Saying grace at mealtime is a time-honored tradition for many families and a newfound source of spiritual connection for others. Whether you're a master at giving the blessing or fairly new to this sacred art, Graces will bring inspiration to your meals and special gatherings.

Seeing the need for such inspiration at her family's table, June Cotner compiled a notebook of poems, prayers, and songs that she solicited from friends, strangers, family members, and ministers. She has turned her family's well-worn notebook into this elegantly packaged edition, which will complement your finest table settings.

Arranged by thirteen themes, this beautiful gift book contains poems, prayers, songs, invocations, and salutations by figures as diverse as Leunig and Browning, Emerson and Starhawk, Kahlil Gibran and Schweitzer. Whether you need a Sanskirt Salutation to the Dawn, a Gaelic Blessings, or ancient Chinese Prayer, Graces offers fitting words for every occasion.

Having a collection of original, traditional, and multicultural blessings makes it easy to share wisdom and insight with family and friends before meals or at special gatherings. The graces compiled here have been used by people of all religions beliefs, and special attention was given to how easily the words can be spoken by both adults and children.

Life if full of occasions when it seems appropriate to say grace. Graces contains 133 prayers, poems, and blessings that span the centuries and draw from many traditions. Bring spiritual focus to your meals by bringing Graces to your table.

THE "FABU-LISHOUS" FACE

Ever fight back an overwhelming urge to taste a succulent cheek? How about those pinchable, dewy, round, rosies — deliciously edible faces that could do with just a little nibbling — clean, clear, crisp, luscious, radiant skin that sets your senses tingling. Well, ladies and gentlemen, dazzling, wrinkle-and-blemish-free-skin can be yours at any age.

With the proper care, blemishes can fade, wrinkles diminish (or downright disappear), muscles tone, and skin glow all over — all without commercial cosmetics, in fact, better without commercial cosmetics.

Why? Simply because of the ingredients. You know what you are getting. You know the fixin’s are fresh, potent and preservative free. Even the best natural cosmetics, contain preservatives and lose vitality sitting on the shelf, and a papaya fresh from the market will “clarify” your skin without acetone, the expensive department store exfoliant that also removes nail polish.
End the cosmetics confusion. Forget all the options: “Should I tissue off, rub or rinse, freshen, astringe or tone?” Ignore all the hype! Good skin care is very simple. Beautiful skin has existed for centuries. Ask Cleopatra and the ladies of the French court. Just Treat Your Face Like a Salad! Clean it. Crisp it. Mist it. Press it. Dress it with nutrient replenishing, skin tightening, blemish fading, wrinkle-erasing, acne clearing natural at-home recipes and gourmet hints for a fabu-lishous face.

100 - 5 Ingredients or Less, Raw Food Recipes for Every Meal Occasion ('The Veggie Goddess' Vegetarian Cookbook Series)

100 - 5 Ingredients or Less, Raw Food Recipes for Every Meal Occasion ('The Veggie Goddess' Vegetarian Cookbook Series) Review

Regardless of what type of diet you choose to follow, natural health practitioners ALL recommend that at least 50% of your diet comes from raw foods. This means that whether you follow a vegetarian diet, a Paleo diet, a macrobiotic diet, Zone diet, low-carb, low-fat, or anything in-between diet, 50% of your daily intake should be from raw foods. Why is that?

Because eating raw foods, supplies your body with vital and very necessary enzymes, that are responsible for not just the digestion of the foods you eat, but also the proper assimilation of nutrients. Raw foods flood your body with vitamins, minerals and amino acids that cooked foods are devoid of. Cooking actually destroys both natural enzymes found in food, as well as many of the vitamins, minerals and amino acids as well. This is because enzymes and nutrients are heat-sensitive.

While many people fear the complexity or limitation of eating raw foods, most would be surprised to learn just how easy it is to get your minimum 50% raw food quota into your daily diet. And, we're not talking about just eating some fruit or vegetable 'as-is'. We're talking about raw appetizers, side dishes, main courses, desserts and more.

This being the second book in 'The Veggie Goddess' cookbook series, it continues to follow the 'easy for anyone to do' guideline, as presented in the first book of the series '100 - 5 Ingredients or Less, Easy and Delicious Vegetarian Recipes'.

You DON'T need a dehydrator.
You DON'T need a juicer.
You DON'T need a spiralizer.

The only items you'll need, to follow these amazingly simple and delicious raw food recipes, are a blender and cutting utensils. That's it. Check out the diverse selection of raw food recipes contained in this incredible cookbook.
