Faced with a spread of suspects, Hayley is determined to discover who would want to take out the Christmas caterer, because-no matter what the season-justice must be served.

Hayley Powell, food and cocktails columnist for Bar Harbor's Island Times, is. well, kind of broke. So when she's selected for that extreme coupon-clipping reality game show coming to town. she's thrilled, especially when her competition is nasty nurse Candace Culpepper. But when Haley stumbles across a face-down-in-the-snow Candace-scissors gleaming between her shoulders-she knows the next thing she'll be selected for will probably be a police line-up. Meanwhile, though Hayley's BFF Mona was only joking about "taking Candace out," Bruce Linney, the Island Times crime reporter, definitely isn't laughing. And what about the smarmy, cold-hearted host of the show, Drew Nickerson, who may have been having a steamy affair with the intentionally-iced nurse? Hayley needs to cut to the chase and find the killer. Everything may hinge on a stray coupon, but Hayley better keep her eyes on the real grand prize: staying out of permanent cold storage! Includes seven delectable recipes from Hayley's kitchen! Praise for Death of a Kitchen Diva"Delicious and satisfying. Another course, please." -Carolyn Hart"Readers will be calling for a second round from author Lee Hollis." -Leslie Meier, author of Chocolate Covered Murder

Considered high-priced delicacies or waste material to be tossed away, the use and value of offal-edible and inedible animal by-products-depend entirely on the culture and country in question. The skin, blood, bones, meat trimmings, fatty tissues, horns, hoofs, feet, skull, and entrails of butchered animals comprise a wide variety of products including human or pet food or processed materials in animal feed, fertilizer, or fuel. Regardless of the final product's destination, it is still necessary to employ the most up-to-date and effective tools to analyze these products for nutritional and sensory quality as well as safety. Providing a full overview of the analytical tools currently available, the Handbook of Analysis of Edible Animal By-Products examines the role and use of the main techniques and methodologies used worldwide for the analysis of animal by-products. Divided into four parts, this unique handbook covers the chemistry and biochemistry involved in the fundamentals of the field and considers the technological quality, nutritional quality, and safety required to produce a viable product. Beginning with an introduction to the chemical and biochemical compounds of animal by-products, the book details the use and detection of food-grade proteins, rendered fats, and cholesterol. It discusses how to determine oxidation in edible by-products, measurement of color in these products, and the analysis of nutritional aspects such as essential amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. The latter portion of the book deals with safety parameters, particularly the analytical tools for the detection of pathogens, toxins, and chemical toxic compounds usually found in muscle foods. Specific chapters highlight the detection of tissues typically found in animal by-products, such as neuronal tissues, non-muscle tissues, and bone fragments.

Humankind has had a long and intimate association with gourds, and one of them, the bottle gourd, or calabash, may have been man's first cultivated plant. Although grown in the United States today primarily as ornamentals, in other parts of the world gourds have many other important uses. With charming text and stunning black-and-white photographs, The Gourd Book provides fascinating scientific information and folklore about these remarkable plants and keys for identifying species. The first part of the book deals with tree gourds, widely used as containers and for decoration; the Cucurbita gourds, including the buffalo gourd, the Turk's turban, the silver-seed gourd, and the Malabar gourd, all utilized as food, and the beautiful ornamental gourds; the loofah gourds, popular as cosmetic sponges; minor gourds, such as the snake, wax, bitter, teasel, and hedgehog gourds, sometimes used as food or medicine; and gourds mentioned in the Bible. The second part takes up the bottle gourd, which have been used for thousands of years. Even today this gourd is almost indispensable in many parts of the tropics, where species are used to make containers, musical instruments, and clothing, as food and medicine, and in art. The book concludes with a discussion of the gourd in folklore and myth and an appendix on growing, hybridizing, and preserving gourds for decoration. Delightfully written for general readers, this book will also appeal to botanists, anthropologists, horticulturists, and everyone interested in plants or gardening.

This book represents years and years of individual and collaborative efforts by its authors to both develop techniques that bring life to dining as well as to share the authors' and their respective family members' love of food. It reflects a great deal of experimentation and refinement. Most importantly, the recipes in the book are only a starting point and users are encouraged to add their own twists (and turns) to its contents. Bon appetit!

