The Breathe Easy deck.......2007-06-27

I was introduced to the Breathe Easy deck by a friend who shared hers with me. I enjoyed it so much that I wanted my own. I think it is synchonicity personified. The card I draw daily consistently speaks to a struggle I am currently experiencing and helps me adjust my perspective. The deck keeps me in a learning and changing posture.

I enjoyed this deck!.......2005-11-28

I liked the simplicity of the deck. The easy breath in and out made it a natural. The cards are beautifully done, as I always can count on, and the cardstock is very sturdy. Personally, I love the pop-off top kinda deck container, as it makes it easy to keep everything all together.

Another great item to add to you metaphysical kit. This one would also make a wonderful stocking stuffer for someone somewhat new to meditation and or affirmations!

Breathing Exercises and Affirmations From the Enchanted Couple.......2005-11-28

"With The Breathe Easy Deck, gentle reminders to breathe deeply are right at your fingertips. The exercises on these cards are vital to a daily holistic practice. We advocate picking one card a day upon arising in the morning and practicing the exercise written on it before you start your other efforts to get ready for the day." - Amy Zerner and Monte Farber

Many religious traditions and cultures have similar words for "breath" and "spirit". Amy Zerner and Monte Farber-known as "The Enchanted Couple"-recognize and celebrate this interconnection in The Breathe Easy Deck.

Featuring 36 affirmation cards, this deck provides easy breathing exercises and visualizations to enhance energy and relaxed concentration. On the front of the cards, images of Amy's beautiful tapestries are nestled amidst vibrant borders of varying shades of blue. The back of the cards are canary yellow with affirmations and meditations in blue script.

Some of the themes and affirmations from this deck include:

Balance - I am balanced.

Everything in moderation, nothing in excess; this is the way to lead a life of quality and meaning.

I breathe in the perfection of the earth, the water, and the sky. I am filled with nature's grand design. I breathe out my self-destructive tendencies.

Openness - I am open.

When we open ourselves up to the truth, we show real faith-and then miracles can happen.

I breathe in the faith that things that I do not know and cannot see at this time will work out for the best. I am filled with receptiveness. I breathe out close-mindedness.

An Eastern flair graces The Breathe Easy Deck and the cards come in a box like that of the Healing Dec where the top lifts off. Unlike the Healing Deck, however, these cards remove easily from the box, which is good news for those with arthritis or carpal tunnel.

If you are drawn to exercises where you "breathe in" one concept and "breathe out" another, you'll likely enjoy The Breathe Easy Deck. The interesting thing is that I once heard a spiritual teacher say that when someone "breathes out" a form of "negativity" that they're participating in energetic/spiritual pollution. This Buddhist teacher made the case for breathing IN difficulties, transmuting them from within, and then breathing out good vibes and positive thoughts. To be honest, this makes much more sense to me than breathing out the "bad" and polluting the energetic environment.

Still, if you'd like to increase mindfulness through breathing and affirmations, The Breathe Easy Deck may appeal to your preferences.

Book Description

The What's-for-Dinner Cookbook is the brainchild of two friends who for years had asked themselves, “What are we going to have for dinner?” as they thought of how they would feed their families every evening. The result is a cookbook and kitchen planner designed to help organize the kitchen, plan meals a week at a time, and organize shopping so that the ingredients needed for every meal are available at the right time.

Based on the four seasons of the year, the book provides five days of planned, well-balanced dinners for every week. The recipes are kitchen-tested family favorites with an emphasis on fresh seasonal foods, thus encouraging homemakers to save significant money by purchasing ingredients when they are most abundant. Most of the recipes can be prepared in 30 minutes or less. They are presented in such a way that leftovers, such as chicken or roast, can be included in meals planned for later in a week.

Quick tips designed to save time and expense are also included. These address such practical matters as when to shred extra cheese or chop an additional onion for use later in the week, which can save time in preparing meals. Extensive weekly and bulk shopping lists are coded by day to allow for family tastes or the requirements of special diets.

