As a follow up, but not quite a sequel, to my book, The Psychiatric Salad Bar: Adventures in Autism and alternative Realities, I had planned to offer up travel tips down the road of raising an autistic child, and to a degree, I have, but I decided to branch out and cover the plethora of roads leading to and from other crazy towns….because, well, there are so many out there. What we're talking about here is being driven to the edge and left there teetering with your hair on fire. Anyone who has had a bad customer experience with the monolith Comcast knows what I am talking about. That appears in the piece entitled, "Comcast…Love it or List it."It's enough to give you gas," is a piece about the year and a half journey to convert from oil to gas heating. The stories of consumers getting screwed are legion. But it's more than that. Saving the life of a baby robin, left behind, by feeding it baloney and cheese sandwiches…or the piece about the post retirement hobbies of learning the guitar and offering up an homage to Jimi Hendrix not just by eating a six cheese pizza off the strings, but a fifty shades of arugula salad as well. The book is filled with a diverse collection of rants, like "Entropy Now" in which we learn that smart appliances aren't really all that bright especially when a nearby lightning strike can convince your refrigerator that it is a microwave oven; cooks all the food and invites your Facebook friends over for dinner. There are observations and flights of fancy, conjecture about what could have been. If only there were a different mix of animals at the "First Parish's First Annual Blessing of the Pets" aka, "The Running of the Hamsters," it could have gone viral. There's something for everyone. Enjoy. SQ Adams

Pleasurable Kingdom presents new evidence that animals-like humans-enjoy themselves. From birds to baboons, insects to iguanas, animals feel good thanks to play, sex, touch, food, anticipation, comfort, aesthetics, and more. Combining rigorous evidence, elegant argument and amusing anecdotes, leading animal behavior researcher Jonathan Balcombe shows that the possibility of positive feelings in creatures other than humans has important ethical ramifications for both science and society.

At last, oats that people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance can enjoy, too! Our Gluten Free Thick Rolled Oats are made from oats grown by our cooperative of over 200 farmers dedicated to growing only pure, high-grade oats. Each farm delivery is sampled hundreds of times and tested with an R5 ELISA gluten test to ensure the absence of gluten. Advanced color-sorting removes undetected impurities. Finally, the oats are packaged in our 100% gluten free facility and tested for gluten again to ensure their purity. Thick Rolled Oats (and we mean nice and extra thick!) are uniquely Kiln Toasted. These extra chewy oats produce extremely satisfying robust European-style cereal and yeast breads. Oats as we know them today originate from the wild red oat, a plant with origins in Asia. Originally cultivated for medicinal purposes, they were used as animal feed for a long time before humans deemed them fit for consumption. Oats helped fuel the civil wars in Scotland and have deep roots in Great Britain, Germany and Scandinavia. Today oats are widely accepted as nutritional powerhouses for dietary fiber and protein. Oats contain a special type of fiber that is especially good for the reduction of cholesterol called beta-glucan. Beta-glucans also aid in the support of the immune system and can help regulate blood sugar. They are also wonderful for soothing irritated skin when used in baths. Ask the person next to you to name all the ways we can eat oats, and as oatmeal porridge, for breakfast - would be the likely answer, followed quickly by oatmeal cookies, granola, and granola bars. But that's only the beginning. There are many ways you can cook with oats. They make a great crispy coating; they extend meatloaf and burgers, while enhancing their juiciness; or they can make a savory side dish. For 20 fun and unique ways to shake up your bowl of oatmeal visit bobsredmill.com - oatmeal.

Oh Gussie, am I thrilled to share my first cookbook! I love cooking for folks about as much as I love to sing. Nothing warms my heart as much as being with family and friends around a table sharing a meal. In my book, getting the whole gang in the kitchen together to cook is about as much fun as you can have. I grew up in the Appalachian foothills of north Georgia, where summers were filled with fresh peaches and sweet corn, fall was apple-harvest time, winter brought collard greens, and early peas signaled spring had arrived. My loving grandmothers and mother made thoughtful USE of the bounty and taught me a lot about love and life as they passed down family recipes. I'm so happy to share family recipes for Maw Maw's Biscuits, Gram's Sheet Cake, and New Bride's Vegetable Beef Soup with y'all.I make my home in Nashville now, and spending time in the kitchen with my daughter is one of my greatest joys. We'll whip up Blueberry Cornbread Cupcakes, Crazy Daisy's Squares packed with butterscotch and pecans, or a big pitcher of orange Dreamsicle Punch, getting tickled the whole time. When cooking for the family, Chicken and Herb White Pizza, Three-Alarm Enchiladas, and Pork Tenderloin with Slow-Cooked Applesauce makes everybody happy and full. Celebrating with my bandmates from Little Big Town is always a good ol' time! Whether I'm cooking up Pineapple Casserole to take on the tour bus, baking a Chocolate Cherry Cola Cake for a birthday, or fueling late-night recording sessions with honey-and-vanilla-drizzled Fruit and Cheese Kebabs, we spend a good deal of time tapping our toes and licking our lips. We Southerners love our sweets and treats, and speedy Lazy Woman's Strawberry Pie, Fresh Glazed Apple Cake, and fluffy meringue-topped Grandmother's Coconut Pudding are sure to fit the bill! In these pages I've gathered heirloom family recipes, updates on Southern classics, and some quick dinners for modern families on the go. Let's sit a spell and enjoy a good visit in the.