ABOUT THE BOOK So, you're on a diet. That's a great start, but you know how it goes, right? First come the exciting cookbooks and articles, then the planning and dreaming about diet goals (slimming down, bulking up, making just the right amount of muscle show - all the cliches). Then comes the diet itself, and suddenly those plans slam into a wall made out of hunger, boredom, late nights, and lost willpower. There's a reason people bounce around from diet to diet so often. Those delicious foods you've been accustomed to eating - from the bag of chips to the extra chicken nugget - are programmed into your body. When you stop following the old program, your digestive system and brain rally to complain, and suddenly you're tempted to return to the old balance by adding fats, sweets, salty snacks, and all those other tasty bites you're not supposed to eat. In other words, junk food happens. Here's the good news: not all junk food is manufactured to be equal. Even if you break your diet, you can break in the right way, and still eat fewer calories than before. Fewer calories equals weight lost, and you still win the diet game. The even better news? There are both psychological and scientific reasons why junk food can - maybe even should - be an important part of any basic diet. The key is proper planning, while making sure your junk food passes the right health tests. So when that old hungry feeling hits again, don't try to force it away. Set aside part of your diet to deal with it, because many junk foods will not really ruin your diet. Some snacks even have hidden health benefits, if you know what to look for. Adding a few hundred calories here and there may be one of the best food decisions you have every made. You'll be amazed what you can eat to satisfy your off-diet cravings while still losing those pounds! MEET THE AUTHOR Tyler Lacoma writes on business, environmental, and fitness topics, but squeezes in some time for fiction, too. He graduated from George Fox Uni

East meets West to create a unique cuisine of mixed European and Indian parentage, the Anglo-Indians adopted the religion, manners and clothing of their European forefathers. Yet, over the years, those of them who made India their home successfully integrated into the mainstream of Indian society. And some of the most glorious results of this assimilation took shape in the kitchen, the territory of the memsahib and her trusted khansamah. Anglo-Indian cuisine is a delicious blend of East and West, rich with the liberal use of coconut, yogurt and almonds, and flavoured with an assortment of spices. Roasts And Curries, Pulaos And Breads, Cakes And Sweetmeats, All Have A Distinctive Flavour. The Western Bias For Meats And Eggs Is Offset By The Indian Fondness For Rice, Vegetables, Curds, Papads, Pickles And Chutneys. And There Is A Great Deal Of Innovation And Variety In Soups, Entrees, Side Dishes, Sauces, Salads And Desserts.

For some people, detoxifying is an alarming word. The root word 'toxin' which is often taken as an exact synonym for poison, is most probably be the culprit. Poison typically connotes death, such as when an extremely depressed individual drinks poison to end his or her misery. A toxin is by all means something to be scared of, but not detoxification. As defined in Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, a toxin is "a poisonous substance that is a specific product of the metabolic activities of a living organism …" (Mish, 2004, p. 1323). The fact that people are living organisms which undergo metabolism suggests that people themselves produce the toxic substances inside their bodies, which eventually cause harm in terms of sickness and other negative health conditions. Meanwhile, detoxification is a major "bodily process designed to deal with health threatening toxic condition posed by our environment, our diets, and even our bodies themselves" (Slaga & Keuneke, 2003, p. 6). In a simpler manner, Lieberman and Gormley (2005) describes detoxification refers to the elimination of harmful substances from the human body. Hence, detoxification should always be viewed as a positive process. An individual who has ingested poison either accidentally or intentionally is also subjected to detoxification in a different sense - in terms of clinical management. Such is a medical emergency and the detoxification is carried out by the use of medication and medical procedures. The detoxification which is the subject matter of this report is made possible by making improvements in one's diet. Do we all need to detoxify?

A groundbreaking approach to picky eating, by the originators of the technique: Initially developed by co-author Cheri Fraker, in the course of raising an 11 year old who ate nothing but peanut butter and breads and drank milk, the food-chaining technique was subsequently developed into a comprehensive, non-threatening treatment approach that can be used by parents, no matter what the nature of their child's picky-eating. A comprehensive guide to the approach-which also includes a preventive component, for keeping children from developing into picky eaters: Food chaining emphasizes the relationship between food items in regard to taste, temperature and texture. Targeted food items are selected that are very similar to foods the child currently accepts without difficulty and adds variety to the diet gradually expanding out to all food groups. Also covered is the concept of pre-chaining, which works to prevent food aversions before they can develop. Food-chaining is already being recognized as a media-worthy development: In 2005 articles focusing on the technique appeared in the Wall Street Journal, Chicago Tribune and Self magazine-as journalists recognized this as a breakthrough approach for dealing with picky eating in children (as well as adults).
