Party Fun!

Author: New Holland

Now parents can find all the answers for preparing and holding memorable birthday parties for their kids! This guide takes you through every planning stage step-by-step, from making the invitations to choosing a theme and providing entertainment. The 20 inspiring party ideas include Plundering Pirates, Teddy’s Picnic, Skateboard Extreme, Funky Fashion Sleepover, Tenpin Bowling, Witches and Wizards, Boys’ Night Out, and Dolly’s Tea Party. Each celebration includes invitations, treat bags, food, party cake, and entertainment suggestions, and can be adapted to suit almost any age group. Many can be tailored to fit other special occasions, such as Valentine’s Day or Halloween gatherings. Illustrated throughout with full-color photographs, these creative festivities are so easy to arrange that children can be involved with many of the preparations.

Children's Literature

This is the ultimate themed party how-to book. It is sure to induce humility in all of us who are tempted to just take the birthday kids to Chuckie Cheese and be done with it. Every party plan in this handsome, oversized, paperback guide includes full color photos galore (150) to show you how to produce stunning parties—beginning with invitations, party decor, and treat bags. Directions then move along to four recipes for party food, four games or activities with directions, and a stunning cake. Party plans (twenty) include "Baby's First Birthday," "Plundering Pirates" (my favorite), "Hearty Party" (Valentine-y), "Teddy's Picnic," "Skateboard Extreme," "Funky Fashion Sleepover," "Tenpin Bowling," "Boys' Night Out," "Dolly's Tea Party," "Travel to Toyland," "Bling Bling Beads," "Wintry Wishes," "Chocolate Factory," "Mesmerizing Mermaids," "First Day at School," "Upside Down Back to Front" (this is a great idea-filled party—hot dogs on the outside of the buns), "Wrestling Fever," "Career Capers" (good for a graduate), and last but not least, "Ballet." An index of recipes, a set of templates for cakes and cookies, and a nice introduction round out this extravagantly illustrated book of archetypal parties. It is very British, with some mystifying ingredients like "Prestik" and "Edible glitter" and I am still puzzled where you get those black candy cannonballs for the pirate party and Marie biscuits that show up in about a third of the recipes. Jenny Dodd is also author of Party Ideas For Children. Since the Family Fun Parties: 100 Party Plans for Birthdays, Holidays, and Every Day by Deanna F. Cook seems to have gone out of print, the next best comparable title isSharron Krull's That Was the Best Party Ever! How to Give Birthday Parties Kids Will Never Forget () and Mike Artell and Pam Schiller's Parties Kids Love () which I always admired because it included children's book titles that tie to each archetypally themed party, and as we all will agree, books are the most important gift of all and the only ones you can open again and again.

At the South-East Asian Table (Images of Asia Series)

Author: Alice Yen Ho

Food as a daily meal or as a religious offering is fundamental to the cultures of South-East Asia. This new volume in the popular Images of Asia series explores the multifaceted aspects of food in South-East Asia. Beginning with a historical and sociological survey of South-East Asian food and eating habits, it goes on to discuss the ingredients and spices used in the region, the character of the food markets, the changing styles of the kitchens, and the different styles of cooking and eating that have evolved over the years. A final chapter examines common South-East Asian sayings based on the food and culinary habits of the region.

Edible Ideologies or Gardeners Table

Edible Ideologies: Representing Food and Meaning

Author: Kathleen LeBesco

Edible Ideologies argues that representations of food-in literature and popular fiction, cookbooks and travel guides, war propaganda, women's magazines, television and print advertisements-are not just about nourishment or pleasure. Contributors explore how these various modes of representation, reflecting prevailing attitudes and assumptions about food and food practices, function instead to circulate and transgress dominant cultural ideologies. Addressing questions concerning whose interests are served by a particular food practice or habit and what political ends are fulfilled by the historical changes that lead from one practice to another in Western culture, the essays offer a rich historical narrative that moves from the construction of the nineteenth-century English gentleman to the creation of two of today's iconic figures in food culture, Julia Child and Martha Stewart. Along the way, readers will encounter World War I propaganda, Holocaust and Sephardic cookbooks, the Rosenbergs, German tour guides, fast food advertising, food packaging, and chocolate, and will find food for thought on the meanings of everything from camembert to Velveeta, from salads to burgers, and from tikka masala to Campbell's soup.

Gardener's Table: A Guide to Natural Vegetable Growing and Cooking

Author: Richard Merrill

In an indispensable book that will be a godsend for any home gardener or fresh-food enthusiast, noted horticulturist Richard Merrill and award-winning cookbook author Joe Ortiz (of "Village Baker" fame) team up to deliver the ultimate, no-nonsense, down-to-earth, simple-to-use guidebook to cooking from a kitchen garden. 50 recipes.

Library Journal

The natural link between kitchen gardening and cooking is seamlessly conveyed by Merrill, who directs the horticultural department at Cabrillo College, and Ortiz, who wrote the award-winning The Village Baker: Classic Regional Breads from Europe and America. Assuming nothing, they start with basic instructions for designing a garden and outfitting a proper kitchen. Organic methods--for building the soil, starting and growing vegetables, and controlling pests--dominate the book, but the authors also include instructions for using fresh produce and recipes for condiments, stock, and vegetable dishes. Finally, a "Grow-It & Cook-It Compendium" conveniently lists vegetables by plant family, culinary uses, botanical name, detailed growing information, and harvesting and storage tips. This book isn't as extensive as Anna Pavord's classic, The New Kitchen Garden (DK, 1996), which includes fruit and herb information, but it's still a good general guide.
