Sexual roles are constantly being challenged - never more so than in the kitchen. The sisters have been doing it for themselves for a while now, so the time has come for the brothers to go beyond. Men have been doing the eating for long enough; it's time to master the preparation, to boldly go where most fear to tread - to take over the kitchen!
Men have long been denied the right to hunt, and have replaced their lust for the kill with sport and the support thereof. Now new urban warriors are looking for more creative pastures to conquer.

Kitchen Cowboys will equip you with the know-how to make this challenging arena your new hunting ground. The book will rekindle that pioneering spirit, release the outlaw. It will equip you for intimate dinners, brunches with family and friends, and braais that will make men quiver and women swoon. It will imbue you with baking prowess that will leave swollen bellies in its wake, provide eastern secrets that will stun and mystify, and empower you with the skill to rustle up desserts that will melt the sternest resolve.
More importantly, you will find tips to build an appreciation for all things vinous that will make Bacchus a proud and mighty god.

All is well, you are safe. Life loves you, and so do I.”
—Louise Hay

Following on from her Sunday Times bestseller, I Wish I Knew This Earlier, Toni Tone is back again – and this time, filled with advice that goes beyond our dating and romantic lives. ‘In my opinion, change as a form of evolution is wonderful, because nobody should stay exactly the same forever. If you’re not evolving or growing, what are you doing? Embrace personal change if it means the you of today is better than you of yesterday.’ Do you wish you had more confidence in yourself? Are your friendships changing as you get older and you’re not sure how manage it? Is your career unfulfilling or taking over your life? These are the kinds of issues that Toni Tone explores in her brand-new book, Take Note: Real Life Lessons. Threading in her own experiences, and in particular, what she took away from her twenties, Toni provides genuine and insightful advice on a whole array of topics. Everything from ageing to making (and ending) friendships, to reinventing yourself and challenging your comfort zone, to ignoring ‘deadlines’ and going at your own pace – Take Note has all of the ingredients you’ll need to reach your fullest potential, in one handy, accessible place.

Most gardens do not have smooth, flat lawns and borders of rich, easily dug soil. We have to put up with damp, sunless corridors between houses, awkward slopes or plots shaded by trees or neighbouring buildings. Equally difficult to plant are seaside gardens exposed to gale-force winds and salt spray; waterlogged plots, where the drainage is poor; and dry ground exposed to the glare of the sun day after day, without the slightest shade. In short, few gardens benefit from perfect conditions. What you need for these sites are tough plants that will not only shrug off all the worst conditions in your garden but will actually thrive in them. Tough Plants for Tough Places includes a directory of nearly 100 plants that are practically invincible in the specific hostile conditions they have evolved to cope with.
