The book is gorgeous and makes a great gift, so if you need a present for the foodies in your life, look no further. The first reviews are in, and Library Journal says, "Shafia's dishes are original and inspired. Cooks are sure to find new recipes to jazz up a meal. How about Persian Stuffed Dumpling Squash with Rose Petals and Chickpea Cakes (Indian-spiced cakes)?” Phila City Paper says, "Shafia's non-preachy tone and sparkling enthusiasm make the book an inspiring read, and even the converted can learn a thing or two....No matter the season, the book's biggest gift is its lack of stereotypical self-denying, joylessly “green” environmentalism.” Hey, those are some tasty word-bites!]]> http://susty.com/book-lucid-food-cooking-for-an-eco-concious-life-louisa-shafia-green-eat/feed/ 0 http://susty.com/bill-maher-australian-super-drought-sydney-dust-storm-means-global-warming-skeptic-inhofe-senator-now-video/ http://susty.com/bill-maher-australian-super-drought-sydney-dust-storm-means-global-warming-skeptic-inhofe-senator-now-video/#comments Sat, 03 Oct 2009 18:44:31 +0000 by George Spyros, New York City, USA http://susty.com/?p=7645 http://susty.com/bill-maher-australian-super-drought-sydney-dust-storm-means-global-warming-skeptic-inhofe-senator-now-video/feed/ 0 http://susty.com/dust-storm-turns-sky-black-in-broken-hill-australia-video/ http://susty.com/dust-storm-turns-sky-black-in-broken-hill-australia-video/#comments Tue, 22 Sep 2009 18:53:27 +0000 by George Spyros, New York City, USA http://susty.com/?p=7650 http://susty.com/dust-storm-turns-sky-black-in-broken-hill-australia-video/feed/ 0 http://susty.com/michael-pollan-food-politics-agriculture-system-breakdown/ http://susty.com/michael-pollan-food-politics-agriculture-system-breakdown/#comments Tue, 07 Jul 2009 06:05:50 +0000 by George Spyros, New York City, USA http://susty.com/?p=6831 eater of Fruity Pebbles).

He also touches on some basic concepts for how our everyday actions wind up contributing to the pollution of our oceans and how that comes back to haunt us on our dinner plates. ]]> http://susty.com/fabien-cousteau-ocean-exploration-industry-pollution-toxic-chemicals-beluga-whale-consumer-pbs-video/feed/ 4 http://susty.com/ray-anderson-on-the-business-logic-of-sustainability-ted-talks-video/ http://susty.com/ray-anderson-on-the-business-logic-of-sustainability-ted-talks-video/#comments Tue, 19 May 2009 01:31:19 +0000 by George Spyros, New York City, USA http://susty.com/?p=6532 http://susty.com/ray-anderson-on-the-business-logic-of-sustainability-ted-talks-video/feed/ 0 http://susty.com/vienna-hiv-fundraiser-life-ball-draws-costumes-celebs-2009-video/ http://susty.com/vienna-hiv-fundraiser-life-ball-draws-costumes-celebs-2009-video/#comments Mon, 18 May 2009 05:52:13 +0000 by Team Susty, Global http://susty.com/?p=6313 http://susty.com/vienna-hiv-fundraiser-life-ball-draws-costumes-celebs-2009-video/feed/ 0
