My Review of "Sunday Suppers"

Karen Mordechai's Sunday Suppers: Recipes + Gatherings is a beautiful book that celebrates the magic of gathering, bringing together family and friends to connect over the art of cooking and sharing meals. Sunday Suppers is full of easy, creative recipes along with beautiful photographs. This collection of gatherings is guaranteed to inspire a sense of adventure for both the novice and experienced cook.

All of the recipes bring together in one useable hardback a collection that would enrich larger family and extended community gatherings. It's particularly a good book for our kitchen, since my husband is a pastor and we will often find ourselves in a position to entertain.

Sunday Suppers is divided into recipes for Morning, Noon, Afternoon and Evening with 18 subtopics.

I recommend this book particular for those experienced cooks.

I received this book free, from the Blogging for Books program, in exchange for my honest review.

My Review of "The Tea Planter's Wife"

Dinah Jefferies' The Tea Planter's Wife is a fun novel that vividly depicts the 1920s. Gwendolyn Hooper, her 19-year-old heroine, speaks for an empire-branded breed of gutsy young British women who left the security of England to embark on extraordinary adventures abroad. Not the back-packing, "lonely planet" travels of today, gap-year kids constantly connected with the folks back home via internet and smartphones, and usually safely and predictably back home for good inside a year. Girls like Gwen married men who made their living and fortunes out in the colonies -- or what until very recently had been colonies -- and went out to join them, standing shoulder-to shoulder with their husbands to face down hardship, danger, disease, monsoon, drought, and not least the simmering and sometimes murderous resentment of locals. That makes The Tea Planter's Wife so much more than a love story -- it's a recognition that girls like Gwen had guts, and c...

My Review of "The Happiness of Pursuit"

All of life is filled with journeys, with adventures. No one knows this better than Chris Guillebeau, whose own life adventure has included visiting every country in the world. And in The Happiness of Pursuit: Finding the Quest that Will Bring Purpose to Your Life , Guillebeau writes about what that journey in our lives can be like. In so many ways, he's a modern-day Don Quixote and he's teaching us to dream our own impossible dreams. And then turning those dreams into real life. This book is all about picking, planning and achieving your own individual life's journey. And because our lives are all so different, Guillebeau packs The Happiness of Pursuit with lots and lots of examples. He draws from so many categories -- like academic or creative, self-discovery or activist -- and provides very practical advice for how we can get there on our own journey. The book itself has the most inviting writing. It's easy to read. I ...

My Review of "Deal of Duel"

Deal or Duel is a must-have for all those Hamilton lovers out there! While I ordered it because of the musical, when my husband and I played after dinner one night, I was hooked for the history. It's beautifully designed and filled with all the trivia you didn't get in your high school American history class. Players pit their survival skills against one another, trying to do the one thing that really is American -- try to win all the money ... or die trying. We love it and plan to share with all our friends and family. I received a free copy of this game from the Blogging for Books review program in exchange for my honest review here.
