Winter Must Reads 2018

Don’t know what to read this winter? There’s nothing quite like warming up to a good book by the fireplace. Here are my picks for this winter.

The Wicked Healthy Cookbook 

The Wicked Healthy Cookbook

The Wicked Healthy Cookbook 

Chefs Chad and Derek Sarno are among the world’s foremost authorities on plant-based cooking and, with prolific author & collaborator, David Joachim, are now sharing their secrets to making killer meals in THE WICKED HEALTHY COOKBOOK: Free. From. Animals., with a foreword by Woody Harrelson.

THE WICKED HEALTHY COOKBOOK celebrates the central role beautiful, craveable food plays in our health and vitality. More than 125 plant-based recipes for everyday cooking and fancy dinner parties alike will make the most die-hard meat-eaters happy. Chad, Derek, and David are plant-pushers, not meat-shamers! They show us how to kick back and indulge now and then, too, all while keeping it plant-based. That’s part of the plan: Shoot for 80% healthy and 20% wicked, and you’ll be 100% sexy—it’s the Wicked Healthy way.

Everybody knows they should eat more plants, but most think that plants can’t be delicious or that they don’t have the kitchen smarts to make these foods taste their best. Having spent decades practicing and perfecting their craft, Chad, Derek, and David are here to share their “plant-based 2.0” approach, including drool-inducing, no-holds-barred recipes.

Cocktails, sauces & basics are also covered. Featured throughout are informative sidebars and innovative cooking techniques such as pressing and searing mushrooms until they reach a rich and delicious meat-like consistency. The authors also include must-have tips on everything from cooking oil-free and eating healthy on the run to organizing an efficient kitchen and balancing flavors and textures. Specific diets from gluten-free and no-added-sugar to soy-, oil-, and nut-free are also accommodated.

Made for Walking: A Modest History of the Fashion Boot  

Made for Walking: A Modest History of the Fashion Boot  

Made for Walking: A Modest History of the Fashion Boot

Social meets fashion history in the tantalizing story of the boot from the Roaring Twenties and Prohibition to online shopping and fashion blogs. Weaving together such unlikely elements as Glam Rock, the martyrdom of Joan of Arc, and the Iran-Contra scandal, it shows how the modern fashion boot plays with our ideas of gender, straddling the line between practical and stylish, between fashion and fetish. Peake, the author of the popular Made for Walking blog, includes thought-provoking photos and graphs that look deeply into what boots do, and what we make them do. In the words of renowned designer Beth Levine, “Boots moved into prominence the same time The Pill did. Both were symbols of a woman’s new freedom and emancipation.” Whether you’re a student of fashion history, a collector of vintage clothes, or someone who feels “five hundred times more dashing” wearing boots, this book is for you.
