Kitchen Classics - Picnic Hamper

I love a good picnic! Nothing beats getting outdoors, away from the house, away from work, away from responsibilities, and feel the sun on my face and the wind in my hair. Spread the rug, bring out some yummy, easy food, and relax…

Whether you are a picnic traditionalist or someone who just loves to host outdoor gatherings of a casual kind, Kitchen Classics: Picnic Hamper has everything you’ll ever need for al fresco entertaining.

It contains over 175 recipes, including old favourites like sausage rolls and raised pork pie, and ’smarter’ fare like prawn and papaya salad and almond friands. With tasty barbecued food and refreshing drinks, all of the recipes in Kitchen Classics: Picnic Hamper are suited for outdoor consumption and can be easily picked up and eaten with fingers or forks, or served without fanfare from bowls or platters.

Sacred Space

This wonderful book encourages us to Create Sanctuary.

‘Our homes are mirrors of ourselves. Through them we can interface with the universe.’ Everything in the universe is composed of constantly changing energy, including our homes and their contents. By clearing and enhancing this energy, we can turn our living spaces not only into sanctuaries for ourselves but also into places which radiate positive energy for the benefit of others.

In this fascinating and unusual book, international lecturer and healer Denise Linn shows how we can infuse our homes (and offices) with a sense of cosmic order so they become nurturing centres of strength and health. Drawing upon her Cherokee Indian heritage, as well as the knowledge she has personally collected from the native traditions around the world, Denise offers simple but effective techniques including the use of: Feng Shui; Spirit Smoke; Purifying Fire; Mystic Sound; The Way of the Shaman to help us create a sacred space wherever we make our home.
