“Ice cube trays are the new muffin tin.” —Delish.com Contemporary ice cube trays are arguably one of the most overlooked gems of the modern kitchen. If you have a refrigerator that produces its own ice, you may not even be aware of how far ice cube trays have come and how useful they can be in creating something other than ice. Trays are now available in many different styles, ranging from the traditional rectangular shape to the one-inch square to the cocktail-style two-inch sphere—and there are a variety of decorative shapes, as well. And the ones made from baking-grade silicone neither melt nor crack, making them a respectable vessel in the kitchen. Ice Cube Tray Recipes teaches you how to use these trays to create everything from infused ice cubes to one-bite appetizers and even mini main dishes that will impress family and friends of all ages and keep the mess at bay. In chapters that include everything from soups and smoothies to canapes and sweets, you’ll find recipes for every meal of the day. From the useful to the novel to the downright intriguing, each recipe offers a suggestion of the best ice cube tray to use but also allows for adaptations to traditional, regular-sized trays and novelty trays. This is the fun and inspirational book for home cooks who adore kitchen hacks and trendy entertaining and who like to experiment with new ideas.
Fashion designer Bridgett Artise believes in second chances—a philosophy that extends all the way to her clothing line, B. Artise Originals. Fashion gave her a second chance at happiness and success, and, in turn, she gives vintage garments that have lost their luster another chance at being fashionable. Mixing contemporary clothing with the best elements of a vintage piece—like the collar of a funky fifties housedress or the pockets of a seventies-style jacket—and piecing them back together in a whole new way, she creates one-of-a-kind garments that are both trend setting and timeless. An old-fashioned ruffled shirt with terrific buttons, plus an inexpensive tank top, can become a unique top. A poodle skirt and that so-last-year’s knee-length cardigan sweater can be turned into anything from a mini-poncho to a structured tube top. With fashions for every season, Born-Again Vintage contains patterns for: •Pants that pair perfectly with winter boots and a sweater dress that’s sexy and simple •A cropped jacket + sweater corset that are perfect for a flirty spring fling •Dresses + bags to keep summer easy and breezy •Pretty-in-a-blink dresses + accessories for a big night out Born-Again Vintage updates the trends of fashion eras gone by and brings the unparalleled quality of vintage into a new age. Complete with a vintage shopping guide, handy style tips, and ideas for reinventing disused cast-offs, Born-Again Vintage is a must-have for vintage shoppers and sewers alike.
The subject of this book is Herodes Atticus, the enormously rich Athenian of the second century AD, who became one of the politically important persons in his City and who was one of the leading intellectuals of his time in his capacity of sophist, orator, and teacher to students from all over the Roman Empire. Evidence of his munificence were scattered over Greece and Italy, in the shape of statues, buildings and shrines that he sponsored. They contributed to creating an image of a benevolent and generous benefactor." "This book focuses on one of the tools that he used for disseminating his image, namely poetry. The approach of this study is different from previous research in the sense that it is totally focused on verse inscriptions connected to Herodes Atticus and found in two different regions of the Roman Empire. Those inscriptions have been studied previously, but they have almost exclusively been used as sources for Herodes biography and treated as reflections of his person. In this study, the texts are also treated as illustrations of how occasional poetry functioned in the contemporary society and of how an individual like Herodes exploited the poetic medium in order to enhance his own person, his family and his endeavours." "By a careful study of the epigrams in question, the somewhat stereotype picture of Herodes becomes modified, and a complex figure appears. Without exaggeration, Herodes Atticus was one of the most interesting personalities in Athens of the Early Roman Empire."--BOOK JACKET.
