Where can a person express frustration, existential crisis, fleeting sadness, and consuming rage -- perhaps all at the same time -- without drawing attention to themself? Where is taking your feelings out with mallets, knives, grinders, and graters not just allowed but encouraged? The kitchen, of course!

Tired parents, stressed worker-bees, and newly-minted adults alike will find recipes for those inevitable moments when you're tired and need to let it all out. Recipes like "Pounded Chicken Parmesan," "Ripped Bread Salad," and "Feeling Sad French Onion Soup" are the perfect outlet for dealing with day-to-day indignities, while soothing kitchen projects like "Braided Challah" and "It'll-All-Be-Okay Chicory and Cannellini Beans" provide a moment of calm in a cuckoo world.

For anyone looking for stress eating's more constructive cousin, Steamed and catharsis cooking are here to lend a helping hand -- or cleaver.

Signed Books are shipped in our specially made book mailing cartons, with the books themselves wrapped in paper to protect them. Sometimes we may ship your order in several parts, particularly if you have 'Pre-Order' titles in your order or titles which are held in stock with our publishing partners.
The Really Important Bit: Because we use tracked, courier and signed for delivery services, please use an address at which your parcel can be received during the normal working day, for example, you may want to have your order delivered to your work address if you're not at home during the day.
