Book cover Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking 2 Not really worth it shine*** I am an experienced bread baker. A friend gave me this book and I used it for over a year. I gave this book 2 stars because I never had trouble with the recipes. They worked as advertised. But I stopped using it because it finally dawned on my dense noggin that this method really isn't any easier than what I used to do and the bread really isn't any better. I switched back to the old fashioned method. My recipe involves dumping the ingredients into my kitchen aid, mixing with a dough hook, toss it into the fridge to rise overnight. In the morning shape it into two loaves, toss them into pans, rise, and bake. Time consuming? Heres the Artisan bread in 5 version: dump the ingredients into the container, mix by hand, rise on the counter or in the fridge overnight. When ready, shape into two loaves (on separate days of course but I dutifully weighed every loaf I made and I never got more than 2, 1-1/2 lb loaves even though the recipe says it makes more), drop in pan (pans are optional but I prefer them for sandwiches), rise, and bake. Other than baking your 2 loaves separately rather than together, the method is the same stinkin thing! Beyond the method there are some differences though and here is my pros/cons of the ABin5: Pros: -A few less dishes to wash (at the time of mixing, at least) but all of them can go in the dishwasher so this really isn't that big of a deal. -Fresh bread on demand rather than day old bread. Nice but 99% of our bread consumption is for sandwiches and we really don't need warm, fresh bread for lunch boxes. -In theory you are mixing 4 (small) loaves at once so this should save you time. And it probably would if you have room in your fridge to store a double or triple batch of dough (and use it before it goes bad). I don't. Cons: -All but 1 recipe use quite a lot of white flour and that 1 recipe always turned out like a brick. My recipe is 100% whole wheat, light, and fluffy every time. -Refrigerated dough more than 2 or so days old just never turned out a particularly good loaf. So each loaf from each batch declines in quality. Take your pick: poor quality bread baked today or high quality bread baked 2 days ago. -Crispy crust. Now, I happen to like this quality but my kids hated it. There are recipes for softer sandwich bread but they are more involved than the master recipe and just as unhealthy. My recipe is healthy and soft without any more work than the ABin5 method. -Dough occupies prime shelf space in my fridge. -Every time I want to shape a loaf I have to drag out the dough, the bread board, and the flour. Get my hands all sticky, clean up the flour mess, and wash my board. When I do it the old fashioned way I have to do all that as well but I only do it once and the mess is over an done with, not recreated with each loaf. All in all I don't hate the book. I just didn't find it to be worth it. I like my day-old, old fashioned, light, fluffy, 100% whole wheat recipe far better. 0374333122 US
Zero Tolerance Hardcover – June 18, 2013 4 One of the greatest books I have ever read! Lacro*** The book that I read was “Zero Tolerance” by Claudia Mills. This book was published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux (BYR) (June 18, 2013). In my opinion this was a very good book. Kids good relate to this situation because mistakes happen to everyone. This book has a very good beginning and ending. The plot is very good and relatable. It is a very easy read and not to difficult to understand. I really enjoyed reading it and would recommend it to people from the ages of 9-13. I think that a boy or a girl would enjoy this book. This book took place at Long Wood Middle School. The book starts in the middle of the school year. Sierra Shepard is a 7th grader at Long Wood Middle School, straight A student and just the perfect kid everyone wants to be. She is a little shy, popular and never gets in trouble. She is the main character of the book. Luke Bishop is a troublemaker and not the kid you would want to become friends with. Or so Sierra thinks. Luke has a kind heart, but never reveals it to others, except for Sierra.Mr. Bessler is the principal at Longwood Middle School. He is a strict man and will not give in to anything that involves the Zero Tolerance rule. One day Sierra is in a rush to school to ask the principal a very important question. She accidently grabs her mother’s lunch box by mistake. When it is time for lunch Sierra and her friends are sitting around the table about to open up their lunch boxes. When Sierra opens up her lunch box she sees a knife and realizes that it is her mother’s lunch box. Sierra turns in the knife to the lunch lady thinking it is the right thing to do. Sierra is sent to the principal's office and is sent to an in school suspension. That is where she meets Luke. Luke and her became very good friends. Mr. Bessler thinks that Sierra should be expelled but everyone thinks that it is not a good idea. As I said earlier I would recommend this book from the ages of 9-13. I would give this book a 9 out of 10 rating. I really loved this book and would definitely read this book again! I think that anyone would really love this book no matter if you are a boy or girl. this books leaves you with satisfaction. It leaves you wondering the whole whether or not Sierra will be expelled or be able to go back to school. What do you think will happen to Sierra? Will she be expelled or be able to come back to school? Do you think Sierra did the right thing, by turning it into the lunch lady or do you think she should have just kept it in her lunch box? Read “Zero Tolerance” by Claudia Mills to find out! 1481157493 US
From Pigtails to Chin Hairs: A Memoir & More Paperback – November 6, 2013 5 Friendship's Sweet Embrace Theresa *** With her unique blend of humor and charm, Becky Povich has crafted a memoir that makes us feel as if she is sitting right across from us, sharing secrets and a dish of hand-cranked ice cream. Becky takes us on a sentimental journey back to the days of her childhood, a time filled with trips to grandma’s house, starry nights, red-barn lunch boxes, and Jergens lotion. Later, we are right beside her as she encounters some of life’s difficult moments as well, from her bumpy relationship with her sometimes distant mother and the loss of her estranged father whom she had once so clearly adored, to an abusive first marriage and the isolation she felt as a military wife. Still later, we delight in her triumph as she finds true love with her second husband, sees her son off to college, and in a beautiful vignette titled simply “Tara’s story,” helps a Hurricane Katrina victim redefine hearth and home. Reading FROM PIGTAILS TO CHIN HAIRS is like being wrapped in friendship’s sweet embrace. Every word is an invitation to fall heart-first into its tender pages, and as with the best of friendships, to partake in the ups and downs of a life well lived, which ultimately helps us derive a deeper understanding of our own.

