Mouthwatering Baked Pasta Recipes: Avoid your hungrily lunch and dinner, go through this! by David Kane (1 Review)    Price verified 3 hours ago

Pasta, pasta, and pasta! You can never get enough of this fantastic Italian dish. We all can't resist a nice serving of pasta, especially when it's baked and topped with stringy cheese. Each recipe shown and presented in this book is carefully picked and tasted, so you will be set with foolproof pasta cooking any time you crave this delicious dish. Developing the recipes for this cookbook had me thinking of two things - the quality of ingredients used in the recipe and either to cook or not the pasta before placing it in a casserole dish with the rest of the ingredients. I found that a much easier way is to dump everything in a bowl, stir well, and transfer everything to a baking dish. In this case, you need to increase the liquid ingredients like water, chicken, or vegetable stock, or even tomato sauce because the pasta will need more liquid to cook while it bakes. Cooking the pasta in its sauce will develop the best flavor and won't be blended to taste. I love everything related ...

A Commentary on the Book of Genesis, Chapter Three by James Thomas Lee Jr (1 Review)    Price verified 3 hours ago

One cannot study the opening chapters of the book of Genesis without getting into some very weighty issues. There is, of course, the first chapter that talks about Creation. But there are also other issues as well. For example, who wrote the book of Genesis? Not everyone will agree that it was Moses. Plus, when, if he did write it, did he actually write it? As will be seen in that part of this text, the higher critics have argued against Moses for a reason that will be shared at that time. But other critics have also argued against Moses, as being the author of the first five books of the scriptures, by speaking about something that is called the Documentary Hypothesis. Each of those matters will be discussed in naming the author of the book of Genesis and the date of authorship. Then, after settling the Moses-authorship question, the next topic to be addressed will be the Moses-content question. The conclusion from those discussions will be that the opening chapters of the book of ...

Has your physician or nutritionist recommended a no salt or low sodium diet for you? It can be one of the best ways to eat healthy, but you'll need recipes that help you identify good options.

Grover's Creek: A Christmas Fantasy by Bobby Underwood (23 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

Grover's Creek is a wonderfully nostalgic and unabashedly sentimental Christmas fantasy. Filled with Americana and imbued with the longing most of us feel for a better time in our shared history, there is something universal in Nick's story of disillusionment with the present woes of the world. Searching for something more than his life as a crime photographer for a major paper in a metropolitan city has given him, what he finds can only be described as a Christmas miracle. A town steeped in the past, no longer on any map, and barely remembered, may hold the key to his future if he can find the faith and courage to accept what most would find beyond belief. Gentle and old-fashioned, Grover's Creek is a story of love and miracles, for those who still believe both are possible.
