My March Recipe Challenge - You Up For It?
So statistics show, people start their diets in January, but have already given up by February! March is National Nutrition Month making this the perfect time to think about a healthier lifestyle; however, this time let's make it a permanent lifestyle change! My focus is on providing a healthier lifestyle for the busy person—bringing back cooking. My challenge to you is to start taking back your health one recipe at a time. It doesn't have to be a kitchen overhaul. Try one new recipe a week, and a good place to start is with these – I have handpicked some new flavorful recipes, sure to jump-start your nutrition and get you out of your cooking rut!
Kale Salad with Fruity Vinaigrette: Looking for the perfect recipe to try that 'new-to-you' kale?
- You will love the Fruity Vinaigrette for it's perfect blend of sweet and savory flavors.
- Did you know that 1 cup of kale provides a whopping 5 grams of fiber, 15% of your daily calcium recommended intake, 180% of vitamin A, and 200% of vitamin C!
- For a short-cut, look for bags of pre-cut, pre-washed kale in your grocery's produce.
- Not sure about kale, try a combination of kale, spinach and lettuce.
Chicken Scallopini: Easy comfort food with loads of flavor.
- You can buy thin chicken breasts in the grocery instead of pounding them.
- Keep these ingredients on hand for a quick, impressive family meal in minutes.
- This entrée dish makes a great diabetic-friendly dinner, low in sodium & saturated fat.
Strawberry Bread: Such yummy spring berry bread.
- Makes excellent breakfast, dessert or snack
- Quick breads freeze well, so make plenty with your seasonal fruit, wrap in plastic wrap and store in freezer zip top bags. Freezes 4 – 6 months.
- Any red fruit juice may be used for cranberry-strawberry juice.

|2 nights
Are you the kind of person who just feels better when you can look at the water? The kind of person who feels calm just thinking about the soft waves slapping the sand, and the distant sound of seagulls?
Don't just think about a great beach getaway—live it. And live it in the comfortable elegance of a fully restored Victorian in one of Galveston's oldest neighborhoods.
The Gulf Lady in Galveston is located just 1 block from the beach—you can see the sparkling Gulf from the home's upstairs porches. Just as lovely is the view of the spectacular Galvez Hotel, located just two blocks away. Walk to the hotel's famous brunch, or schedule some alone time in their newly opened spa.
Despite its great location, there are lots of reasons to never leave the house. The Gulf Lady is a turn-of-the-century charmer with lots of period details. Pocket doors, hardwood floors, clawfoot tubs, and gorgeous stained glass are just some of the surprises you'll find in this lovely home. The welcoming entranceway is painted in the same shade as the Galvez's lobby area—a wonderful nod to the home's close proximity.
But this house isn't stuck in the past by any means. You'll love the modern updates—including a chef's kitchen, central air conditioning, free wifi, and cable televisions. You'll feel comfortable whether you're relaxing in the family room, visiting on one of the home's multiple porches, or lounging in front of the luxurious pool.
The house sleeps 8, with three bedrooms upstairs and a queen-sized flexsteel sofa bed in the living room (there is a full bathroom downstairs for any guests with mobility issues). In addition, we provide a pack-and-play for our younger guests.
We are pet- and smoke-free, to accommodate our guests with allergies.
Ready to visit? Call us today to reserve your next vacation.
Keywords: Victorian, Historical, Pool, Gulf View, Water View
We had a wonderful time in your house. It was very spacious. The pool was very nice and peaceful. We had a nice time in Galveston.
My friends and I just left this house after staying for Mardi Gras, and after seeing the last review, I felt compelled to write. I'm not sure what that reviewer was talking about. The house is nice, as is the pool. It is true, it is an older home, and it is not decked out with flat screen televisions or the latest IKEA furniture (thank goodness, btw). But it is charming, as is the neighborhood--and it was very reasonably priced!! (We had 8 people in total, and thought it was a huge value--especially during Mardi Gras). It has a very nice kitchen, which was perfect for us--we could eat in when we wanted to, and go out when it suited us. The location absolutely CAN NOT BE BEAT. You can see the Gulf from the deck--and it's on the same street as the beautiful Galvez. It's also right across from the Pleasure Pier--it would be perfect for families with kids. (In fact, several of us are planning to come back in July!!) We did have to call the owner as we had problems with the keybox (totally our fault--we forgot to bring the combination with us. The owner actually uses our address as the combo--but we didn't remember that!) She was charming too, and has lived in Galveston for decades. She's a spitfire--and she knows all the best restaurants in town, as well as a couple to avoid. We can only assume the last reviewer does not like people, the beach, or vacations in general--because we had a great time, and are definitely planning to come back!!
