Elliott For Dummies, 2007 Will Make You See the Light No need for a long review here. This is a great book on seasonal affective disorder, also known as SAD. It's written in the typical "For Dummies" format: uses layman's terms, icons througout the book to alert you to key points, organized in an easy-to-follow manner (i.e. paragraphs/ideas broken up in the chapters for easier "digestion" of the info). Also typical of the "Dummies" books is the ...             Simply Organic: A Cookbook for Sustainable, Seasonal, and Local Ingredients11 reviews Jesse Ziff Cool Chronicle Books, 2008 Great cookbook!

I also love that the recipes ...             Seasonal Southwest Cooking: Contemporary Recipes & Menus for Every Occasion17 reviews Barbara Pool Fenzl Northland, 2005 Every Recipe Has Been a Winner!!

Rosenthal MD The Guilford Press, 2006 this book changed my life This book was SO, SO helpful to me.

These two ...             Seasonal Spanish Food: 125 Simple Recipes to Bring Home the Flavors of Spain Jose Pizarro Kyle Books, 2010 Pizarro's infectious enthusiasm for Spanish cooking permeates every page.

That being said, 'Urban Pantry', which I just acquired, is so worth the small amount of space it takes up! Every single recipe is one that I will try, which is saying a lot--usually I take only 1 or 2 recipes away from a cookbook this size. ...             The Seasonal Detox Diet: Remedies from the Ancient Cookfire2 reviews Carrie L'Esperance Healing Arts Press, 2002 A Wonderful Guide to Caring for Your Body & Soul with Nature's Bounty This book has been a treasured guide of mine for several years now, and I recently purchased my 3rd copy!

The recipes are written in paragraph form instead of the standard form and somehow this makes recipes way easier.

I find myself coming up with my own dishes based on his.
