Erma Gray is a pioneer and leader in the world of entrepreneurship-and has worked hard all of her life to be the best at anything she put her mind to. Her mother and grandmother were known and respected in the community as great cooks. Erma had no choice but to start out cooking with her mother at an early age. Her mother was a perfectionalist and Erma had to help her mother prepare the meals daily.

Don't deviate, and get off course. You'll enjoy healthy cooking at its best and so will your family.

She has recipes for meals that can be ready in 30 minutes or less. Also, she has included her mouth watering desserts that will stimulate your taste buds and satisfy your cravings. Erma has her favorite selections of holiday foods and tips that have made meals flavorful, attractive, and awesomely delicious.

If you learn how to cook, you can save money and spend quality time with your loved ones or friends. I especially want to focus on young married couples getting off to a good start in the kitchen. The kitchen can be a great place for unity and communication. I believe that the world would be a better place if families could come together and enjoy one another. Erma was born and raised in Shelby, Mississippi. She attended Broad Street High School. Erma worked for such companies as Baxter Laboratory, St. Regis Paper Company, Hormel Foods and Quaker Oats.

"Eat, Fish, and Be Happy" is more than just an assortment of recipes that Chef Weston created while cooking in Alaska. This is a collection of some of the best foods that he had the pleasure of preparing at the sportfishing lodge where he was the chef. The waters surrounding the island are home to some of the best seafood in the world, ranging from wild salmon and halibut to cold water prawns and crab. This project started as an attempt to organize all of the recipes that were in his head, with the notes randomly scribbled on little pieces of paper, and with ideas that he had been playing with over the years.

He spent the winter months organizing and refining all of his recipes until he had the basis of a book that he brought back with him the following summer. Once he completed this task, he was able to find a recipe when a client asked for one or wanted some suggestions for what to do with the fish that they caught. The response to that first book was very positive, so he continued updating and refining it until he got what he considered to be the best of his Alaskan experiences, shared here in "Eat, Fish, and Be Happy."

Top Secret Tips Unveiled Within!
A blend of Love, Time and Respect for family and the love of cooking.

Fergus Henderson caused something of a sensation when he opened his restaurant St John in London in 1995. Set in a former smokehouse near Smithfield meat market, its striking, high ceilinged white interior provides a dramatic setting for food of dazzling boldness and simplicity. As signalled by the restaurant's logo of a pig (reproduced on the cover of Nose to Tail Eating) and appropriately given the location, at St John the emphasis is firmly on meat. And not the noisettes, fillets, magrets and so forth of standard restaurant portion-control, all piled up into little towers in the middle of the plate: Henderson serves up the inner organs of beasts and fowls in big, exhilarating dishes that combine high sophistication with peasant roughness. Nose to Tail Eating is a collection of these recipes, celebrating, as the title implies, the thrifty rural British traditions of making delicious virtue out of using every part of the animal. This new edition, beautifully redesigned, comes with an introduction by Anthony Bourdain.
