Book excerpt: A funny, candid, and original coming-of-age story told through sugar addiction She doesn’t drink or do drugs, but like millions of other Americans, Lisa Kotin has a substance abuse problem. Kotin is addicted to sugar. My Confection is a darkly funny and candid memoir of where sugar took this teenage mime when she left her San Francisco Bay Area home in pursuit of artistic greatness. From the strict macrobiotic house where she is kicked out for smuggling Snickers, to her early days of Overeaters Anonymous meetings where she is bewildered by the idea of submitting to a higher power, to the stylish shrink who suggests she figure out how many minutes of tennis equal the calories in one jelly donut, to the men she unwraps and consumes like cheap chocolate bars, Kotin careens from romantic disasters to caloric catastrophes. Original and surprisingly affecting, this portrait of a sugar addict has nothing to do with losing weight or getting fit but rather with coming out of the (sugar) closet, finding allies who understand, and learning how to live healthfully, in spite of her compulsion.

But there was always one thing that kept her going: protecting her younger sisters and ensuring their lives are happy. Escaping her abusive marriage, Cady is shunted off to the small town of Garrison, Montana, to live with a paternal grandmother she doesn't know, and doesn't want to. It seems that her two younger sisters, and an equally determined grandmother, are hell bent on looking after her. But can they get her to live again?

Book excerpt: For Lisa Knopp, homesickness is a literal sickness. During a lengthy sojourn away from the Nebraska prairie, she fell ill, and only when she decided to return home didøshe recover. Homesickness is the triggering event for this collection of essays concerned with nothing less than what it means to feel at home. Knopp writes masterfully about ecology, place, and the values and beliefs that sustain the individual within an impersonal world. She is passionate about her subject whether it be an endangered beetle in the salt marshes near Lincoln, Nebraska, a forgotten Nebraska inventor, a museum muralist, a paleontologist, or Arbor Day as the misguided attempt of Eastern settlers to ?correct? a perceived deficiency in the Great Plains landscape. Here is a writer who has read widely and judiciously and for whom everything resonates within the intricately structured definition of home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With TRUFFLES, CANDIES, AND CONFECTIONS at your side, starting a candymaking tradition will be as rewarding as it is delectable. Imagine your favorite candy—maybe it's a velvety raspberry truffle or a piece of crisp English toffee. In this completely revised and expanded edition of a culinary classic, pastry chef and teacher Carole Bloom shows intrepid bakers how to turn their visions of sugarplums into home-baked perfection. Bloom begins with an illuminating discussion of candymaking essentials, from ingredients to tools to techniques, and then shares more than 180 exquisitely detailed recipes for truffles, caramels, nut brittles, fudge, and more. If you haven't dared to try candymaking or have been frustrated by attempts in the past, get out the baking sheets and gift boxes—it's time to prepare, devour, and share batches of blissful, homemade treats like Mocha Truffles, Hazelnut Chocolate Kisses, Vanilla Cream Caramels, Butter Peanut Brittle, and Maple Pecan Fudge. Bloom's clear, concise instructions will help beginners master even the trickiest techniques, like tempering chocolate and making caramel, and her many recipe variations will inspire experienced candymakers to experiment with new flavor combinations.

Book excerpt: Chocolate is the only way to this confectioner’s heart—until a gorgeous hockey player becomes her man candy … Fresh from studying chocolate making in Europe, Kenley Hunter is ready to build her own business, Confection Consultations. Sinful truffles and exotic chocolates are her only passion—as the idea of romance is about as appealing as a piece of stale candy. A natural beauty, Kenley has been judged more often for her appearance than anything she’s accomplished, but people respect her knowledge and wizardry with chocolate—focusing on the delights she serves rather than what she looks like. Throwing herself into her career allows her to avoid romance—as her biggest fear is that once a man gets past her beauty, he will be disappointed in what he will find. When sexy hockey player Nate Johansson defends Kenley’s desire to be herself in a photoshoot—by ripping off his jersey and volunteering to be the eye candy a magazine is trying to force her to be—her plans to avoid romance begin to fall like a bad soufflé. Will Kenley be brave enough to take a chance on romance with Nate? Or will fears of the past freeze this game of love before the puck is dropped? If you enjoy laugh out loud humor, swoony heroes, and delicious romance, you’ll love The Definition of Icing.
