Tough Cookie by Diane Mott Davidson Pdf

A deliciously deadly novel by the New York Times bestselling author of Prime Cut. “A surprisingly tart and savory reading experience.”—The Washington Post Book World When caterer Goldy Schulz is offered a temporary stint hosting a cooking show for PBS, she jumps at the chance. After all, she could use the money—not to mention the great exposure. Plus taping the shows at Colorado's posh Killdeer Ski Resort will be fun. A little cooking, a little chitchat. What could go wrong? The answer: everything! When Goldy has to do one of her shows live for a PBS telethon, the broadcast is riddled with culinary catastrophes—from the Chesapeake Crab Cakes right down to the Ice-Capped Gingersnaps. But the deadliest dish of all comes after the cameras go off—and a baffling accident claims a life. Then a series of suspicious mishaps places Goldy's own life in jeopardy, and she knows she'd better whip up her own crime-solving recipe, and fast—before a deadly dash of danger ends her cooking career once and for all. . . .

One Tough Cookie by Delise Torres Pdf

A Latina Fleabag committed to her carefree single life meets a sexy new mechanic determined to break through her defenses, in this humorous and heartfelt foodie women’s fiction set at a cookie company. All cookies are made with love—even if twenty-seven-year-old Karina Cortés doesn’t believe in the concept. For her, a simple life with no attachments is a good life. And her life is indeed good—even with her biggest accomplishment being passing the GED exam. Karina is able to secure an incredible and well-paying job at Singular Cookies, Inc., a small family-owned cookie manufacturing plant in Fort Pierce, Florida. And although the founders of the company treat her like family, Karina insists she doesn’t need or want one. Not after her mother chose a man over her own daughter, pushing the young Karina to move out and make it on her own. And she couldn’t be happier with her single life, unlike her friends, whose lives revolve around men. Work and play collide when she meets the company’s hot new mechanic, Ian Feliciano, who stirs up feelings she tends to avoid. Karina knows she shouldn’t date him, but she’s strong; she’ll never turn pathetic like her friends or, especially, her mom. And with a looming plant inspection and trying to break up the CEO's new romance, Karina has enough to distract herself. As the inspection draws near and Karina battles her heart, she’ll have to decide whether to continue holding on to deeply ingrained beliefs that keep everyone at bay, or learn that love is not as dangerous as she fears and in the end, it is our history—our singular recipe—that shapes how we live.

Soft Skills for Tough Cookies by Genella Macintyre Pdf

Have you ever worked with a manager who is difficult to get along with? Do you ask yourself, “How in the world do I work with this type of person?” Are you a difficult manager? Have you been told your communication style is too extreme and affects your ability to lead others? If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, this book is for you! Tough Cookies are people with excellent technical skills, but weak interpersonal skills. They can be challenging to work with unless others understand them and know how to communicate with them. For both Tough Cookie managers and for people who work with them, Soft Skills for Tough Cookies provides ways to improve communication by adjusting behaviors, not personalities. Soft Skills for Tough Cookies describes different communication styles based on twelve cookie types. Perhaps you can imagine how a Ginger Snap, snaps? The author provides specific ways to improve interpersonal skills for managers while giving staff members ways to interact with them more effectively. As a Sugar Cookie who lives with an Oatmeal Raisin, trust me, it’s important!

Tough Cookies by Diane Rissner Pdf

My book begins with my early years growing up, describing a childhood filled with memories of excitement, happiness, warmth, and security. It continues with experiences of growing up with relatives, friends, and neighbors, and how this period of my life molded me into a person with standards, values, and work ethics. I move forward explaining how life is not always fair; bad things happen to good people. My story comes to life as I travel through time, sharing the good and bad relationships along the way, dealing with the consequences of my actions. My ride on this roller coaster explains all the emotions I feel as I leave one phase of life and enter into another. I explain how I dealt with my emotions on puppy love, true love, and the greatest of all: unconditional love. Decisions are made, new paths chosen. I experience marriage, childbirth, rearing children, divorce, and loneliness. My book ends summing up everything that I wish to accomplish, which would be to inspire my readers to take a journey into their own mind, compare their own life, and realize that tough times never last, but Tough Cookies do.

Food by Robert Palmatier Pdf

Each of the more than seven hundred entries in the dictionary contains a description of the historical background of each of the two types of language, literal and nonliteral, and provides an explanation for the relationship between them. Wherever possible, dates of first record in English are provided, along with the bibliographical sources of these dates; and all of the works that record those terms and expressions are given in coded form as listed in the Key to Works Cited. A Guide to Reading the Entries illustrates the typical form of an entry by analyzing an example from the dictionary that introduces five nonliteral expressions, cites thirteen bibliographical sources, and refers the reader to three other relevant entries by means of cross-references. Following the dictionary proper is a Classification of Terms According to Source, in which nearly three hundred nonliteral terms and expressions are listed under the more than four hundred literal categories from which they derive.

English, The Aussie Way by Lynne Maree Walsh Pdf

Written by a Sydney native, English, The Aussie Way: A Fun Guide to Australia’s Colourful Phrases, Words, and Expressions offers an amusing way for English or non-English speakers around the world to learn the colloquial phrases for which Australia is famous. This user-friendly reference provides words/phrases and meanings/synonyms by using an example sentence. Says the author, “For seven years I housed international students who were attending English language schools in Sydney, and I realised that although they had a good grasp of formal grammar, they struggled to understand not only colloquial English, but many of the commonly used phrasal verbs, which could not be found in a standard English/Spanish, French, etc., dictionary. It was then that I decided to start writing some of them down for future reference and it grew from there.”
