Confessions of a Scary Mommy
Based on the hugely popular Web site, ScaryMommy.com, this book takes an irreverent look at the unglamorous side of parenting and tackles the issues many mothers are too afraid to expose.
To Be
What does a middle-aged daughter, Adele, do when her aging, ill mother asks for help in dying, especially when daughter and mother have been edgy antagonists for years? Confronting a frightening death as her lungs fill, the mother, Elizabeth, insists on her right to choose when to die. Adele turns for help to her sister, who rejects euthanasia on religious grounds, and her brother, who tries to get pills, but is trapped in a snowstorm. Adele's daughter, Toni, becomes involved when she asks her grandmother's help with research into heroin smuggling perhaps carried on by people her grandparents knew.

The Flavors of Olive Oil
In THE FLAVOURS OF OLIVE OIL, Deborah Krasner guides readers step by step through the special taste and aroma characteristics of 75-100 different olive oils, classifying them into four distinct groups: delicate and buttery, fruity and fragrant, mild and peppery, and green and grassy, and providing sources for each. Each type of oil is best suited to a particular type of dish, and Krasner includes almost 100 recipes, ranging from appetisers to desserts. Delicate and buttery oils are subtle, and combine well with tender lettuces, fresh peas, mild cheeses. Krasner uses this kind of oil in her Fava Bean Soup and Buttermilk Lemon-Almond Cake with Strawberry Coulis. Fruity and fragrant oils have personality, and stand out drizzled over pasta, mixed salads and mildly flavoured meats like chicken breast. Mild and peppery oils can surprise you with a warm burn at the back of your throat. Use them for dipping bread and vegetables, or in dishes like Olive Oil Bathed Spring Vegetables. Green and grassy oils are the strongest of all, to be used in bruschetta or poured over a bean soup just before serving.
Listening
Damn, I feel naked, buddy, she told him, free hand massaging his powerful withers. He nickered in response. Good thing I stuck one of Jordans long shirts in my pack to cover my butt. I need a hard-core coffee to break up this morning. And those gourmet dinners arriving every day for a month from Docs wife? Now that is gonna ramp this naked caper right up into delicious. Listening tells of the mysterious power of deep listening to convert both listener and speaker via conversation, when thoughtfully done. There are interesting characters here: a Hopi wise man, a magnificent chestnut gelding named Skywalker, and a therapist who learns what little control she has over outcomes after all. Who knew chipmunks could double as toothy gurus and that tragedy could turn into healing wisdom? Doc, the vet who dared Jillian, the Boulder psychotherapist, to ride Skywalker into town dressed like a gypsy homaybe he knew.