On The Go, Lunch Box Ready Banana Case (Without Carabiner) Yellow Small 5 You'll be the talk of the lunchroom one way or another RK Tr*** One time I was in a rush for the airport so I put my banana in the outside pouch of my checked luggage. Do you know how long it took to get the smell and stain out of that bag? Me either, because my wife cleaned it. And to make sure my wife never has to go through that again, I bought her one of these: a banana saver. And I'm sure she would say it's the most practical gift she's gotten in years if we were on speaking terms. I chose this one at random after reading more about plastic fruit protectors than any human ever should. Are you in this banana boat, too? (Good one, me.) End your search here and get this one so that when your pal Jamie calls after supper and asks, "Are you coming out to play lawn darts or what?" you don't have to say, "Oh, hey, sorry, I'd love to but I can't because I'm looking at BANANA CASES on Amazon for a few hours tonight." This case meets your needs because: • There is an opening for the banana stem to stick out and the inside diameter is enough that every banana seems to fit. • It has a reliable, sturdy clip so the case never pops open. • Children are able to easily open it and eat the banana (even if you don't want them to). • It gets used five days a week and has held up perfectly for months. The only thing -- and this likely happens with every banana saver -- is that when it's in my wife's purse and someone sees it, they often think it's a "personal massager." That could be a bit embarrassing. But you know what? Would you rather be known as the person who carries around a pleasure device OR have smushed-up banana all over your keys, wallet, phone and actual pleasure device? I thought so. So, I can reliably attest that this banana saver is worth a purchase if (a) you eat bananas, (b) you get a kick out of being the focus of sizzling lunchroom gossip, and (c) your wife threatens to give your banana a split if you bring home another lunch bag looking like an elephant stomped the bejesus out of the unprotected fruit inside. Yip-yippee-yooo! B003FO2B5U US

Fit & Fresh Kids' Reusable Lunch Box Container Set with Built-In Ice Packs, 14-Piece Healthy Lunch and Snack Kit, BPA-Free Mi 1 Deceptive Descriptions D. Jen*** Very disappointed. The key point Fit & Fresh makes about their products is that they keep food cold with their included Ice Packs. In their pictures, all of the open containers with lids flipped over show ice packs inside. BEWARE and read the fine print. This kit includes 6 containers but ONLY 2 ice packs. Yes shame on me for not reading the fine print. I see others have complained of this issue on this and other Fit & Fresh products. They need to come clean and describe their products clearly. They also need to make it easy to find and order more ice packs. B0057PDZJ6 US

Wilton Edible Candy Eyeball Sprinkles, Small Edible Googly Eyes for Decorating Cupcakes, Cookies & Halloween Treats, Black and White, 0.88 oz 4 Cute but don't hold up when refrigerated Amazon C*** I've used these to amuse my kids numerous times. Today I packed some eyeballs in their Yumboxes, using a bit of chocolate to attach the eyes to the top of their PB sandwiches and on some blueberries. Very cute! The closed lunch boxes went in the fridge and I checked them about 2.5-3 hours later right before my kids went off to school. The black part of the eyeball had started leaching out into the white. :( I'm guessing it was the humidity that affected them. My recommendation if you want to use these is to either put them on right before you serve them, or use them on items that do not need to be refrigerated. 4 stars for general cuteness and because they've performed well under other conditions.

Bentgo Classic 5 Obsessed with my Bentgo Corrie L*** I'm absolutely obsessed with my Bentgo. I had a more traditional style bento box a while ago which worked well for me and was the correct size for my calorie requirements, but it was a pain to load up each day because of the size. You'd have to make traditional style bento meals, which was a pain for me being I like to pack leftovers for lunch the following day. The best way I can describe the Bentgo is it's like an American sized bento box. It's larger that the traditional ones, but smaller than a traditional American lunch box which for me makes it perfect. I can easily slip it in my purse (which is a little larger) to bring it to work. I also love that it has built in flatware. I used to constantly loose my kitchen silverware and the included flatware with the Bentgo has saved many of my forks and spoons from getting lost. Every night I enjoy packing my leftovers for lunch along with some snacks to set me up for the next day. I'm healthier and happier, plus I've been saving a lot of money on take out. My Bentgo worked out so well I purchased a second one for my husband. I highly recommend the Bentgo if you are looking for an economical, well designed (and cute!), lunch box solution. B00CHOLNZS US

Premium Bento Lunch Box 3 Loved this until it broke Bo*** This was my very favorite lunch box for my kids- it fits everything very compactly and both the 8 and 10 year old can open and close it all easily. They loved it too- until after 6 months of use the plastic around the edge of one of the containers just broke apart when my son opened his lunch. Literally 2 shards of hard plastic just chunked off the lid- rendering it useless. I’m so sad! I really did love this product until this happened. My daughters seems fine still. Not sure if it was a defect with the blue/black box? My daughters is the white box and is in good condition. I’m hoping bentoheaven will make this right and send a new lower lid. B00X5J6ZS4 US
