Expanding My Hoard

[jarandhel]

I got two more books in the mail today! :) The Permaculture Book of Ferment and Human Nutrition, and Mad About Mead. This adds to my growing pile of books on fermentation and meadmaking. So far, in addition to the new pair, I have:

• The Joy of Pickling


• Wild Fermenation


• Making Mead: a complete guide to the making of sweet and dry Mead, Melomel, Metheglin, Hippocras, Pyment and Cyser


• Making Mead (Honey Wine): History, Recipes, Methods and Equipment


• The Compleat Meadmaker

I'm still waiting on five more:

• Sacred and Herbal Healing Beers: The Secrets of Ancient Fermentation


• Preserving Food without Freezing or Canning: Traditional Techniques Using Salt, Oil, Sugar, Alcohol, Vinegar, Drying, Cold Storage, and Lactic Ferment


• Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook that Challenges Politically Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats


• The Revolution Will Not Be Microwaved: Inside America's Underground Food Movements


• Making Sauerkraut and Pickled Vegetables at Home: Creative Recipes for Lactic Fermented Food to Improve Your Health

I'm also waiting on a shipment of synthetic quartz crystals and 1 bismuth egg from http://www.teachersource.com and while I was out yesterday I picked up Seekers of the Healing Energy and History of Energy Transference at the metaphysical shop (Special Treasures) in Old Town Gaithersburg, and the Mushi-Shi Starter Set at Suncoast in the mall out there by Rhianna's.

This has been a very good holiday season. :)