My husband and I spent the weekend with 2 other couples and had a fantastic time. The house is convenient to the beach and the Pleasure Pier. We sat on the 2nd story deck every night looking out to the Gulf and enjoying the breezes. And the kids loved the pool! The only problem we had was getting them out of the water so we could go and do something else! We will definitely be back!!!
The house is not completely as avertised. To begin with, the neighborhood is not the best. Eventhough it is very close to the beach, the area is less than desirable. Thugs and other undesirables are constantly walking around the area. The police responded to several houses next door multiple times during our stay. Just because alot of houses in the area are old, that doesn't make it a "historical neighborhood". The house its self isn't exactly what the pictures portray. The house needs some major interior and exterior work done to it. The upstairs master bedroom is very hot. There are huge gaps in the windows that let all of the A/C out. It rained one night and rain water poured inside. The house also needs some updating (applicances, tv's, decor). The handyman lives across the street, and I would say he is less than handy. He would come over every morning and sorta skim the pool. He was supposed to set the trash out on the curb, but didn't. So if you don't mind a stranger in the back yard every now and again (unannounced as well). The owner actually lives in the house and stays at another house in Galveston while it is rented (this is what the handy man told me). So, the house is full of her personal belongings, papers, and family pictures everywhere. I really don't want to see someone else's personal stuff while at a rental. I called the owner concerning an issue we had with the house, and she was very rude and told me to call the handy man. But her number was the one provided by the property manager. There are sticky notes attached to everything in the house, and one happens to have the handy man's telephone number. She also called me and said "she happened to drive by" and asked us to do this and that. After that, we felt like she was checking up on us and made us feel very uncomfortable. We also had an issue with ants in the master bedroom. We had to go buy bug spray and spray the house down (ants are all around the pool area too). The pool cleaner was supposed to come once a week, but he never showed up either. The owner makes you wash, dry and put up all of the towels before you leave. She asks that you wash the bed sheets too, but not mandatory. I thought that is what cleaning services do. All in all - after our stay, I feel as if we over paid by double of what the house should rent for. The only positives are the close proximity to the beach and the backyard pool.
I have an annual girls trip and this year we chose Galveston. We stayed at Gulf View Victorian with Private Pool house. I love the house, but I am a sucker for Victorian style homes. The house and the pool were excelent. The accomodations were just as if we were home. The area is very quiet and close to the sea wall and to Pleasure Pier. I would recomend this for a girls getaway or even a family .

Talk:Collegiate Gothic
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|WikiProject Architecture
Before I start a slash and burn[edit]
Sherman's March across Georgia campaign here I thought I'd toss my premise out. My thought is that all Gothic Revival located on college campuses is not, by definition Collegiate Gothic . Some of it, stuff by Cram for example, is just Gothic Revival on a college campus. I've just been notified by my social director that I am out of here, so I am - but think about it. Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 19:06, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
- It's an interesting question: What are the defining characteristics of Collegiate Gothic that distinguish it within the broader Gothic Revival style? I'm no expert in this matter, but my guess would be that Collegiate Gothic tends to be built in imitation of the medieval buildings at Oxford and Cambridge, and thus is more English than Continental in provenance and favors Perpendicular details and proportions over Early English and Decorated Gothic. Does this jibe with your understanding? 126.96.36.199 (talk) 19:19, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Expert review of Rastro street market
The Rastro is a real institution and has been going for more than 400 years. The Ribera de Curtidores is the main drag, starting from Plaza de Cascorro, but the surrounding streets, particularly around Plaza General Vara de Rey, are more interesting. The streets are lined with stalls and shops selling clothes, bags, rusty old keys, sunglasses, furniture, shoes, books, kitchen stuff, paintings and all manner of old junk. The name Rastro comes from the fact that there used to be an abattoir here, where animals were slaughtered in the early hours of the morning, then distributed to the butchers' shops around the city. Rastro means 'trail', and refers to the trail of blood that used to be left down the street. There are lots of little bars for tapas and beers along the way, and it is customary to go for a long, late lunch afterwards.

