![]() ![]() The gremlin lurking in my brain disapproves of my dazed contentment. Right now I’m more focused on the fact Dani has a mouth, and that it’s objectively the best mouth in the entire world and why her mouth of all mouths is so good at doing this kissing thing. Yes, this is my bizarre and occasionally useful superpower: I talk to objects and they talk back. They’re all way over-invested in my relationship. We’re in the closet because I’m hiding from my pillow, two entire clocks, and the other sentient objects in my house. It’s dark and cramped and I care about none of that because her kisses, and please excuse the flowery language here, are like fucking whoa. ![]() That’s not a metaphor-we’re literally jammed into the tiny storage space off my hallway. So this is my life: I’m in the closet and I’m making out with my girlfriend.

In Tudor England, silk, velvet, and fur were reserved for the nobility, and ballooning pants called “trunk hose” could be considered a menace to good order. Merchants dressing like princes and butchers’ wives wearing gem-encrusted crowns were public enemies in medieval societies structured by social hierarchy and defined by spectacle. For centuries, clothing has been a wearable status symbol fashion, a weapon in struggles for social change and dress codes, a way to maintain political control. ![]() A “sharp and entertaining” ( The Wall Street Journal) exploration of fashion through the ages that asks what our clothing reveals about ourselves and our society.ĭress codes are as old as clothing itself. ![]() ![]() On the gorgeous island, magic is everywhere.

Life is anything but perfect for Hallie Hartley, a young physical therapist who has given up nearly everything - even her love life - for her beautiful stepsister, Shelly. ![]() ![]() ![]() Ever After concludes N ew York Times bestselling author Jude Deveraux's breathtaking Nantucket Brides trilogy, introducing characters from a new generation of Montgomery-Taggerts, the beloved family from her classic novels. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() She recalls a chef who took their team up to the Appalachians and cleared whole areas, thus decimating the plants there. This article aims to educate new foragers on ways to harvest materials in ways that are both ethical and sustainable in order to protect the natural land.Īccording to Botanologos School of Herbal Studies founder Patricia Kyritsi Howell, foraging has become “much more mainstream in the last 10 years,” particularly in the culinary arts where incorporating wild ingredients is now trendy. While much of the content we see online can be entertaining and educational, there is a missed cautionary step that fails to highlight appropriate practices one should keep in mind when foraging. As it becomes popularized by social media, we risk depleting these resources and disrupting the local ecosystem. However, with the recent rise in the popularity of foraging, it is increasingly important to discuss healthy practices for this age-old tradition.įoraging is the act of searching for wild resources to be used as food and/or medicine and is still practiced in cultures around the world today. ![]() Many foragers have already begun wandering out into the woods to harvest these enticing treasures. The equinox came and went and spring has arrived, ushering in a bounty of wild greens and fungi. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() "Many of Katherine Anne Porter's stories are unsurpassed in modern fiction," said Robert Penn Warren. According to Reynolds Price the tale "can stand shoulder to shoulder with anything in Tolstoy or Chekhov." Both "Old Mortality" and the title story center on Porter's fictional counterpart, Miranda: a resilient Southern heroine who, as Mary Gordon observed, is in "the precarious position of a woman who must earn her way with no one behind her to break her fall." In the masterly "Noon Wine," set on a Texas farm circa 1900, she offers an unforgettable study of evil. ![]() Pale Horse, Pale Rider comprises three of the Pulitzer Prize-winning author's short novels or long stories, as Porter-who didn't hold with the term "novella"-called her pieces. "They show surface only at her choosing." "Most good stories are about the interior of our lives, but Katherine Anne Porter's stories take place there," said Eudora Welty. ![]() ![]() I am SO impressed." -Seanan McGuire, New York Times bestselling author "A roller coaster of nail-biting thrills combined with top-notch world-building, palpable heat, and real emotional stakes.

Part of my research for getting ready to write about my character Piper McLean again, I figured I would read the history of the Cherokee Nation as written by Conley, a Cherokee author. For those who want to know more about Cherokee heritage and history, Conley offers additional reading lists at the end of each chapter. Following the history is a listing of the Principal Chiefs of the Cherokees with a brief biography of each and separate listings of the chiefs of the Eastern Cherokees and the Western Cherokees. Conley provides analyses for general readers of all ages to learn the significance of tribal lore and Cherokee tribal law. ![]() He traces their forced migrations west, relates their participations on both sides of the Civil War and the wars of the twentieth century, and concludes with an examination of Cherokee life today. ![]() He then explores their relations with neighboring Indian groups and European missionaries and settlers. Robert Conley begins his survey with Cherokee origin myths and legends. The first history of the Cherokees to appear in over four decades, this is also the first to be endorsed by the tribe and the first to be written by a Cherokee. The Cherokee Nation is one of the largest and most important of all the American Indian tribes. ![]() ![]() ![]() Louise Hay, internationally bestselling author of YOU CAN HEAL YOUR LIFE The amazing in-depth information in the Seth books is as relevant today as it was in the early 70s when Jane Roberts first channeled this material.” “I would like to see the Seth books as required reading for anyone on their spiritual pathway.
