The Raw Till 4 Diet by Freelee Banana Girl Pdf

I have been writing this book my entire life. From the shameful moments I hung my head in the toilet to the times I wouldn't eat for 8 days. It became normal for me to spend evenings alone bingeing on a loaf of bread and honey or a whole BBQ chicken. You will learn about my past of eating disorders, drug taking, and depression. By following the Raw till 4 Lifestyle I've finally found peace, balance, and purpose. I've overcome Irritable bowel syndrome, acne, hypothyroidism, depression and lost over 40lbs of excessive blubber. I used to jump from diet to diet and waste thousands of dollars following the terrible advice of so-called "health care professionals." I survived the starvation Bikini plans, the Paleo programme, the Keto Diet, metabolic typing, water fasting, juice feasting... you name it, I've tried it. These programmes only left me fatter and more depressed. Then I stumbled on the power of a raw food diet and fruit. Raw Till 4 combines a raw and cooked food approach to a vegan lifestyle. Over the years I woke to the realization that animals are not food and eating them is not only cruel but unnecessary and extremely unhealthy. As you will soon find out a plant-based diet is the healthiest diet for humans. This book gives you everything you need to succeed on this high carb vegan lifestyle: A 30-day meal planner, 4-week shopping list, exercise guide, over 55 color recipes, RT4 Diet Pyramid and so much more. It's time to become the healthiest, happiest, kick-ass person you know! BOOM! Time to go fruit yourself. ;-) By Freelee

Parents send their daughters to Our Lady of the Nile to be molded into respectable citizens and to escape the dangers of the outside world. Fifteen years prior to the 1994 Rwandan genocide, we watch as these girls try on their parents’ preconceptions and attitudes, transforming the lycée into a microcosm of the country’s mounting racial tensions and violence. In the midst of the interminable rainy season, everything unfolds behind the closed doors of the school: friendship, curiosity, fear, deceit, prejudice, and persecution. With masterful prose that is at once subtle and penetrating, Mukasonga captures a society hurtling towards horror.

M'Lady's Book of Household Secrets by The Hon. Sarah Macpherson Pdf

During the eighteenth century, ladies of high society kept handwritten notes on recipes, remedies, gardening and household advice in their personal House Books and it became fashionable to exchange their most successful tips with friends and neighbours. Very few of these fragile House Books have survived and this compilation celebrates two: one from Lady Talbot of Lacock Abbey and the other from Lady Louisa Conolly of Castletown House. In this collection you will find their herbal remedies for everything from coughs and colds to rickets, consumption and 'preventing smallpox', along with concoctions to ensure soft hands, improve the skin and 'remove inhibitions'. There are also tips on cleaning and polishing, the best ways in which a garden should be laid out and the roles each servant should be expected to perform. Finally there is also a selection of their favourite recipes, including Cinnamon Spinach, Slipcoat Cheese and Pitchcocked Eels. This charming compilation is full of fascinating information and useful tips and gives an insight into the lives of those living in the grand houses of the eighteenth century.

Banana by Dan Koeppel Pdf

A gripping biological detective story that uncovers the myth, mystery, and endangered fate of the world’s most humble fruit To most people, a banana is a banana: a simple yellow fruit. Americans eat more bananas than apples and oranges combined. In others parts of the world, bananas are what keep millions of people alive. But for all its ubiquity, the banana is surprisingly mysterious; nobody knows how bananas evolved or exactly where they originated. Rich cultural lore surrounds the fruit: In ancient translations of the Bible, the “apple” consumed by Eve is actually a banana (it makes sense, doesn’t it?). Entire Central American nations have been said to rise and fall over the banana. But the biggest mystery about the banana today is whether it will survive. A seedless fruit with a unique reproductive system, every banana is a genetic duplicate of the next, and therefore susceptible to the same blights. Today’s yellow banana, the Cavendish, is increasingly threatened by such a blight—and there’s no cure in sight. Banana combines a pop-science journey around the globe, a fascinating tale of an iconic American business enterprise, and a look into the alternately tragic and hilarious banana subculture (one does exist)—ultimately taking us to the high-tech labs where new bananas are literally being built in test tubes, in a race to save the world’s most beloved fruit.

The Lady of the Jewel Necklace & The Lady who Shows her Love by Harsha Pdf

King Harsha, who reigned over the kingdom of Kanauj from 606 to 647 CE, composed two Sanskrit plays about the mythical figures of King Udayana, his queen, Vásava·datta, and two of his co-wives. The plays abound in mistaken identities, both political and erotic. The characters masquerade as one another and, occasionally, as themselves, and each play refers simultaneously to itself and to the other.
