Review & Description

Vinnie Whitney-Ross is passionate about wine, he sells it, he talks about it, he lives it and he drinks it. He, and his wife, Anna, enjoy their life in the heart of London, a life that revolves around wine and chocolate. Then a twist of fate puts him in the wrong place at the wrong time and he witnesses two gruesome murders. By another twist of fate he knows the murderer, from another life long ago. He's left with no choice and in order to survive he must commit a terrible crime.

In return for testifying against his childhood friend, he receives immunity and both he and Anna are placed in witness protection. He fulfils his dream, instead of selling wine he gets to make it. They buy a boutique winery on an island off the coast of New Zealand and, with new names and new identities, they continue Rocky Bay's fine tradition of exquisite Bordeaux blends.

But festival success brings recognition and recognition brings danger. Some very nasty men are hunting Vinnie to convince him to rescind his testimony. Everything is at stake, his precious wife, his dog, his winery, it is time to stand and fight…and add to the rising body count.

"In Vino Veritas" is the first in a trilogy of crime novellas featuring Vinnie and Anna Whitney-Ross and Detective Inspector Peter Harper. Death by a bottle of Petrus, death by drowning in a vat of must…In Wine, Truth.

Review & Description

Tisano's founders began sourcing and importing the first organically certified cacao from Venezuela. While helping small farming communities in South America get their cacao beans to the market we fell in love with cacao and began developing our own products and are still actively involved across the process; from the Amazon Jungles to Amazon.com. Tisano was the first to introduce Cacao Tea -The Real Chocolate Tea and continues to innovate delicious and beneficial ways of enjoying pure cacao.

&nsbp;

At Tisano we believe good chocolate needs to remain as close to nature as possible. Our Nibbles keep nature intact - Our organic cacao beans are hand picked, lightly roasted, gently crushed into bite size morsels and drenched in rich dark chocolate. Giving you a 100% cacao bean crunchy center packed with antioxidants, flavanols, magnesium and potassium. Read more

Review & Description

Not all Southern cooking is the same, and this collection is not about fried chicken or biscuits and gravy. Not that some of those famous Southern dishes aren't delicious.

Being from Virginia originally, I grew up with my mother cooking like her mother. Everything was smothered in butter, grease, or heavy cream. My Mom was known to fry Krispy Kreme doughnuts in butter, served hot to our family. Yum yum.

So with apologies to my early days, I offer this collection of (mostly) healthy alternatives. Each of these recipes is the result of my becoming a vegetarian just after my college days, but easing back into the mainstream over a few years. The results of my culinary journey developed an eclectic collection of my family's favorites.

From melt in your mouth eggplant parmesan, to green beans that taste fabulous, without the ham hoc, we have enjoyed these dishes for years. Fantastic and healthy halibut, and McGuire Chicken (you must try this one) are examples of the variety.

And, because you deserve it, treat yourself with the best cookies ever baked, anywhere, by anybody. I'm not kidding.

I trust that you will find my family's favorites, becoming your favorites as well. Enjoy.

And you gotta try my 25 years' best cookies.Not all Southern cooking is the same, and this collection is not about fried chicken or biscuits and gravy. Not that some of those famous Southern dishes aren't delicious.
