    This is the third and last day in our series of th This is the third and last day in our series of the Three Days of the Writing of the Book of the Law, which is unto Ra-Hoor Khuit, who is the active and solar force of Ra. So for this menu, bold, robust flavors are needed, and all foods that are red, spicy and fiery. This recipe for Corn Bread with Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Chili Honey Butter from "The Thelemic Cookbook" looks very festive with the added sun-dried tomatoes and whole kernels of corn. Honey butter is required, and this one also has an added kick.

    For The Second Day of the Writing of the Book of t For The Second Day of the Writing of the Book of the Law, we concentrate on spring fruits and vegetables that are blue and purple, yellow and orange. Since Hadit relates to the solar plexus, the yellow color will predominate. Also, since Hadit is the counterpart to Nuit, foods that are predominantly fiery will prevail. Of course some balance is always needed, and it will be provided with foods that are cooling. This side dish of Kabocha Squash, Artichoke, and Fennel Sauté has the yellow smoothness of squash, the crunch of roasted fennel, and the natural sweetness of the artichokes in a rich cinnamon butter.

On the last day of November 1891, a village in southern France is preparing for the Christmas season.

But on December 1st, a santon goes missing, then the man represented by that santon is found murdered. The villagers are terrified and the officers are faced with a harrowing task. The clues begin to add up, but not before this quiet and quaint village experiences its worst nightmare since the French Revolution.

    Pearl and Garridan: A Roma Love Story - Two storie Pearl and Garridan: A Roma Love Story - Two stories come together in one book about a family of Roma Travelers set in Romania in 1871. Part One, “The Heart of Romani Pearl” is a romance between a young girl named Pearl who travels in a vardo wagon, and Garridan, who shows her many wonders. Love comes to the fore and they become trapped in the forest. There is only one way to break the spell and escape. Part Two, “The Soul of Garridan Searle” tells of Garridan’s talents as a wood carver. In the evenings, he is called by spirits who seek to lure him to visit their elemental domains, but Garridan is able to capture their power into the wood he carves. A heart-warming story about Romanian culture, a secret carried by Pearl’s family, and how the town rewards them all.