The What's-for-Dinner Cookbook is perfect for busy moms, new parents and working parents, newlyweds and those who have cooked for their families for years. Never worry about dinner again. The planning is already done. COOKING; COOKBOOKS 7” X 9”, 368 PAGES PAPERBACK

Tomatoes in spring (huh?) and instant white rice.......2006-12-21

I was very disappointed with this cookbook. It claims to use fresh, seasonal foods, then has you using tomatoes in spring and instant white rice (along with many other prepackaged, processed "foods"). Maybe tomatoes are a spring veggie in California (which is where the authors live), but they're a _summer_ veggie here in Michigan! I guess if you're so busy that you can only take 30 minutes to cook dinner and don't mind eating less nutritive food, this might be a good cookbook for you, but if you want truly fresh, seasonal, good-tasting, REAL food recipes, buy _Simply in Season_ by Mary Beth Lind and Cathleen Hockman-Wert instead.

Less planning, more free time, great gift!.......2006-08-29

I absolutely love, love, love this cookbook! I hate to cook! But now I'm enjoying it because I no longer have to plan meals or make shopping lists it's all done for me! I love the recipes, they're simple and time saving. The shopping lists are divided buy catagory and if you don't want to make a particular meal the items are numbered so you can quickly and easily delete them from the list! This is a well thought out cookbook! My family and friends all want one! Needless to say, I'm ordering more!

I'm returning mine!.......2004-07-25

What a disappointment!

There is no nutritional information for any of the recipes. Although the recipes have minimal prep time (15-30 minutes), many require over an hour cook time. Also, the recipes have numerous ingredients - lots of cream of soups and fillers - blech! This is NOT a good cookbook for a busy mom who wants to know the nutritional value of meals. I am sending mine back for a refund.

Enhanced with time-saving tips & seasonal menus at a glance.......2002-08-10

The What's-For-Dinner Cookbook is a superbly presented, highly recommended kitchen planner specifically designed by Kathleen Botta and Claire Mendonca to be a "user friendly" organizers for the kitchen so that busy cooks can plan meals a week at a time, organize shopping so that the ingredients needed for every meal is available at the right time, and to have a more economically, nutritionally, and seasonally advantageous dining experience for the family. A wonderful compendium of recipes ranging from Tuna-Water Chestnut Casserole; Armenian Shish Kebabs; and Garlic Prawns; to Beefy Onion Pie; Spicy and Sweet Pork Chips; and Korean Stew, The What's-For-Dinner Cookbook is additionally enhanced with time-saving tips and seasonal menus at a glance.

Book Description

Landscape architecture is a key profession for a world facing an uncertain environmental future. Yet it is hindered by a chronic identity crisis: Is it primarily concerned with making beautiful places, helping people or saving the planet from ecological catastrophe? This book examines the three principle value systems which influence landscape architectural practice, the aesthetic, the social and the environmental, and seeks to discover the role that the profession should be playing now and for the future.

Customer Reviews:

FOTO DE ESCRITOR (1963-1973) Sara Facio.......1999-12-19

Outstanding portraits by Sara Facio of excellent Latin American writers. The comment of the photographer while she was doing the shots, and the writers' reactions, are like a spoken portrait that adds beauty and richness. The texts of the writers add another angle to the general portrait. Many of the women writers included are not as well known, but are also outstanding. Great book.

Book Description

The candid, poignant, unforgettable writing of the young girl whose own life story has become an everlasting source of courage and inspiration.

Hiding from the Nazis in the “Secret Annex” of an old office building in Amsterdam, a thirteen-year-old girl named Anne Frank became a writer. The now famous diary of her private life and thoughts reveals only part of Anne’s story, however. This book rounds out the portrait of this remarkable and talented young author.

Newly translated, complete, and restored to the original order in which Anne herself wrote them in her notebook, Tales from the Secret Annex is a collection of Anne Frank’s lesser-known writings: short stories, fables, personal reminiscences, and an unfinished novel, Cady’s Life.

Customer Reviews:

What a great author she may have been .......2005-08-19

This wonderful little book is a collection of Anne Frank's lesser known writings , found in a seperate volume.
It shows what a phenomenal young writer she was , and hints what a great author she may have been had she been allowed to live.

The book consists of fables and short stories as well as personal reminiscenses and essays.

They range from 'Kitty' - Anne's reflections on the blonde little girl next door , to beautiful fairy tales (which remind me a bit of Oscar Wilde's fairy tales) like 'The Wise Old Dwarf' and 'The Fairy'-all have a wonderful lesson enclosed within.

'Paula's Plane Trip' and 'Cady's Life' focus on the adventures of young girls during wartime , the latter touching on the holocaust which later swallowed up Anne's young life.

A constant theme in the book is Anne's conviction that relaxing and connecting with nature , can ease one's mind from any difficulties.

