*** REVIEW & GIVEAWAY: The Champagne Taste/Beer Budget Cookbook *** (CLOSED)

I have always loved reading cooking books and looking at the attractive & delicious pictures in them since my childhood. Actually, I don't know many dishes to cook. The quantity of the food I can make is limited. But when I cook something, it becomes very delicious, and of course, I love eating :D
I asked you in one of my previous giveaways what kind of giveaways you would like to see, and some of you said "cooking books". So, the time has come! Today, I'd like to review The Champagne Taste/Beer Budget Cookbook by Woodrow Wilson.

Author: Wilson, Woodrow

Publisher: Booklocker.com
Subject: Methods - General
Subject: Courses & Dishes - General
Publication Date: August 2009
Binding: Paperback
Language: English
Pages: 108
Dimensions: 11.00x8.25x.22 in. .58 lbs.

You don't have to go to the expensive restaurants to feast. The book brings you very elegant restaurant quality food at a very low cost. Thanks to this enjoyable book, you can cook the "high-society" meals with a really reasonable budget. You can choose among various ingredients and dishes like beef, pork, poultry, seafood, pasta, soups, potatoes, corn, vegetables, etc. There are also secret ingredients and brunch dishes sections in the book.
What I noticed that at the beginning of every section, there is a good and informative background data about the related food. While reading, I saw that the author explained the cooking way of the food in different methods such as gas barbecue, charcoal barbecue, broiler, grill, etc. There are also quick helpful tips about the cooking.
By the way, the author doesn't forget to make you smile or even laugh! For example, when explaining the preparation of the beer-can chicken, he says "open the beer, drink half". There are such enjoyable sentences scattered inside the book.

PS: The only disadvantage of the book that it has no pictures in it, sorry :(

My Favorite Quotes:
- "You can always put it back and cook it more, but you can never put it back and uncook it."
- "Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?"

About the Author:
Woodrow Wilson is a Caltech PhD chemist who learned to cook in self-defense. He could live the life of a starving student as long as he didn’t have to taste it. Spoiled by years of his mother’s home cooking he’d have to do better. Besides, his roommates wouldn’t tolerate mediocre cooking. Dinner might not cost much, but it had better not taste like it didn’t.
Wilson brings his creativity out of the laboratory and into the kitchen. Toying with recipes—adjusting ingredients to improve taste or substituting ingredients for whatever he’s out of—he presents new takes on old favorites. Cooking by the seat of his pants, and then reverse engineering the ones that turn out well, he produces some great new taste sensations. His best results are presented in his new book The Champagne Taste/Beer Budget Cookbook. This is a collection of recipes simple enough they are a joy to cook, but delicious enough they are a joy to eat.

Wilson is a research scientist, an author, a Toastmaster, a husband, a father, and a grandfather. Visit his web site http://www.woodrow-wilson.com to learn more about him. As a special bonus, you’ll discover new recipes there every month or so.

*** REVIEW & GIVEAWAY: CHARM FACTORY *** (CLOSED)

I don't know how many times I told this to you, but I'm really fond of beautiful jewelry. I'm attracted, what can I do? :D I've had my eyes on the products of this company for a long time :) They have so many options, you can get lost among the endless varieties! I had a chance to review a bracelet of my choice from Charm Factory. The bracelet I chose is the Silver Star Bracelet. I love those stars!

Astrology buffs, star gazers and the superstar in your life will be crazy for this distinctively different and truly beautiful sterling silver Star Charm Bracelet. Elicit squeals of joyful delight when you present them with this wonderful bracelet filled with stars. The foundational bracelet, made from .925 sterling silver, combines a lovely figure 8 link design with a durable lobster style clasp.

I like the way it's packaged. It arrived in a free white gift box, in which the bracelet is clasped securely from both sides (so that it doesn't fall), but this doesn't mean that it's hard to take it from there; I easily got it out of its package kindly. I saw that you can adjust the bracelet in accordance with the width of your wrist. So, whether you are really underweight or overweight, you can wear it in any condition. The bracelet doesn't tire your wrist, it isn't heavy. But I must admit that wearing this kind of bracelet can sometimes be a little difficult without a help (in order to clasp it), however once you get used to it, it becomes a piece of cake :) I think this bracelet will be a part of my daily wear.