Michael W. Toffel; Aldo Sesia
Price: $4.27
Genzyme Corporation is in the midst of planning its new corporate headquarters, which incorporates many innovative green building features.

Five additional green building features are described, and students are asked to analyze and recommend which, if any, of these features to pursue based on their cost, likelihood of earning LEED credits, and their influence on the building's environmental performance.
Learning objective:
Exposes students to voluntary environmental management standards, industry self-regulation, and green building practices. Students explore the benefits and challenges in designing process standards, and discover important tradeoffs between adhering to environmental management standards, costs, and environmental performance.

Recent Trinidad & Tobago Reviews
The stay at Patrick/Shirley apartment
I spent 13 nights at the nice, secured, clean, apartment and had a wonderful time in Trinidad. The place was as described in the listing regarding location (Chaguana), layout, amenities (internet, appliances etc). The owner was next door neighbor and was very accommodating and was always at our service. I would highly recommend this property to a friend and relatives. I enjoyed the Caroni Bird Sanctuary, Maracas Beach, San Fernanda Hill etc.
Go for It - with confidence !!
Clean, neat, no frills and an ideal size for 2 sharing. Timely pick-up from airport by good Manager Dave, with very helpful stop-off at local supermarket to get initial basic provisions before arriving at house for first time. House has a comprehensive file of advice on virtually everything of interest to holiday-makers (e.g. detailed ratings for local restaurants and all main beaches on the island, accurate ratings for off-shore dives etc. etc.) which proved to be a very useful supplement to Dave's initial advice. Castara is probably the best place/area to stay on the island - locals are extremely friendly and nearby beaches (e.g. Englishman's Bay, Parlatuvier and Little Bay in Castara itself) are arguably the best and/or most easily accessed on the island. Eating out is very affordable/good value for money. Morning and late afternoon views from the house are to die for, made even better by the frequent sightings of 3 types of hummingbird - one pair of which are nesting in clear view above/left of the main deck. Surrounding gardens are well maintained and it is well worth taking at least one walk up the local access road (Miss Mills Trail) for easy access to see wild-life in the lower forest area. Use of hire car is practically essential for the whole of the stay.
This house is literally in the best neighborhood with the best views!! We were part of The Pierre Family reunion and this accommodation was home away from home. Very Clean and very very Cool. The pictures were accurate and the Customer Service was above and beyond expectation! Allyson, Thank you for your time and consideration! Her guidance was greatly appreciated! Her efforts to make us comfortable were tireless. I am suggesting this home to all family and friends for their stay in Trinidad! We could walk to the grocery store or to the waterfront for fresh blue crab and shrimp. Check out cupcakes at Dolce Desserts, SourSop ice cream from beautiful lady at the gas station in Muenster Point, Doubles at the truck/Cross Center Crossing, fresh fish-crab-shrimp at waterfront near General hospital, La Brea Pitch Lake/one of the wonders of the world, ferry to Tobago, Emancipation Day Parade in Port of Spain, strolling the neighborhood and picking mangoes & sugar cane, making limeade with limes in the backyard, local "fire water" to relax--lol, the sound of exotic birds waking you up.....THERE IS NO END TO THE GREAT EXPERIENCES AT THIS PROPERTY. We even hosted a brunch for our family and they all enjoyed the beautiful view of the sunset over the Gulf of Paria. The sunsets!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rae, your home made our stay exceptionally enjoyable. Knowing at the end of the event filled days, we were going home to a clean, cool and quiet house made our stay even more special. Thank you for your hospitality!!

Laboratory Members
Patterson labs rooftop
Lab outing at Salt Lick.
Thomas Juenger | Principal Investigator
Tom Juenger is a Professor in the Department of Integrative Biology at the University of Texas at Austin. He is a member of the Institute for Cellular and Molecular Biology and the Center for Computation Biology and Bioinformatics.
