Happy Birthday or Tequila

Happy Birthday: 22 Spectacularly Easy Birthday Cakes, Amazing to Look at and Quick to Make

Author: Anna Von Marburg

Happy Birthday offers an alternative: birthday cakes that are fabulously creative and fun as well as incredibly easy to make. Cake designs for potted sunflowers, football fields, aquariums, and teapots involve recipes that make use of kid-fri<%END%>ly ingredients such as lollipops, candy, and ice cream. Step-by-step instructions and tips for making perfect creations the first time around are included. Designed for times when style is important but convenience is paramount, each cake can be baked and decorated within a few hours.

Tequila

Author: Santiago Melazzini

Santiago Melazzini's short moving pictures--flip books--of literally black-and-white and figuratively colorful Mexican life are as low-tech as it gets: watch the masked luchadores bounce off the wrestling-ring ropes and then fall to the mat, watch the boxer punch, the Mariachi band play, or the tequila have its way, and then watch it all again backwards. An elemental pleasure and an ideal gift.
