French from the Market

By: Hillary Davis

This newest cookbook from Hillary Davis focuses on the best of traditional French cooking—provincial cuisine based on produce and foods fresh from the market, simply prepared, and delicious for everyday dining at home. Hillary Davis shows us in French from the Market that French food isn’t always haute cuisine. Traditional, daily French cooking is provincial and farm-driven. It is also an art, that uses the freshest and finest ingredients available from gardens, markets, and local vendors to put nourishing meals on the table. And, as Davis point out, French home cooking is not hard. The 100 plus recipes for starters, soups, salads, fish, poultry, meats, vegetables, and desserts in this cookbook, along with detailed instructions and tips, prove her right. Embrace at-home cooking, French style, with these market-fresh recipes: Arugula Salad over Watermelon with Herbed Goat Cheese; Weeknight Halibut in Basil Cream with Cherry Tomatoes; Autumn Harvest Chicken with Grapes, Apples, and Figs; Broiled Lamb Chops with Warm Potato and Herb Salad; Fluffy Cauliflower and Cheese Quiche; and Fruity, Frosty Cantaloupe Sorbet.

Together at the Table

A Novel of Lost Love and Second Helpings

By: Hillary Manton Lodge

In this follow up to A Table By the Window, Juliette D'Alisa continues searching for the full story about her grandmother's past and for her own chance at lasting love. Juliette feels on top of the world when her and her brother, Nico's restaurant opens to rave reviews. But that feeling is short-lasted, when in a bittersweet series of events, her mother falls ill and her romance with Memphis immunologist Neil McLaren ubruptly ends in anger and tears. Three long months later, as autumn sweeps into the Pacific Northwest, Juliette feels that she’s finally on the cusp of equilibrium--the restaurant continues to thrive, and her family is closer than ever. She and sous-chef Adrien are seeing each other, both in and out of the kitchen. Just when she thinks her world might stop spinning, a trip to the waterfront brings a chance encounter with a familiar face from her past. Rather than dwell on her personal life, Juliette throws herself into work and research. After reading her grandmother’s letters from war-torn Paris, she still wants to know the full story-- and she’ll travel across countries and oceans to find it. But even Juliette can’t outrun the man who stole her heart. As she finally uncovers the truth about her family history, what will it mean for her own search for love?

By: Hillary Manton Lodge

A culinary concoction of taking chances and finding love in the most delectable places Food writer-turned-restaurateur Juliette D’Alisa has more than enough on her plate. While her trip to Provence might have unlocked new answers to her grandmother’s past, it’s also provided new complications in the form of Neil McLaren, the man she can’t give up.

As she confronts an uncertain future, Juliette can’t help but wish that life could be as straightforward as her chocolate chip cookie recipe. Can her French grandmother’s letters from the 1940’s provide wisdom to guide her present? Or will every new insight create a fresh batch of mysteries?

High Adventure

By: Edmund Hillary

Book Description: Everest forbidding, exhilarating, unconquerable. All courageous attempts by man to reach its summit by heading up the northern side from Tibet had failed. The southern approach through Nepal had never before been climbed, due to its impossibly steep ice-covered slopes and the country's policies. But in 1951 Edmund Hillary joined an expedition to find a new route up Everest from the south, which led to a new chapter in mountaineering history. The climbers' determination, endurance and battle against the elements culminated with their famous climb in 1953 as they finally reached the summit of this formidable mountain. This is Hillary's own account of the treacherous and breathtaking journeys.
