Candida Directory or Sweetness Preserved

Candida Directory: The Comprehensive Guidebook to Yeast-Free Living

Author: Helen Gustafson

Under normal conditions, Candida albicans lives quietly within our bodies, but under certain circumstances an overgrowth of this usually harmless yeast may occur, presenting a bewildering variety of debilitating symptoms. The Candida Directory is exactly that-a roadmap through the often-confusing landscape of information about this condition. Gourmet author, chef, and former sufferer, Helen Gustafson has joined forces with nutritional consultant, Maureen O'Shea and produced the most comprehensive yet easy-to-use manual for coping with Candida. There is a thorough explanation of each stage of the Candida diet, an invaluable symptom chart and checklist which allows you to accurately gauge your progress from stage to stage, as well as a product and resource guide. Best of all, there are sixty recipes specially created for each stage of the diet, including delicious contributions from Julia Child and Alice Waters.

Sweetness Preserved: The Story of the Crown Candy Kitchen

Author: John L Oldani

In Sweetness Preserved, folklorist Dr. John Oldani safeguards the history of St. Louis' best-known confectionery. Visit Crown Candy Kitchen today and enjoy the same delicious ice cream and candy that the Karandzieff family has been serving since 1913.

Coming from Macedonia in the great immigrant wave near the turn of the last century, the Karandzieffs have lived the "American Dream" through three generations. Oldani captures their wit and wisdom, and the charm of a still-popular shop that hasn't changed in nearly 100 years. With stories and recipes, from the Chocolate Easter Monkey to the Uncle Sam Sundae, Oldani fills us with longing—if not for an earlier era, then certainly for the finest sweets this side of the Mississippi.
