Book Description
Michael Pollan's How to Change Your Mind meets Christopher McDougall's Born to Run in this immersive, investigative look at the hidden culture of cannabis use among elite athletes (as well as weekend warriors)--and the surprising emerging science behind the elusive, exhilarating "runner's high" they all seek. Pot makes exercise fun. The link between performance enhancement and cannabis has been an open secret for many years, so much so that with the wide-sweeping national legalization of cannabis, combining weed and working out has become the hottest new wellness trend. Why, then, is there still a skewed perception around this leafy substance that it only produces the lazy, red-eyed stoner laid out on a couch somewhere, munching on junk food? In fact, scientists have conducted extensive research that uncovers the power of the "runner's high"--the true holy grail of aerobic activity that was long believed to be caused by endorphins. In an extraordinary reversal, scientists believe marijuana may actually be the key to getting more Americans off their phones and on to their feet. In Runner's High, seasoned investigative journalist Josiah Hesse takes readers on a journey through the secret world of stoned athletes, describing astounding, cannabis-inspired physical and mental transformations, just like he experienced. From the economics of the $20 billion CBD market to the inherent inequalities in the enforcement of marijuana prohibition; from the mind-body connection behind the "runner's high" to the best way to make your own cannabis-infused power bars; Runner's High takes this groundbreaking science out of the lab and onto the trail, court, field, and pitch, fundamentally changing the way we think about exercise, recovery, and cannabis.

Book Description
The sumptuous debut cookbook from celebrated baker, activist, and pastry “it girl” Natasha Pickowicz * Named a Best New Cookbook of Spring 2023 by Food & Wine, Eater, and more Natasha Pickowicz is a creative force in the world of baking. Her pastries are uniquely delicious and surprising. She’s picked up three James Beard Award nominations for her time as a professional pastry chef. Her buzzy bake sales for Planned Parenthood and other nonprofits have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars. Now she shares her recipes and baking know-how in a debut cookbook brimming with the energy, passion, joy, knowledge, and spirit of generosity that define her work. The recipes are fresh and uncomplicated, drawing on the author’s Chinese and Californian heritage. She pairs nectarine and miso in a tarte tatin and makes a layer cake with olive oil, mascarpone, and fennel. Black cardamom gets tucked into pecan sticky buns, and galettes go savory with kabocha squash. Brown butter is the secret to irresistible buckwheat chocolate chunk cookies. And she’s a born teacher. Of course pastry requires a real focus on detail and technique, but the author is here at every step with invaluable tips: underbeat meringue; boil your plum stones to extract even more plum flavor; look for “first-press” yuzu juice; for the flakiest pie dough, first freeze your butter, then use a grater to get perfect shreds. More Than Cake means baking to bring people together. It calls on you to prioritize pleasure. As the author writes, “Dessert is beyond simple calories and nutrition. . . . It spreads delight in a way that no other kind of dish can. This is something I think people really need—it’s not optional.” It’s a philosophy to live by.

Book Description
On the darkest day in history a beaten, discredited, rabbi called Jesus showed us what love was all about and as He died the death of a common criminal claimed ultimate victory over sin, death, and hell. In seven statements, most of them not addressed to anyone on earth, He teaches us how to live with peace, joy, and satisfaction. Hear Him speak anew about: Real forgiveness, "Father, forgive..." Hope that transcends even death, "Today you will be with me..." Serving with real grace, "Woman, Behold your son..." Full comfort for every crisis, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken..." A real, living Savior, "I thirst" Trust that never fails, "Father, into thy hands..." Victory that is unbelievable but true, "It is finished" In Seven Words of Love, Pastor Ernie Shipe takes you up Golgotha's hill so that you can see, hear, even smell the crackling emotion of the hate of the temple leaders, the passion of the crowd, the fear and heartbreak of the five pathetic figures standing near the foot of the center cross, the bitter indifference of the soldiers, and the excruciating agony of the three dying men.
