Ancient menstrual wisdom for modern women For our ancestors the menstrual cycle was a source of wonderful creative, spiritual, sexual, emotional, mental and physical energies. It was a gift that empowered women to renew themselves each month, to manifest and create the world around them, to connect deeply with the land and their family, and to express deep wisdom and inspiration. This ancient female teaching is still available to us in our mythology and nursery tales. Miranda Gray introduces modern women to their unique cyclic nature and guides them in accepting and expressing a passionate and creative cycle-empowered life. She explores the women's wisdom contained in western mythology and traditional stories and offers practical exercises and methods including the 'Moon Dial' to explore the depths of being a Cyclic Woman.

A paperback edition of a wonderfully evocative cookery manual by one of England's greatest modern food-writers. Her Honey from a Weed is a modern classic; her Plats du Jour, published in 1957, was an important step in the re-education of British cooks after the Second World War. The Centaur's Kitchen, however, had never (before 2005) been shown to the public, except in the galleys and staterooms of the ships that once sailed under the ensign of the Blue Funnel Line. It was written in 1964, at the request of the company chairman, to better instruct their Chinese cooks in cooking fresh and flavoursome food. In a few short chapters, Patience Gray lays out a whole repertoire, drawn mainly from the Mediterranean and France, that might be cooked on board ships. Her aim was to wean the cooks off frozen, dried and packeted food and to respond to both the seasons and the supplies available at ports of call. The style of cookery was much as in Plats du Jour: retro to us, bourgeois French in another form of shorthand. The style of writing is eloquent and prescriptive: the author keen to impart good habits as well as good cooking. Thus there are chapters about equipment and kitchen basics as well as mere recipes. The text has been illustrated by Miranda Gray, the author's daughter. Many of the pictures, just as the title, draw on Greek mythology. The reason for this is the Blue Funnel Line's custom of naming its ships for mythological figures (Centaur, Ariadne, Neptune, etc). Other drawings evoke the author's life beside the Mediterranean in Italy and the Greek isles. Patience Gray sadly died early in 2005. Her work has always been the intellectual acme of the cookery-book world. Although her output was tiny, her fame is infinite. There can be few cookery books that have been serialised as well as dramatised for radio both in Britain and America, as was Honey from a Weed over the past decade.

If you realize that you are overspending resulting in a depletion of your savings account, it's time to keep your spending in check. It takes a lot of discipline to stick to your financial plan. However, keeping to a financial goal is not that difficult if you start with the basics. Fortunately, there are effective strategies you can adopt to make sure you follow through on your good financial intentions. Miranda Grey examines these strategies such as being specific in her book How to Save Money. Be specific about what you want to achieve out of your financial plan. Decide how much you should save each month or how you should pay off your credit card debt. For example, specifying $200 as the sum you should save each month will help you to visualize and reach that target instead of simply saying 'I'd like to save some money per month. Likewise the motto 'Cut down on grooming expenses' sounds vague and less concrete. How about turning it to 'Spend no more than $100 each month on grooming'? This puts your goal into perspective.
