By cutting the cords of attachment, we discover the indestructible happiness that has always been--and always will be--available to us.

Book Synopsis Chocolate Runs Through My Veins by : Connie Spenuzza
Download or read book Chocolate Runs Through My Veins written by Connie Spenuzza and published by . This book was released on 2022-02-14 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this magnificently researched and illustrated book, international award-winning author Connie Spenuzza masterfully explores the cultural history of the women within the world of chocolate. As a child, Spenuzza frolicked in her family's pristine equatorial rainforest cacao plantations, not yet knowing the intricacies of culture and history that surrounded women's roles in an industry as luscious as chocolate. But these early years piqued her curiosity and spurred decades of extensive travel that would take Spenuzza to places such as the archaeological sites of Mesoamerica, where chocolate reached its apex as a ritual beverage. Armed with a novelist's eye for human frailties and an investigator's nose for hidden truths, Spenuzza exquisitely guides you on the illuminating journey across the globe to uncover the 5,300-year-old history of the women who dedicated their lives to the world's most coveted indulgence. The allure of chocolate started 5,300 years in the Amazon River Basin of Ecuador with the drink of the gods, Theobroma cacao. During the Spanish colonial period of the Americas, the commerce of cacao was a guarded goldmine, as it sailed back to Europe on the trade winds known as the vientos chocolateros. Convent nuns of the Americas and Europe prepared a chocolate drink, and through their ingenuity, they created the first chocolate confections that stimulated the senses. Even the royal houses of Europe fell under the spell of chocolate when arrogant Spanish royal brides insisted on having the sinful delicacy within their courts. The sheer pleasure of a sip or even one bite intoxicated men to the point that they believed chocolate was some type of sorcery, a power that women possessed over them. This European chocolate mania led to a nefarious period for the confection. Due to an increased demand for its production in the Caribbean, the enslaved were forced to work in heinous conditions on the European-owned plantations. Soon piracy, contraband, theft, pyres of the Spanish Inquisition, and the draconian English laws punished female chocolatiers severely. This book [CD1] takes you on a stunning, surprising, and moving tour of historic turning points in chocolate's history, introducing you to the many women who toiled for this luxurious confection, such as chocolate entrepreneurs Mary Tuke, the tenacious British Quaker, and Luisa Spagnoli, the passionate Italian chocolatier. Follow Spenuzza as she deftly guides you through this poignant bite of history and walks in the powerful steps of those women who sacrificed so much for the love of chocolate.

The books ends with three wonderfully rich and evocative guided meditations that help us vividly see that the more we give away the more happiness we find always in this moment right here. Anyone looking for advice on how to be happy-truly, meaningfully happy-will find Lama Zopa Rinpoche to be a trustworthy and skilful guide. He is a tireless teacher of methods that work for us when all is well and also when life's troubles, big and small, seem unmanageable.

He has an unending commitment to help any and all of us to transform every moment and every challenge of our lives into an opportunity for realizing the happiness that we are meant to have. You won't need an understanding of Buddhism to read and learn from How to be Happy. All you'll need is a mind that seeks joy, and in turn wishes to share it with the people around you.

Book excerpt: **THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER** 'I don't think I've ever read a book that has made me cry with laughter as much as this one. It was very difficult reading it in public as I looked like a madman' - Richard Herring James Acaster has been nominated for the Edinburgh Comedy Award five times and has appeared on prime-time TV shows like TASKMASTER,MOCK THE WEEK, LIVE AT THE APOLLO and WOULD I LIE TO YOU? But behind the fame and critical acclaim is a man perpetually getting into trouble. Whether it's disappointing a skydiving instructor mid-flight, hiding from thugs in a bush wearing a bright red dress, or annoying the Kettering Board Games club, a didgeridoo-playing conspiracy theorist and some bemused Christians, James is always finding new ways to embarrass himself.