PS: They feature almost 5000 high quality, unique sterling silver charms, bracelets, beads and more.

My Favorite Three from the Shop:
- Italian Good Luck Hand Sign Charm = $4.07
- Black Crystal Music Note Charm = $18.37
- Pewter Black Crystal Star Charm = $12.10

From the Sponsor:
The Charm Factory produces sterling silver charms and charm bracelets in the United States, located in Albuquerque, New Mexico since 2001.

*** GIVEAWAY FROM AURA IMBARUS *** (CLOSED)

Aura Imbarus, an educator, professional speaker, and the author of the critically acclaimed memoir, Out of the Transylvania Night: A Story of Tyranny, Freedom, Love and Identity, and a book for teens, 101 Great Ways to Make the World a Totally Awesome Place - By Teens For Teens, kindly accepted to offer a great prize for my dear readers! You can check her website here.

The memoir made the cuts in the Pulitzer Prize race.
Out of the Transylvania Night has many layers, starting with cultural, social, mystical, and economical and, of course, last but not least, it is a love story. It represents the pursue of happiness and the achievement of the American Dream, the ups and downs of a fast-paced life in the city that never sleeps - Los Angeles. It deploys the coming together and the falling apart scenes of a family of immigrants who lost the vision, love, and care in the process of blending in and keeping up with the Joneses. A story of a Transylvanian Cinderella, it is also a portrayal of life's dreams and resolutions in the New World, premonitions and déjà-vu, Transylvania’s existence and categorical life imperatives. As love furtively sneaks out when you least expect it, it also creeps in at the right time on the wings of hope. The memoir summarizes human’s desires in an ever-changing world, more demanding and strenuously competitive, where money and material possessions would, for a while, dominate Aura’s existence, only to dissipate as dreams vanish at the crack of dawn, into a more rooted and logically supported existence plagued by ethics, intelligence, charisma and sensibility.

BUY IT: You can buy this book for just $10.17 at Amazon! Also for $11.83 at Barnes&Noble and for $11.96 at HCI Books.

WIN IT: Two (2) winners will receive a copy of Out of the Transylvania Night. (Value: $20.00 USD)

- MANDATORY ENTRY -

A Crazy Day :)

Oh, yesterday was a crazy day! We had a photo shooting for our band's promo and we went to a forest-like place. It was a huge place and the shooting took 6 hours without any break! Our photographer took about 2000 photos of us one by one and together with the band. We walked all around the forest to have a good scene for the photos and I'm really very tired now. And guess what happened? During the shooting, I almost fell in the deep lake-like water! My right leg was soaked completely, my boot was ruined, I sprained my ankle, hit my knee and wrist:( Now, I have aches everywhere of my body. Actually, if my bassist hadn't held me, I would have fallen in the water completely. He saved my life :D
But all in all, everything was great, we enjoyed very much and the photos are very good as I see. When I receive all, I'm planning to share some of them with you.

*** GIVEAWAY FROM DOWN-TO-EARTH DOCTOR *** (CLOSED)

Today's giveaway is coming from Dr. Tom Potisk, AKA the "Down-to-Earth" Doctor. Get a healthy start to the New Year with the new book Whole Health Healing - The Budget Friendly Natural Wellness Bible for All Ages ($24.95). Learn how to enjoy eating without weight gain, exercises that really work and those to avoid, and even how to raise healthier children naturally. This 364 page holistic self-help book is written by Dr Tom Potisk, a world renowned holistic family doctor. Besides setting the record straight on what real health is, he includes specific natural tips for over 40 ailments including fibromyalgia, arthritis, psoriasis, and even bedwetting with his easy-going conversational writing style. That's why he's known globally as the "Down-to-Earth" doctor and you can find the book on his web site (http://www.thedowntoearthdoctor.com).

From The Product Owner:

The down-to-earth doctor puts healthy holistic lifestyles within readers' reach in time for New Years.

Caledonia, WI, November 8, 2010 - At some point in their lives, most Americans face the high-cost, high-risk traditional medical system. Soon afterward they are fed up with it. But now Dr. Tom Potisk's book, Whole Health Healing: The Budget Friendly Natural Wellness Bible for All Ages (Maven Mark Books), offers a healthy holistic alternative to common ailments and corporate healthcare options from a refreshing new perspective.

