World-renowned model and wellness advocate Gisele Bundchen presents a collection of 100 delicious, accessible recipes focused on kickstarting and maintaining a healthy lifestyle while finding balance and intention through food. Gisele believes wellness begins with food. At home, she follows an 80/20 plan, with 80 percent of her diet focused on fueling her body with healthy and lean proteins and nutrient-rich vegetables while the remaining 20 percent is reserved for eating with more flexibility (hello mom's chicken lasagna!). In her first cookbook, she devotes the first quarter of the book to walking readers through adjusting to this new mindset and offers practical guidance for making it work. From breaking cycles to setting intentions, the merits of an occasional juice fast, buying in bulk, minimizing waste, and meal planning, this book of 100 recipes is as much about cooking as it is about living with mindfulness. Just like many of us, Gisele is no stranger to restrictive diet fads and unhealthy eating habits. In Nourish, she provides guidance on how to create a routine filled with positive intention, delicious food, and gratitude to improve your health and mindset.

Includes bibliographical references and index.Riffling through the wardrobes of years gone by, costume historian Lucy Adlington reveals the rich stories underlying the clothes we wear in this stylish tour of the most important developments in the history of fashion, from ancient times to the present day. Starting with underwear - did you know Elizabeth I owned just one pair of drawers, worn only after her death? She moves garment by garment through Western attire, exploring both the items we still wear every day and those that have gone the way of the dodo (sugared petticoats, farthingales and spatterdashers to name but a few). Lavishly illustrated throughout, and crammed with fascinating and eminently quotable facts, Stitches in Time shows how the way we dress is inextricably bound up with considerations of aesthetics, sex, gender, class and lifestyle and offers us the chance to truly appreciate the extraordinary qualities of these, our most ordinary possessions.LSC
