than the Pumpkin

Author: Naomi Barry

During their prime season, zucchini seem to spring up overnight. They grow with such abandon that on a dewy morning one might well scream, Heaven's to Betsy, what am I supposed to do with them? Pick them, my dear, at once. And enjoy them. Elizabeth David, the celebrated British gastronomic writer, championed the cause of baby zucchini so forcefully that growers actually bowed to her wishes. Her influence was equally felt by the public. In the Oxford Companion to Food, Alan Davidson wrote that zucchini only became popular in England after Elizabeth David in the 1950s and l960s had introduced them to readers of her books.

At Freedoms Table or Everyone Can Cook

At Freedom's Table: More than 200 Years of Receipts and Remembrances from Military Wives

Author: Carolyn Quick Tillery

At Freedom's Table is a collection of recipes, anecdotal stories, and vintage photographs tracing the history and unique contributions of American military wives. Beginning with an Independence Tea Party featuring the foods served by the women of Edenton, North Carolina, at a party on October 25, 1774, it recreates the scenes and foods that recount the stories of the commitments and sacrifice that military wives have given the nation for more than two hundred years.

Presented in menu format, each chapter includes a story that relates to a group of recipes evocative of the period in which the story is set. Some chapters recreate recipes from a historic account, such as "A Colonial Thanksgiving" and "Christmas in the Confederate White House," both of which describe holidays celebrated under wartime conditions. Others are of the international foods they have learned to enjoy from such places as Morocco, Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Japan, and Korea. The book is divided into six large sections: Teas and Coffees; Buffets, Brunches, and Lunches; A Taste of Home: Dinner Family Style; Alfresco Dining; Over There: An International Affair; Home for the Holidays and Other Celebrations.

The women, through whose eyes these stories are told and whose recipes are shared, are truly remarkable. They often balanced the responsibilities of maintaining home and hearth, raising a family, managing a business, and supporting a war effort. In addition, they found time to extend themselves in friendship and hospitality to one another and to women in the places where they were stationed, earning them a well-deserved reputation that continues to this day.

Author Biography: Carolyn Quick Tillery, is a wife, mother, attorney, researcher, and cookbook writer. Her lifelong love of cooking led her to write her first book, The African-American Heritage Cookbook, which contains history, recipes, and remembrances from her alma mater, Tuskegee Institute, now known as the Tuskegee University. She and her husband - a career Air Force officer - and daughter live at Vandenberg Air Force Base in the Los Angeles area. At Freedom's Table is her second book.

St. Petersburg Times

Even history buffs will find something to like about At Freedom's Tale, a collection of recipes and remembrances from military spouses as far back as Elizabeth Custer, wife of Gen. George.

Some of author Carolyn Quick Tillery's well-researched cookbook reads like a novel with recipes put in historical context and photographs of notable soldiers.
