a 100 percent inspirational, educational, and gastronomical fodder

AJ turned to a whole-foods diet to cure her ailments, and now
preaches to anyone and everyone through her culinary classes and
laugh-a-minute lectures. The recipes are all sugar-, salt-, and
oil-free, and all delicious. How can you not like a book that
starts with desserts?"