This book is changing American healthcare culture by retrieving control from greedy and abusive corporations and politicians and restoring it to the people. Dr. Potisk helps readers end over-reliance on traditional medical care. Specific solutions are provided for over 40 common ailments including fibromyalgia, colic, headaches, infections, and bedwetting. Readers can apply Dr. Potisk's nutrition and health expertise to their lives and immediately reap the rewards.

Internationally renowned and loved, Dr. Potisk has earned the nickname the “Down-to-Earth Doctor” because of his easy-going conversational style of teaching do-it-yourself natural health techniques. In a conversational style Dr. Potisk supplies readers of Whole Health Healing with practical, realistic advice about saving money on health care, the truth about 'real' health, the five most dangerous exercises, ways to enjoy eating without gaining weight, and how to raise healthier children. True dramatic patient anecdotes that run the emotional gamut from humorous to tragic empower and motivate readers to obtain optimum health. The author includes observations of healthier cultures from his many travels to remote and exotic locales; he even reveals the secrets of his own family’s extraordinary wellness.

This unique book provides easy to follow, budget friendly, safe, and effective natural options for dozens of common maladies. One example of these practical and inexpensive holistic health tips is for readers with knee injuries. The book includes an illustrated description of a remarkably effective, simple, and safe self-applied knee-stretching maneuver that requires only a bath towel to be effective. Another example of the economical, holistic health improvement lessons supplies readers suffering from cholesterol problems with a natural regimen that has worked wonders for many of his patients. Seniors and parents receive special attention in the book: there’s a special chapter for advanced-age health and another for raising healthier children.

Either celebrities or "medical defectors" with minimal, if any, training and experience with holistic, natural healthcare have written many of the books on holistic health, but Whole Health Healing relies on a quarter century of training and experience of one of America’s leading natural healthcare practitioners. Dr. Potisk is a real holistic doctor who has helped thousands of patients in one of the largest holistic health clinics, which he founded in 1985. He graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic and trained for hundreds of hours and is certified in nutritional counseling and wellness, and was elected Chiropractor of the Year, extensively publishes and lectures in his community. Dr. Potisk lives holistically on a farm in Wisconsin with his wife and 3 children. His goal is to improve lives by empowering people to make wiser healthcare decisions.

Readers can purchase Whole Health Healing and learn other interesting information about this unique and innovative speaker, healthcare specialist, and author at Dr. Potisk's website: www.thedowntoearthdoctor.com.

TIP SHEET:
Brian Lampe, chair CEO Ministries: “I rarely buy books about health after being let down by several that I found to be over-hyped and written by either celebrities or medical “defectors” with little holistic health training. But upon a recommendation of a friend, I bought Dr Potisk’s book and was blown away at his ability to write in a conversational style I can understand and with information I can put to use right now. I’ve already lost 35 pounds by just following a few of his simple suggestions. It’s easy to recognize his training and experience with the subject, and I love all the little stories he uses from his experiences in his practice, his own family, and his travels to remote places. I’m now getting my wife and child on this new healthy path Dr Potisk makes so easy to follow.”

Dr. Jerry Zelm, author of What Your Doctor Never Told You: “This book contains cutting edge, useful information for everybody. This is the answer to the health care crisis in the US. Thanks to Dr. Tom’s help, I’m enjoying an active, healthy life at age 63.”

Suzy Cohen, RPh, author of The 24-Hour Pharmacist and Drug Muggers: “Whole Health Healing is a well-researched and surprisingly entertaining book. Dr. Potisk is clearly '’outraged' at the current American 'sickness-care' system, and it has lit a fire within him to inspire others to get well naturally. If more doctors were like him, we’d all be healthier for it.”

Kira Henschel, MavenMark Books: "Tom Potisk is one of the most caring, sincere proponents of natural healthcare I know. He is a skilled chiropractor, an eloquent and dynamic speaker…and all in all, a wonderful person to know and work with. …'Whole Health Healing' [is] a great resource for people of all ages, with straightforward advice, wry humor, and excellent holistic information."