Tierney Logan | Lab Technician
I joined the Juenger lab in the fall of 2004, with a background primarily in genotyping human cancer genes at the Stanford Genome Technology Center. I also had experience in the field of horticulture before I received my B.S. in Molecular Biology. Current work includes several projects involving characterization of genetic variation in Arabidopsis, Ipomopsis and Panicum. I am also interested in the fast-paced development of sequencing technologies and high-throughput methods.
Scott Schwartz | Research Associate
After completing a PhD in a Bayesian oriented statistics program, Scott spent a year in a cancer nutrition lab working with genomic data. From there he spent two years working in a next generation sequencing core where he analyzed RAD-Seq mapping population data, genomic bulk segregation data, and RNA-seq experiment data. Scott has joined the Juenger lab to bring his bioinformatics and statistics expertise to bear on eQTL and bisulfite sequencing efforts in the lab.
John Lovell | Post-doctoral Researcher
The evolutionary fate of species rests entirely on their potential to adapt to novel or stressful environmental conditions. While a small minority of lineages have experienced little morphological evolution over long evolutionary timescales, the vast majority of taxonomic groups have undergone recurrent events of niche diversification, speciation and extinction- processes all driven by the relative capability of populations to adapt. My research program addresses this foundational question in evolutionary biology, namely, what factors affect the adaptive potential of populations? Using vascular plant systems and population genomic, physiological, and ecological tools, my research program empirically assesses the evolutionary causes and ecological consequences of adaptive constraint.
In the Juenger lab, I am utilizing the developing model system, Panicum hallii and its close relative, switchgrass (P. virgatum) to determine the physiological affect of deleterious mutation accumulation and the benefits of concealing this genetic load through crossing. Understanding these processes, which lead to heterosis, may improve the agronomic utility of hybrid breeding in switchgrass.
Eugene Shakirov | Research Associate
Because of its superior biological and genomic resources, Arabidopsis offers a unique opportunity for the analysis of natural variation. There is now an explosion of Arabidopsis natural variation studies, fueled by the availability of hundreds of accessions (natural genetically diverse populations) collected from geographically distinct locations. Because Arabidopsis is self-pollinating, these accessions are inbred and mostly homozygous, greatly facilitating genetic analysis and mapping. Significant natural variation in Arabidopsis was reported for every phenotypic trait investigated.
My research interests focus on the role of natural variation in three major aspects of plant biology: drought tolerance, phosphorus metabolism and telomere biology. Better understanding of genetic differences underlying these biological processes may provide important insights into the molecular basis for the observed variation in plant responses to abiotic stress and shed additional light on conservation of physiological pathways between various plants and other eukaryotes.
Xiaoyu Weng | Post-doctoral Researcher
Detecting and responding to environmental perturbations is one of the most important distinguishing features of plants. I am interested in how plants integrate the dynamic environmental inputs into developmental issues, such as architecture regulation, phase transition and stress response. During my Ph.D, I worked on a pleiotropic QTL gene Ghd7 which has large effects on heading date and yield potential in rice, under the supervision of Prof. Qifa Zhang, Huazhong Agricultural University.
In May 2014, I joined Prof. Juenger's lab to investigate grass developmental genetics. My research focuses on QTL mapping and GWAS in the C4 grass species Panicum hallii, which is an emerging model system that shares a close evolutionary relationship to the biofuel crop switchgrass. I am also combining genetics, biochemistry and molecule biology approaches to study the molecular mechanisms of how plants perceive and respond to multiple environmental signals in both Panicum hallii and Arabidopsis. The ultimate goal of my project is to better understand the growth of switchgrass and provide avenues for improving biomass yield and stress tolerance for use as a bioenergy crop.
Brandon Campitelli | Post-doctoral Researcher & Research Educator
My research interests broadly center around understanding the impacts of the abiotic and biotic environment on plant function, growth/yield, physiology and reproduction. More specifically, in the Juenger lab my research focuses on how abiotic stress affects various fitness components of naturally occurring genetic variants of plants, while subjected to typical biotic challenges such as competition, herbivory and pathogen infection. I carry out my research in a several plant systems including the candidate bioenergy crop Panicum virgatum (Swichgrass) and its closely related genetic model P. hallii, as well as the model species Arabidopsis thaliana.
