"Blessed is the person who has earned the love of an old dog." - Sydney Jeanne Seward A heartfelt new book from the author of Supernatural Kids Cookbook and Siren's Feast, An Edible Odyssey . Nancy Mehagian offers a sweet and tender glimpse into the life, joys and woes of Boo Bear, a senior dog whose legs are growing weary, whose face is growing gray and whose family means everything to her when she needs them most. The struggle is real for an old dog, but with snuggles, compassion and patience, Boo Bear shows that senior years can be a happy place of contentment and meaning. A book for dog lovers of all ages. Colorfully illustrated by Yoko Matsuoka.
A friend once called me the Picasso of the potato. I'm a first generation Armenian American whose family narrowly escaped genocide. I left the security of suburban American life to wander the globe and in 1969 established the first vegetarian restaurant on the magical island of Ibiza. After a stint dancing cabaret in Syria, I was incarcerated in an infamous London prison, along with my newborn baby, where I managed, even there, to pioneer a healthy way of eating. Of my culinary memoir Quincy Jones wrote "A spicy brew of recipes and adventures. I don't know whether to eat this book, smoke it or make love to it. Siren's Feast--part cookbook-large part raucous memoir."
