ABOUT THE BOOK:
The producer of An Inconvenient Truth, Laurie David's new mission is to help America's overwhelmed families sit down to a Family Dinner, and she provides all the reasons, recipes and fun tools to do so.
Laurie David speaks from her own experience confronting the challenges of raising two teenage girls. Today's parents have lots to deal with and technology is making their job harder than ever. Research has proven that everything we worry about as parents--from drugs to alcohol, promiscuity, to obesity, academic achievement and just good old nutrition--can all be improved by the simple act of eating and talking together around the table.
Laurie has written a practical, inspirational, fun (and, of course, green) guide to the most important hour in any parent's day. Chock-full chapters include: Over seventy-five kid approved fantastic recipes; tips on teaching green values; conversation starters; games to play to help even the shyest family member become engaged; ways to express gratitude; the family dinner after divorce (hint: keep eating together) and much more. Filled with moving memories and advice from the country's experts and teachers, this book will get everyone away from electronic screens and back to the dinner table.

ReplyDeleteI would give this cookbook to my sister, Amber, who has children ages 8 and 3. I have been variations of vegetarian, green, organic, alternative, complementary, pescotarian, organically omnivorous, and annoying her about it all for 15 years. She just recently has decided that perhaps I may be right about a few things and has been feeding her children a healthier diet. I would love for her to have this cookbook to help provide tasty and healthy dinners for her family. I love those kids with all of my heart and since we only see each other a few times a year(we live 2000 miles apart), I can be there in spirit during dinner:)
I follow you on GFC.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely love to have this book and we share it with both of my brothers (who are recently divorced). They both have children ranging 5 to 13 and it would be a great resource to help these single fathers with dinner time.
