Overview

Real Thai has gone vegetarian! Everyone loves Thai food, but it's not easy to find truly meatless dishes. Thai cooking expert Nancie McDermott has developed inventive variations on traditional recipes, providing health-conscious cooks with a repertoire of meatless dishes that captures the vibrant spirit of Thailand.

In After 50: Spiritually Embracing Your Own Wisdom Years, Robert Wicks (Touching the Holy) offers his own reflections on spiritual growth after 50. Using stories, anecdotes, prayers and humor, Wicks shows that the acts of praying, caring and nurturing are central to embracing the spiritual depths of our wisdom years. In his closing poem, Wicks urges readers to "Remember a kindness/ Help the poor/ Live gratefully/ Tell God a funny story" as a means of "nurturing a hopeful heart." Encouraging and engaging spiritual reflections for the wisdom years.
