One day I started to crave peanut butter cookies the way my mother made them. Then weeks later, I had a dream about the hard fudge we used to make back in the 1950s when I was growing up on the South Side of Chicago. And whatever happened to mayonnaise cake? My psyche was trying to tell me something. And this book is the result.
What my psyche has called me to do is gather my goodies into this cookbook-- to pass on the recipes that my family members have used for their celebrations through many decades of the 20th century. I reviewed my dog-eared, batter-splattered recipe cards with all the chicken-scratched handwriting and decided it was time to commit these treasures to digital format. I want the next generation to delight their children and their children's children with these old comfort sweets including home-made hard fudge, mayonnaise cake, pecan tarts, and prize-winning blueberry pie. This is a part of my culture that I don't want to loose in the frenzy for "thin." So here they are, my humble offerings. Indulge, delight, and good night!

My sister worked as a waitress at the Ho-Ho Inn, a Chinese restaurant, on Cass Street in Detroit. She sat a plate of Egg Foo Yung in front of five-year-old me. I had a way with words and quickly renamed this Egg Foo "Yuck." Tears ran down my cheeks as I thought about eating this worm-like mess of food. The Chinese waiter called George came in and looked at me. He took the Egg Foo "Yuck" and threw it in the garbage. Then he went to the freezer and got me one of those ice cream treats that Chinese restaurants serve; a coconut flavored outer shell of ice cream surrounding a mango core. My sister came in and glared at me. George said, "She ate everything, so I gave her an ice cream." I smiled sweetly at George. My love for the Chinese, if not their food, began at that instant. -The Edible Tao

Use this book to make the best meringue pies ever and do it quickly, easily, and reliably. Create fabulous pies filled with smooth, rich custard and heaped with fluffy, white meringue. Italian meringue is made from the same ingredients as ordinary meringue, but the cooking method and results are very different. Its consistency is similar to whipped cream, and it is "mile high" with only three egg whites-plus it keeps well with little shrinkage. The custard recipes (the source of the 51 flavors), use a streamlined microwave method that gives perfect results every time. A quick and easy stovetop method is also provided. The recipes are grouped by custard flavor categories. There is a section of fruit custard recipes which includes lemon, of course, but also lime, and even pink grapefruit, along with flavors such as raspberry and orange pineapple. The chocolate, coffee, and nut section features amaretto chocolate, coffee pecan, maple walnut, and others. The fruit-on-the-bottom section features pies with a fresh fruit or puree layer that is topped with a different custard flavor, such as coconut strawberry, pistachio blackberry, and black forest. There is also a miscellany of flavors such as pumpkin and Rum Delight. Enjoy!

A good piece of BBQ can be judged by many things. But the two most prevalent points are, after you eat a piece you want more. Second point is 2 hours later you should still be tasting it. BBQ does that to you, but so do many other things. This book is written to help appreciate the little things in life by drawing comparisons between good BBQ, Business and Life in general. It is not a business book, a cookbook or a self help book. It's all of these pulled together with observations of various segments of life and business. Read, relax, have some fun and if your truly motivated, crank up the pit and smoke some beef while reading the business section of the paper.
