Book Description
An intimate collection of Jewish family recipes spanning three generations. Unlike many in her generation, Doris Schechter was lucky enough to grow up knowing one of her grandparents. Polish by birth, Leah Goldstein-or Oma, as Doris called her-was a capable, nononsense woman and an amazing cook. Through times of great upheaval, fleeing Vienna for Italy, before eventually coming to America, Oma's table was always plentiful, with delicious home-cooked meals that brought together Viennese, Italian, and American flavors. Now a successful restaurateur, Doris Schechter pays homage to her brave grandmother and the food traditions she fostered with this moving and appealing collection of recipes and remembrances. With dishes including classic favorites (matzo balls, tzimmes, borscht, and a beloved spread known as liptauer) as well as more contemporary dishes, desserts, and tasting menus, At Oma's Table is a book to savor, to share with family, and to cook from-one delicious family meal at a time.

Book Description
What if the friend you grew up with had just walked off into the forest and you were told by an old woman that he would not be seen again for four generations? What if a Judge sent armed men to hunt for him when you couldn’t find him? This same Judge would stop at nothing to get the missing deed to the valley and the water that runs through it and he knows your friend has it. It is also the story of a young boy and his secret friendship with one who is at odds with his family. And of a father who is unsure of his future or his past; caught in a tailspin of emotion, deeply troubled by what is expected and what is right. And the love he traded to become the future head of the Appleton fortune. Set in the old west in the town of Goose Creek, A Thousand Sleeps follows two friends, Tom and Al, who embark on a perilous journey that will take them into their old age. But they won’t be alone. The Appleton’s, a powerful and ruthless family driven by greed and violence, will join them along with an unsuspecting young writer for the local paper who digs up a dangerous past that might have been better left buried. In the end it is the story of rebirth, a discovery of self. Of old friends reunited, lost love rekindled. A father and son finding each other. And forbidden friendships embraced by all.