After finishing my PhD, I spent a year working at University of Toronto to develop and teach undergraduate lab courses. Currently, as a Research Educator at University of Texas, I am the primary instructor of a research-based course called Biology of Biofuels that is part of the Freshmen Research Initiative, where I train students broadly in plant biological research, and supervise/manage the independent projects they eventually carry out.
Elizabeth Milano | Graduate Student
I am involved in two projects in the Juenger lab. My dissertation research focuses on floral variation and population divergence in two subspecies of I. aggregata that occur on the Front Range of the Colorado Rockies. As a member of the Panicum group, I have been involved in resolving the phylogenetic relationship between P. hallii var. hallii and var. filipes.
Juan Diego Palacio-Mejía | Graduate Student
My main research interest is focused on the knowledge and use of the agobiodiversity, using biotechnology techniques for the improvement of crops. In that sense I am interested in being a bridge between the basic research on model organisms such as Arabidopsis and the application of such research to the development of agriculture production. Currently I am part of the project focused on the physiological genomics of swichtgrass to use it in biofuel production in a global warming context.
Albina Khasanova | Graduate Student
My research interests are to understand how environmental factors, such as water and nutrient availability, can impact plant physiological and ecological processes. With the Juenger laboratory, I have been involved in projects that investigate the physiology and genomics of switchgrass (Panicum Virgatum) under varied precipitation regimes ranging from extreme drought to abundant rainfall. Specifically, I have been focusing on how abiotic and biotic factors impact soil respiration, nutrient resorption and nutrient storage, physiology and growth. My upcoming thesis research will focus on night-time physiological processes and root level dynamics.

Think I like it!
glenda_alApril 21, 2013
Think I like it. Vera Bradley purse I bought today.
Handles are a little too long.
I'll eye it a day or so before I definitely decide.
Not a purse person, are you?
So when I get one it's for the season. I don't like to change purses except when it's dressup or doesn't go . I'm mainly a casual person.
Sorry this image is no longer available.

The pattern of your new purse is the same as the free Vera Bradley cosmetic bag I received this spring from the hospital when I got my mammogram. The pattern I believe is called, "Ribbons". I like it.

Super gelegen. Sehr zentral und trotzdem ruhig. Louvre, centre pompidou, notre dame etc. zu Fuß erreichbar. Angenehme Bistros und Restaurants in der Nähe.
Ein richtiges Bett mit guter Matratze und kein Klappsofa. Transportables 3G-wifi. Due Küche ist mini, aber für Frühstück und einen kleinen Imbiss völlig ausreichend.
Axel haben wir nicht getroffen, war aber Dank Schlüsselbox kein Problem
Nice Apartment, great neighborhood with lots of restaurants and bars, perfect location and easy communication with Axel - we loved staying there!
Superbe appartement, comme sur les photos! Très bien situé et calme! Je reviendrai sans soucis!
Axel a été très disponible pour mes questions et tout était très bien organisé!
My friend and I stayed 4 nights in Axel's apartment. Both of us haven't been to Paris in a long time so we had quit a busy schedule visiting all the sights. The apartment had the perfect location to do that all on foot, so we almost didn't need to use the metro at all! Before arrival we already were in good contact with Axel and also during our stay he really gave us the feeling that we could ask anything. He even offered the extra service of a WiFi hotspot for us to use. Which turned out to be quite great because we could immediately use this small device to find out what had happened in Paris. We were literally 2 blocks from Charlie Hebdo headquarters and as tons of police rushed past us, we could go online and find out exactly what was going on and follow the news. So again, thanks for this additional service.
The apartment itself is small, but still big enough for us two. It was well equipped, clean and the bed was comfortable. The kitchen is very small, but fine to make a simple breakfast before heading out! Supermarket, subway station, parking, Starbucks, restaurants, everything is around the corner. We have enjoyed our stay very much!
Axel was a great host and easy to contact - never met him but we were given clear instructions on how to enter the flat. A small place, very clean and just what we needed for a short vacation in Paris! The building is in the perfect central location - we walked everywhere - and though the entrance is on a lively street, you would never know it inside the apartment. It's very quiet - we loved staying here and would do so again!
