Time for Pie...or Ice Cream...or a New Book!
It’s mid-July and time for pie. Or ice cream. Art of the pie: a practical guide to homemade crusts, fillings, and life and Food52 ice cream & friends: 60 recipes & riffs for sorbets, sandwiches, no-churn ice creams and more can provide recipes and inspiration. The resulting pounds are up to you. If the thought of all that sugar makes you weak with longing, you may want to read Biology of desire: why addiction is not a disease.
Hide the livestock and wake the neighbors – the Vikings are coming! Sorry, wrong century, but if you’re interested in Viking history, why not try Northmen: the Viking saga, AD 793-1241 or The Norse myths: a guide to the gods and heroes or Beyond the Northlands: Viking voyages and the Old Norse sagas?
Have you ever worried that you’re going to confess to a crime, even though you’re not guilty? If so, you may want to brush up on How the police generate false confessions: an inside look at the interrogation room. Things didn’t go so well for a certain “I’m not guilty” president, but maybe Richard Nixon: the life can shed some light on history.
If you’ve ever opened the office refrigerator only to find that someone has helped themselves to the leftovers you planned to eat for lunch, you could spike future lunches with habaneros, or you could take a more laid-back approach and read Why they do it: inside the mind of the white-collar criminal.
Speak quietly and carry a large golf club. Tiger Woods has something to say and it’s not “I most certainly was not on tranquilizers, officer!” in The 1997 Masters: my story.
You probably ask yourself every month when the bills are due, “Are these numbers even real?” Well, the book entitled Are numbers real?: the uncanny relationship of mathematics and the physical world might help shed some numerical light on the situation.
Do you drive on autopilot? Do you remember what you had for dinner last Wednesday? Do you wonder why a blog is asking you these nosy questions? Your brain has many secrets and you might find some answers in Idiot brain: what your head is really up to.
