When Alice Mpofu-Coles, a former Zimbabwean diplomat, was diagnosed with breast cancer, the news came as a blow. Having experienced the deaths of her parents, four brothers, and husband in the twelve years prior to diagnosis, left alone to battle her illness while caring for two small daughters, she turned to God. Many might react with surprise at the thought that someone would be grateful for a cancer diagnosis. But within the pages of Dear God From Your Poached Egg Breast, Alice Mpofu-Coles triumphs over her hardship. Living in the UK as a refugee, answers were difficult to find, so she turned to herself and found strength she never knew she had--strength to live, strength to love, and strength to survive. Intimate and organic, her story illustrates one woman's battle to understand why cancer chose her and how she coped while caring for her children and even furthering her education. Infused with African innuendos and humour, her conversations with God will make readers laugh, cry, and face their own mortality with grace.

False conspiracies about Jesus. Mason finds Christianity/Catholic religions difficult to believe. His father forces him down a dark path to victory, to the present day, and destroy God’s church. When you were young, what did you think of God? Do heaven and hell really exist; or in our heads? A trip to Jerusalem will explain it all. Did Jesus really die on the cross? Or was it all a children’s story for bedtime turned into reality? Where is your humanity? Money/politics or fame is not God.

“Tyler and his approach to sandwiches are equal parts clever, hilarious, and deeply dirty (in all the right ways). I’m obsessed with the never-ending possibility of what a sandwich can be, and so I’m a supreme fan girl of everything that Tyler and his crazy mind inserts between these pages and two pieces of bread.” —Christina Tosi Known genius and broccoli savant Tyler Kord is chef-owner of the lauded No. 7 Sub shops in New York. He is also a fabulously neurotic man who directs his energy into ruminations on sandwich philosophy, love, self-loathing, pay phones, getting drunk in the shower, Tom Cruise, food ethics, and what it's like having the names of two different women tattooed on your body. But being a chef means that it's your job to make people happy, and so, to thank you for being there while he works out his issues, he offers you this collection of truly excellent recipes, like roast beef with crispy shallots and smoky French dressing, a mind-blowing mayonnaise that tastes exactly like pho, or so many ways to make vegetables into sandiwches that you may never eat salad again. A Super Upsetting Cookbook About Sandwiches will make you laugh, make you cry, and most of all, make you hungry.

Let's face it, today we are inundated with articles about cooking, food, and wine in almost every part of our lives. From The Wall Street Journal to Playboy Magazine, you'd be hard pressed not to find a commentary related to the subject of food. At a time when I'm trying to figure out my best financial opportunities or determine which girl of the SEC is the best looking, why am I being told how to cook something? The simple answer is women. Don't get me wrong, a quick glance at any men's magazine will always yield the same redundant taglines; "Lose your Gut," "1001 Financial Solutions," or "Score your Dream Job" on the cover. However, by now the majority of writers have exhausted the subjects of health, wealth, and power as a means to attract women, and they realize that cooking is just another avenue that they can use to appeal to the wants and needs of their readers. Don't trust me? Take a stroll through the magazine aisle at your local grocery store, and you might find that even Field and Stream has gone haute-cuisine on your latest hunt. Confused by the last sentence? Good, this book is for you.