Amazing place and amazing location. Everything is at most a 20 min walk away or a few stops by metro.
Axel's studio is in the perfect location!
Top of the very list of things to like about the place is where it is. We walked everywhere - Notre Dame is so close we walked past it almost every day and we managed to walk to the Eiffel Tower and Arc De Triomphe without too much fuss. The surrounding streets are full of lovely and affordable cafes and restaurants as well as a supermarket which is well equipped. As well as the great spot, the apartment is very quiet despite being on a busy street - the only noises we heard at all were occasional sirens. We also enjoyed making dinner in the kitchen, although it was small it was kitted out well with utensils and modernly finished. The same goes for the rest of the apartment with clean, modern interior and a good sized space throughout.
It is a little climb to get up the three flights of stairs but that's to be expected in Paris and it was fine. The only issue we had at all was that the air was humid, with very slight damp after a few wet days and we found it hard to dry our clothes.
Axel was a great host, all instructions were clear and helpful.
Overall, the space is a fantastic one that is used very effectively, and we would definitely return. Thanks Axel!
This was our first time in Paris but Axel made things so easy. The directions from the airport to the apartment were great. The stairs were quite narrow with a suitcase but manageable. The apartment was great. Nice and quite, clean and tidy and great size for the two of us. The location couldn't be better. We walked everywhere, the louvre, the Eiffel Tower and the champs élysées quite easily. The apartment is also surrounded by cafés, restaurants and even am Australian themed bar.
Excellent, just as describe no surprises. Communication with Axel is outstanding, quick to respond. Location is incredible walking distance to Louvre, Notre-Dame, Pont des arts and many bistros, restaurants and shops. We actually walked to the Eiffle Tower from Axel's place about 35min. We only had two Bath towels though a couple more would be appreciated. Highly recommended to stay there. Great location!!!
We didn't get to meet Axel but he was easy to reach by email and phone. We needed to contact Axel regarding access to the building and to ask questions regarding the local grocery store location. Axel was very helpful and responsive. He also left helpful tips and information typed out for our arrival.
There are many narrow stairs to climb. Recommend you are stable and fit in order to navigate. Heavy luggage would be very difficult to get up the stairs. (We traveled with small backpacks and carry on luggage.)
The studio is small, clean and serviceable including a washing machine, refrigerator and stovetop. We were able to save money on food by shopping at the local Monoprix just minutes away. It is also handy to have a washing machine and detergent available to wash clothes. We found the location was ideal - about a ten minute walk from Notre Dame. Also very close to the Blue & Yellow lines of the RER which made for easy access to and from the airport and to the major attractions along the Seine and out to Versailles. It was a small but comfortable location with a modern flair.
Hôte de qualité que je recommande vivement. Le petit chien est très gentil, très propre.
J'ai eu une très bonne communication avec Axel qui est un membre airbnb sérieux. Axel a laissé la maison en ordre et a respecté les consignes de départ. Je le recommande comme invité.
Axel was easy going, good communication and great guest.
Axel, voyageur discret et très sympa ! un plaisir de l'accueillir !
Axel was a perfect guest !!!
Axel and his friend were wonderful guests. They were friendly, flexible, respectful, tidy and independent. Highly recommended to future hosts.
Axel is a very friendly and amicable person! He was in staying at my house during the March 11th earthquake and I was very glad to hear he made it back to the house despite the transportation collapse in the city that day. He was also helpful in letting me know how my house was doing after the shake. Axel is clean, considerate, quiet and a good roommate. It was a pleasure to meet him and I was just very relieved that he managed to still navigate Tokyo and make the best of the trip despite the challenging circumstances.
It's been a pleasure to have Axel and his friend as guests in my apartment. I felt complete comfort in having a fellow Airbnb host stay at my place. Axel and his friend left the apartment in clean condition. Everything was exactly how I left it. I would definitely have them as guests again.
I had the pleasure to have Axel's place for myself a few times when he was away, and I have to say that it was always a nice experience. It is so well-centered, 5 minutes from les Halles and all its metro lines, 5 minutes from the Centre George Pompidou, really close from the Marais and all the galleries, shops... I always had a really good vibe in this apartment. It will always be perfect for a couple or anyone wanting to experience Paris from its central location in a quiet apartment in safe neighborhood.
