Does this taste funny? : recipes our family loves / by Colbert, Stephen,1964-author.(CARDINAL)346048; Colbert, Evelyn McGee,author.; Wolfinger, Eric,photographer.(CARDINAL)602241;
Introduction -- Party food -- Soups -- Poultry -- Meat -- Seafood -- Vegetables, sides, and one other thing -- Desserts -- Breakfast -- Drinks -- Thank-yous."As Evie and Stephen explain it, Does This Taste Funny? had its beginnings in the Covid lockdown. "We were all stuck together and couldn't go out, so we cooked. We had all three kids back under one roof for the first time in a long time, and we had dinner each night as a family. Cooking together became a major source of entertainment." Now, the Colberts invite us into their kitchen and around their dining room table. Sharing Stephen and Evie's favorite recipes, as well as those of their family and friends, this book offers everything from Party Food (called "party food" because "appetizers" implies something to follow when we all know that, often, this is the only course), to Seafood, to Poultry and Meat ("Evie and I have different relationships to meat. I like it. Evie can take it or leave it, and mostly she leaves it."), to Desserts ("This is one of the largest sections of the book. Evie always reminds me that desserts are a great way to postpone clearing up."), to Drinks ("I love cocktail hour. It feels like a reward for having gone so long without a cocktail"), all tied together with playful dialogue between Stephen and Evie and gorgeous shots of their food, family, and home."--

South of my dreams : finding my American home: a memoir / by Clementi, F. K.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 363-367).Chestnuts -- Bitter herbs -- The storm -- The island -- Éclair -- Autumn leaves -- The shore -- Acknowledgements -- Notes and translations."Woman plans, God laughs . . . Woman Persists. Introducing a new voice from the South that tells us with humor, panache, and raw frankness her irresistible story of what it means to become an American woman today. South of My Dreams follows the adventures and misadventures of Fania, a quixotic heroine, who dreamed all her life of making it big in New York City. Growing up in 1970s Italy and raised in the Jewish faith, Fania felt constrained by a stale bourgeois ambiance, corrupt society, and national culture hostile to women's independence. In pursuit of her childhood fantasy, and heavily influenced by Hollywood films, she leaves everything behind to begin her new life in New York, where she thinks her American Dream awaits. Instead, her American nightmare begins. From miraculous breakthroughs to tragic setbacks, Fania's path is marked by an irreparable trauma while also being graced by intense love, faithful friendships, and inspiring mentors. Through dramatic twists and turns-and to her great surprise--Fania learns the true meaning of the expression to "go south." Simultaneously merciless and humorous, F. K. Clementi's memoir is ultimately an inspiring account of a woman's disillusionment and personal rebirth. Entertaining, original, and poetic, South of My Dreams will resonate with all who fight hard for what they want and refuse to put aside their childhood dreams." -- Provided by publisher.

A passion for justice : J. Waties Waring and civil rights / by Yarbrough, Tinsley E.,1941-(CARDINAL)154185;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 249-274) and index.The S.O.B.'s -- The divorce -- Rejoining the union -- A passion for justice -- The false god of gradualism -- The witch of Meeting Street -- "Segregation is per se inequality" -- The New York years.An eighth-generation Charlestonian with a prestigious address, impeccable social credentials, and years of intimate association with segregationist politicians, U.S. District Court Judge Julius Waties Waring shocked family, friends, and an entire state in 1945 when, at age sixty-five, he divorced his wife of more than thirty years and embarked upon a far-reaching challenge to the most fundamental racial values of his native region. The first jurist in modern times to declare segregated schooling "inequality per se," Waring also ordered the equalization of teachers' salaries and outlawed South Carolina's white primary. Off the bench, he and his second wife--a twice-divorced, politically liberal Northerner who was even more outspoken in her political views than Waring himself--castigated Dixiecrats and southern liberals alike for their defense of segregation, condemned the "sickness" of white southern society, urged a complete breakdown of state-enforced bars to racial intermingling, and entertained blacks in their home, becoming pariahs in South Carolina and controversial figures nationally. Tinsley Yarbrough examines the life and career of this fascinating but neglected jurist, assessing the controversy he generated, his place in the early history of the modern civil rights movement, and the forces motivating his repudiation of his past - Publisher's information.
