Butter: Comforting, Delicious, Versatile - Over 130 Recipes Celebrating Butter

Product Information

The last time I bought butter was more than a year ago, to bake thank-you brownies for a friend; the time before that was. What I did like was that it’s about a boy who’s morbidly obese, and has a lot of health issues related to his weight. Butter makes up his mind life is no longer worth living but decides to go out with a bang, announcing that he plans to eat himself to death live on the internet on December 31st. In the real world, the "big three" of diabetic symptoms - which is pretty common knowledge - is sweating, thirst, and confusion. An endlessly entertaining and sharply insightful look at the relationships between women and how they engage and challenge one another, revealing the many contradictions and complexities in the process, Asako Yuzuki’s novel is filled with intoxicating descriptions of food and the body that also looks deeply at its connection to the sinister, criminal, and taboo, its enduring power and delight.

Yes, you need like 40% of your diet to be carbs if you're diabetic, but what you really need to focus more on is fiber and proteins and fats.

Particularly good food history examining the role of butter--Tibetan yak butter sculpting as a religious ritual, butter churning and early modern bawdy songs, Marie Antoinette's Trianon milking parlor, the household importance of "butter and egg money," oleo and little coloring packets, modern pasteurization and production, EU PDO restrictions, the Iowa State Fair sculpture of a cow, springhouses, Reformation resentments in Northern Europe over Lenten restrictions on butter (you southerners have olive oil!

In an ultimately strange direction, Erin Lange managed to take on a totally unique form of bullying – where the bullies appear to be your friends but encourage you and pressure you into doing what you don't essentially want to be doing. I am honestly tempted to get a copy of this book just for this section because many of the recipes (such as the lemon curd and the scones) sound fantastic. There's no clear message - which is a positive and a negative - and I never really understood Butter, but still felt somewhat sorry for him. A book about butter perhaps does not have the same wide appeal as butter itself, but for foodies, it absolutely does.Butter had a fantastic voice, and this was one of the rare instances where I felt like the tackling of a weight issue in a YA book was handled well. We might see the rise of interest in artisanal and rare butters as just another foodie-fad, a preoccupation of the overly well-fed. She created TLT in 2011 and is the co-editor of The Whole Library Handbook: Teen Services with Heather Booth (ALA Editions, 2014). It's dull and while the author clearly has enthusiasm for her subject, I can't say it really transferred into making the writing more interesting for the reader.

His love for music has lost its shine, and even his online chats with Anna, the girl of his dreams, have to be carried out under a false persona. According to Lange's information if you're diabetic and you eat a 5 pound bag of sugar you'll just get a little fatter. I'm not the best to judge, but I do think Erin Jade Lange handled the difficult topic of child obesity with great tact and grace. When Butter makes his announcement, strangers come out of the woodwork and decide that they are going to be his “friend”. Cleverly balancing darkness and light, this is a unique young adult novel which takes an unflinching look at the isuses of bingeing, overeating, depression and suicide.

Gourmet cook Manako Kajii sits in Tokyo Detention Centre convicted of the serial murders of lonely businessmen, who she is said to have seduced with her delicious home cooking. There are so many ways this book could have preached about obesity or about bullying, but it doesn't - it just tells a story. I was completely and utterly horrified to read how margarine was originally made, "from rendering oil from caul fat of beef".