I've stayed in Axel's comfortable apartment quite a few times when visiting Paris.
It is in the heart of Paris, right in the trendy Quartier Montorgueil and all it's life (galleries, lively streets, museums, cafés, bars, restaurants, concerts, cinemas, day life, night life). The Centre George Pompidou, the Louvre, Notre Dame, Sorbonne and Quartier Latin are all accessible within minutes of walk. Amazingly, the apartment itself is very quiet, calm and secure. Silent at night, cool during hot days... Your interaction with Axel will always be perfect: speedy, simple, courteous, and precise. The apartment is exactly as seen on the pictures, Internet works instantly... I trully wish I could have this apartment in Paris!

Fabio's Italian Kitchenby Fabio Viviani
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
When Fabio Viviani was growing up in a housing project in Florence, Italy, the center of his world was the kitchen, where his mother, grandmother, and especially his great-grandmother instilled in him a love for cooking and good food.
Now he shares the best of Italian home cooking while telling the story of his hardscrabble childhood, his success as a chef in the United States, and the women in his family who inspired him. In more than 150 delicious recipes, Viviani takes us from his family home, where his great-grandmother taught him to make staples like Italian Apple Cake and Homemade Ricotta, to the kitchen of a local trattoria, where he honed his craft cooking restaurant favorites like Gnocchi and the Perfect Tiramisu, and then across Italy where he studied each region's finest recipes, from Piedmont's Braised Ossobuco to Emilia Romagna's Perfect Meat Sauce.
A gorgeously illustrated cookbook, Fabio's Italian Kitchen is a celebration of food and family that brings all the joy, fun, and flair that Fabio Viviani embodies to your kitchen.
Fabio Viviani was born in Florence, Italy, and became a sous chef at Il Pallaio, a trattoria in Firenze, at the age of sixteen. He now works as the owner and executive chef of Cafe Firenze, a renowned Italian restaurant in Ventura County, California, and Osteria Firenze, a Los Angeles Italian eatery. He has appeared on Top Chef (season five), Top Chef All Stars, and Life After Top Chef.
From growing up in a Florentine housing project to charming millions on Top Chef, Italian chef Fabio Viviani blends his amazing personal story with his favorite recipes from his home country.
Fabio shares the best of Italian home cooking while telling the story of his own, hardscrabble Italian childhood (and subsequent success upon arrival in US) and especially the women in his life mother and great grandmother who taught him to cook and inspired him. The book will feature photos and over 150 recipes with stories, including Viviani staples (Italian Apple Cake, 7 Flavors Meat), restaurant favorites (Gnocchi, the Perfect Tiramisu), and recipes from his travels and apprenticeships across different regions of Italy (Braised Ossobuco from Piedmont, the Perfect Meat Sauce from Emilia Romagna).
"Follow Viviani into his Italian kitchen with this collection of 150 family-inspired recipes and personal stories that shaped his approach to joyful, energetic cooking. From humble beginnings in Tuscany — where mealtime was a family celebration and dishes were prepared with common-sense, simple ingredients and the principle that 'less is more' — Viviani (popular Top Chef contestant and star of Chow Ciao! from Yahoo!) presents a passionate and confident approach to cooking that satisfies both cook and those who eat these unpretentious and uncomplicated dishes. Viviani offers recipes reflecting both his training and the best of traditional home-cooked food. Chapters feature classic appetizers; soups; pasta, gnocchi, and risotto; meat; seafood; chicken; salads; and desserts. My Grandma's Overcooked Veal Shanks is a melt-in-your-mouth braised dish, and My Aunt From Siena's Bean Soup marries sausage, wine, and cannellini beans. One chapter is dedicated solely to his mother's go-to recipes — Pepper Stew, a pork-based Meat with Seven Flavors, and Tripe in Tomato. He cooks with aplomb. The cookbook is an infectious invitation to join in the fun and share that signature 'Boom!' Viviani brings to cooking truly memorable Italian meals." Publishers Weekly Copyright PWxyz, LLC.
