Giftsfrom the Kitchen ? Ann Kleinberg:
I have a thing for cookbooks, I have loads of them and I love nothing more than snuggling up on the sofa and just looking through them. This particular book was a birthday present from my Mum last January and now that Christmas is here, (woohoo), it has been getting plenty of use.
Giftsfrom the Kitchen is a very pretty and girly hardback book from marks and Spencers. It is styled in a very kitsch way with lots of pretty pictures, pink and gingham! It is the sort of cookbook that instantly makes me want to a don a pinny and morph into a 1950s house-wife! The theme of pink and pale green flows throughout the book and teamed with the beautiful photography it works perfectly to get you into the mood to make lovely edible gifts which is, of course, the theme of the book.
There are forty recipes in ...
Advantages: Must-go for catholics Disadvantages: No
a documentary on psychology and if you look closely at this part of the fresco-Adam and God, you would notice that the shape of this whole picture looks like the human brain-apparently there is a saying that man "invented" God in their head!!!
One of the most important function of the chapel is as a venue for the election of each successive pope in a ceremony called the conclave. On this occasion, a chimney is installed on the roof of the chapel from which smoke rises as a signal. If white smokes appears(created by burning the ballots of the election and some additives), a new pope has been elected.
The final stop in Vatican is the St Peter's Basilica, the largest church in the world. Designed by Bramante and Raphael and with the dome added by Michaelangelo, it is a magnificent piece of art. It looks like a palace, rather than a church ...

Advantages: Some great descriptions of Venice Disadvantages: Slow moving story lacked a spark to ignite it
Background:
As many of you will know I have read and reviewed many novels by Donna Leon. When I saw this one the other day and realised I had not read it I had to purchase it. This author is one of my favourites, so I was really looking forward to it especially as the introduction to it sounded intriguing.
About the author:

Although born in America, she has travelled extensively and has made this city her home for the past 20 years. She has written 17 novels featuring Commissario Brunetti as the investigation officer; this is book 14 in the series.
Synopsis of the book:
The death of a Black African from Somali in the market square, while selling there brings Guido Brunetti into action. It is ...

Album Notes
Full title: Tiny Music...Songs From The Vatican Gift Shop. Stone Temple Pilots: Scott Weiland (vocals, percussion); Robert DeLeo (guitar, electric harpsichord, vibraphone, bass, 6-string bass, handclaps, percussion, background vocals); Dean DeLeo (guitar, bass, 6-string bass, handclaps); Eric Kretz (Fender Rhodes piano, drums, handclaps, percussion).

Engineers: Nick DiDia, Chris Goss, Tracy Chisholm.
Recorded at Westerly Ranch, Santa Ynez, California and Hollywood Sound, Los Angeles, California. "Trippin' On A Hole In A Paper Heart" was nominated for a 1997 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance. On their third album, Stone Temple Pilots distance themselves from the grunge movement that was their springboard into the multi-platinum neighborhood. From the onset, TINY MUSIC... finds the group dabbling with their sound; "Press Play," a one-minute instrumental rides a slinky funk groove, juiced along by returning producer Brendan O'Brien on Fender Rhodes piano. From here, the DeLeo brothers and drummer Eric Kretz show a willingness to musically experiment with Beatlesque songs ("Lady Picture Show"), a Leon Redbone-like instrumental replete with slack-guitar phrasings ("Daisy") and a loung-ey track that lulls the listener with liberal applications of vibraphone and harpsichord ("And So I Know"). Lyrically, Weiland continues to enigmatically allude to matters of personal importance--whether it be the price of fame in "Adhesive," featuring a muted trumpet solo by Dave Ferguson that conveys the song's somber tone, or the shallowness of a fictional girlfriend in "Art School Girl." As a whole, TINY LIGHTS... gives Stone Temple Pilots the chance to shrug off the grunge mantle that many others continue to cling to.
Album Reviews
Rolling Stone (5/2/96, p.51) - 3 Stars (out of 5) - "...their best and most grunge-free album to date...a little poppy, a little groovy and ultracatchy..."