In 'Personal Remininscinces and Essays' Anne Frank lets us know a little bit more about life in the little house where she and other Jews hid for some years from Nazi terror.
In a particularly poignant passage , she remarks that after the war , she would get together photos of the people in the house, which is why she spent so little time on physical description of the house's inhabitants. Anne was confident she would survive the war , and recontinue her life.

A remarkable testament to the wonderful life of a child whose life was cut so short.

Great stories and reminicenses from a talented young girl........2003-09-03

I truly enjoyed Anne Frank's Diary, now I have had the privilege to read her tales. A talent in it's purest form. I believe it was Anne Frank who said she wanted to be famous and/or to live on after her death, and of course she has in so many ways. Her diary has sold millions upon millions of copies around the world, her story told in a broadway play, countless films and documentary's.To me it looks like Anne has gotten her wish, she has lived on, more than she'll ever know. I like so many other's have wondered what kind of person Anne Frank would have been if she had survived, of course we will never know, but her diary and her story's were left behind to be discovered and to be told to everyone around the world, what a good person we could have a had on this planet, a great and talented young girl who was taken away but not forgotten.

Something other then the diary.......2003-01-26

Ok, so Anne's diary will almost always out shadow other stories shes written, and with good reason, but the stories here are rather well written. The 1st half of the book contains actuall stories she was writting, some short, some long, and part of an unfinished novel. The 2nd half of the story is memories of events that happend to her in her life that she wrote down.
Anyone who likes her diary should really give her stories a read.

Unforgettable stories for young and old alike........2002-01-29

In her now famous Diary, Anne Frank said "I want to go on living even after my death". As of 1998, The Diary of Anne Frank had reached sales of 25 million copies and been translated into more than 50 languages. (source: TIME, October 5, 1998). It has been required classroom reading for half a century now! In a way, her wish has come to pass.
This subsequent publication "Tales From The Secret Annex" combines short stories, reminiscences/vignettes, and even an unfinished novel to show us yet another dimension to this remarkable person. Reading these stories and little essays confirmed my personal opinion that Anne Frank was a childhood genius with unlimited potential to achieve anything she would have set her mind to. It's hard to imagine this thirteen year old girl writing with such depth and perception, while living in seclusion, terror and fear for her life. She was writing from her heart, not with an expectation of being published. And yet these stories shine with a polished brilliance, and a certain unforgettable quality. I read this book for the first time 8 years ago, and have returned to it now, remembering the stories as though I had read them just last week. My favorite is entitled "Kathy". In three short pages, Anne captures every emotion experienced by a kid who is misunderstood by her mother, assaulted by schoolyard bullies who mock and rob her and cause her to lose the gift she was bringing home to her mother.

Here is how she ends her essay entitled "Give":
"If only our country and then Europe and finally the whole world would realize that people were really kindly disposed toward one another, that they are all equal and everything else is transitory!
Open your eyes... give of yourself, give as much as you can! And you can always, always give something, even if it is only kindness! No one has ever become poor from giving! If you do this, then in a few generations no one will need to pity the beggar children anymore, because they will not exist!
There is plenty of room for everyone in the world, enough money, riches, and beauty for all to share! God has made enough for everyone. Let us all begin by sharing it fairly." (written March 26, 1944).

Anne was sent to Bergen-Belsen, where some time during March 1945, she, her sister Margot and hundreds of other prisoners were stricken with typhus. Their captors, preoccupied with the advancing Allies, left them to die.
World... read her book!

Stories from a gifted writer who was never allowed to be..........2001-03-06

Also published under the title "Tales from the House Behind," this is a collection of juvenile/young adult stories that Anne Frank worked on during her years in hiding in the annex with her family and fellow fugitives. It proves that this young girl had an incredible gift for writing, and that had she lived she probably would have been received the Noble Prize for Literature. Her stories were often candid indictments of her own family life, such as Kitty, which tells the story of a young girl who day-dreams and a mother who wants her child to listen and obey rather than dream. Anne's essays show an in-depth understanding of human nature, surprising for one so young. This is a poignant book filled with fables, short stories, essays and even part of an unfinished novel. It's worth reading after you have read "The Diary of Anne Frank" simply because the diary will give you more insight to this amazing girl's life. However "Tales from the Secret Annex" stands on its own too, and like the diary should be on every school child's list of books to read.
