Sitting in Bars with Cake
It's hard to meet people in a big city, let alone any city. And after living in LA for several years as a single lady, Audrey Shulman turned to baking. But rather than eating her cakes solo over the sink, she brought them to bars, luring guys with a heady dose of butter and wkkk.net in Bars with Cake recounts Audrey's year spent baking, bar-hopping, and offering slices of cake to men in the hope of finding her boyfriend (or, at the very least, a date). With 35 inventive recipes based on her interactions with guys from all walks of life, from a Sticky Maple Kiss Cake to a Bitter Chocolate Dump Cake, this charming book pairs each cake with a short essay and tongue-in-cheek lesson about picking up boys in bars.写给孩子的世界地理
本书像是一本“历险”之作。在书中,作者就像是一位经验颇丰、风趣幽默的环球导游,边走边以优美、富有童趣的语言给孩子们讲解各地的风土人情、山川河流。在作者笔下原本枯燥乏味的地理常识变得鲜活生动、兴味盎然。读完这本书,如同跟作者进行了一次轻松愉悦的环球之旅。The Wheel Spins
Best known as the basis for Alfred HItchcock's classic film The Lady Vanishes, Ethel White's book The Wheel Spins is a gripping and accomplished work in its own right. The plot is deceptively simple and the premise is classic: a woman meets a mysterious stranger during a long railway journey. It's easy to see in this novel what Hitchcock found so compelling and so well-suited to his particular brand of filmmaking.
