![]() ![]() ![]() This wish-I'd-thought-of-that compendium provides an excellent impetus for a craft session: the ingredients are cheap, and mistakes can be eaten as salad (if artists have the heart). It's a sentiment as healthy as an apple a day, but the book's real charm is derived from the almost-ready-made ""sculptures""-as an afterword calls them.

Meanwhile, the rhyming text draws comparisons between the emotive plants and its audience when it queries, ""Wired? Tired? Need a kiss?/ Do you know anyone like this?"" The plotless and largely superfluous narrative recommends expressing jealousy or affection (""When how you feel is understood,/ you have a friend, and that feels good""). Their groupings imply close relationships: lemons trade meaningful glances and a little onion cries. The animated groceries are exhibited, actual size or larger, against crisp hues of harvest gold, melon green or late-night-sky blue. Without further ado, the veggie becomes a face, with a knobby stem or skinny root for a schnozzola an upended mushroom has a hilarious piglike snout, while a kiwi fruit has a button nose. Freymann and Elffers find a piece of ""expressive produce"" and attach two black-eyed peas for eyes. ![]() Photos of scowling oranges and gregarious scallions garnish this garden of delights from the creators of Play with Your Food. ![]()

Conventional wisdom held that in no way would a republic work over such a large area, controlling such a large group of people. ![]() But in reality, nothing about the drafting and ratification of the US Constitution was guaranteed. Early supporters often treated the document as if it were inspired by a god, however. Klarman goes out of his way to demonstrate this in the introduction of his grand work The Framers’ Coup: The Making of the United States Constitution. No divine being handed the organization of the new government to the founders, blazoned on stone tablets. Many were landowners, and were prominent and influential among their colonial citizenry. Humans wrote the United States Constitution.

The audiobook, in particular, is excellent, with two fantastic narrators in Sneha Mathan and Vikas Adam. I read it straight through and didn’t regret a second. Dimple’s unabashed ambition was refreshing (and sends a strong message to young girls with similar interests), while Rishi’s romanticism was simply endearing. ![]() Sneha Mathan and Vikas Adam are perfectly cast as Dimple and Rishi (I’ve already downloaded my next listens from each of them), and I fell in love with these characters as they fell in love with each other. I was in a listening rut when I stumbled upon this book, and it was exactly what I needed to re-engage. But unbeknownst to her, it’s because they’ve been arranging for her to marry Rishi Patel-who also happens to be attending the same program. When they readily agree to her attending a summer program for aspiring web developers, she thinks it’s because they finally understand her goals. Dimple Shah is strong-willed, ambitious, and at 18 years old, not looking for her IIH (Ideal Indian Husband). When Dimple Met Rishi by Sandhya Menon marries my two favorite genres: YA and romance. ![]() ![]() ![]() "What we're seeing is an authenticity gap. ![]() ![]() "Empathetic leadership and support for employees' mental health with programs like Safe Spaces to Talk – which give employees in the LGBT+ community and others a safe place for sharing their experiences and gaining support – can help especially during the COVID-19 pandemic." "There is much more corporations can do to support LGBT+ people's career aspirations and allow them to bring their full selves to work," said Ella Slade, IBM global LGBT+ leader. Strikingly, a global IBM study of CEOs from earlier this year showed only 17 percent of CEOs surveyed ranked diversity and inclusion among the most important organizational attributes for engaging employees. Across all surveyed racial identity groups, lesbian, gay and bisexual respondents see their sexual orientation as the primary driver of the discrimination they've personally experienced in the workplace. The new IBM study " Striving for authenticity," conducted with Out & Equal Workplace Advocates and Workplace Pride, also found that discrimination is more pronounced where race, gender, and sexual orientation intersect. ![]() |
