PARENTING/HOME DESIGN

Design MomHow to Live with Kids: A Room-by-Room Guide

Gabrielle Stanley blair

The intersection of motherhood and design

Ever since Gabrielle Stanley Blair became a parent, she’s believed in one idea strongly: Design doesn’t disappear when kids appear. She has always felt that an intentionally designed environment is one of the greatest gifts you can give to your family. That the items and decor one chooses tell a story. That a home is truly a child’s first and favorite picture book and the comfort she reaches for when she needs it most. In this, her first book, Blair offers a room-by-room manual for keeping things sane, organized, creative, and stylish. She provides advice on making a foyer more functional; which sofas work best for different kinds of families; how to organize family photos; throwing birthday parties; kitchen organization; cooking with children; keeping a home office; how to deal with a never-ending stream of toys; traveling with children; how to balance it all; and much, much more.

G A b r i e l l e S tA n l e y b l A i r is the founder of Design Mom—praised as a top parenting blog by The Wall Street Journal, Parents magazine, Time, and Better Homes & Gardens—which features everything at the intersection of motherhood and design, from DIY projects and home tours to book reviews, family-friendly travel ideas, and discussions about modern parenting. She is a founder of the blockbuster biannual design conference Alt Summit and a creator of the video series Olive Us. She and her husband, Ben Blair, along with their six children—Ralph, Maude, Olive, Oscar, Betty, and Flora June—live in Oakland, California.

Fire Equals FlavorA Manifesto for Better Barbecue and Grilling

Joe Carroll and NiCk FauChald

Recipes and lessons for live-fire cooking

Joe Carroll makes stellar barbecue and grilled meats in Brooklyn, New York, at his acclaimed restaurants Fette Sau and St. Anselm. In Fire Equals Flavor, Carroll gives us his top 20 lessons (i.e., chapters) and more than 90 recipes to make great fire-cooked foods at home, proving that you don’t need to have fancy equipment or regional traditions to make incredible barbecue. While most barbecue and grilling books focus solely on recipes, Fire Equals Flavor teaches the hows and whys of live-fire cooking: how to create low and slow fires, how to properly grill whole fish, why American whisky blends so nicely with barbecued meats. Simple and straightforward recipes nested within each lesson include Pulled Pork Shoulder, Beef Short Ribs, Bourbon-Brined Center-Cut Pork Chops, Sweet Tea–Brined Poussin, Grilled Clams with Garlic Butter, and Charred Long Beans. Fire Equals Flavor shows that anyone can follow these simple lessons to become an expert.

Born and raised in northern New Jersey, J o e C a r r o l l didn’t grow up steeped in Southern barbecue culture. With a curious nature and a love of food, Carroll launched barbecue joint Fette Sau in 2007, luring equal parts hipsters and barbecue devotees to the garage-turned-restaurant in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. With his beer garden, Spuyten Duyvil, and casual American steak house, St. Anselm, in Brooklyn, Carroll continues to expand, opening Fette Sau in Philadelphia (in 2012) and St. Anselm in Manhattan (in 2014), and he plans on rolling out the concepts in cities around the country. Carroll; his wife, Kim; and their twin daughter and son live in Brooklyn, New York.

The Jewelry Recipe BookTransforming Ordinary Materials into Stylish and Distinctive Earrings, Bracelets, Necklaces, and Pins

NaNcy SoriaNo

More than 100 recipes for make-it-at-home jewelry

The Jewelry Recipe Book takes materials available at large craft stores (as well as specialty shops and artisan shops on Etsy)—beads, shrink plastic, leather, lace, pearls, sequins, polymer clay, yarn, and pinecones, to name a few—and transforms them into one-of-a-kind pieces of jewelry. Each of the 35 mini chapters organized by material consists of three projects and three skill levels, adding up to more than 100 stunning pieces that could easily be found for sale at Urban Outfitters or Anthropologie. Every piece is beautifully photographed, as are the majority of how-to steps, and the information is presented in an easy-to-follow way, like a recipe. The book also includes an overview of simple jewelry-making techniques and tips, with best practices for how to work with various materials; how to wear jewelry; and how to work with design elements that include color, scale, and shape.

N a N c y S o r i a N o developed an interest in design early as she rummaged through her mother’s jewelry box and tagged along on flea-market trips. She introduced crafting and DIY to Country Living while she served as the magazine’s editor in chief and has also served as the Publishing Director for Craft at F+W Media. Today, she is a brand strategist and editorial director for companies like Rue La La and Cricut. She has been a featured expert on Good Morning America, Today, and Martha Live on SiriusXM Radio, and she finds time to bake in the kitchen of the 1920s Tudor cottage in New York where she lives with her husband, her son, and her many collections—including a good amount of vintage and handmade jewelry.

Menswear Dog Presents:The New Classics Fresh Looks for the Modern Man

DaviD Fung and Yena Kim

A quirky, practical guide to men’s style, with a twist

Bodhi, the Shiba Inu behind the beloved blog Menswear Dog, is here to show you how to dress like a man. Organized seasonally, The New Classics highlights the essential items every man needs in his wardrobe—from a chambray shirt to a perfectly fitted peacoat (all modeled by Bodhi, of course)—and shows readers how to mix and match them all year long.

The book is jam-packed with serious fashion advice, from the only knot a man needs to know how to tie to the secret to a perfectly fitted suit jacket. Readers will learn when to splurge (on the perfect white dress shirt) and when to save (snag your military field jacket at a thrift store), what to wear to a summer wedding, and the key to impeccable interview attire. Also included are packing lists, clothing care, the brands every guy should know, and so much more.

Husband-and-wife duo Dav i D F u n g and Y e n a K i m are the creative force behind Menswear Dog, a one-of-a-kind blog featuring photos of their Shiba Inu, Bodhi, styled in serious menswear. Bodhi has appeared on Good Morning America, The Rachael Ray Show, Anderson Cooper Live, and E! News, and in national publications including Time, Bloomberg Businessweek, GQ, Details, and Esquire.

Ideas for effortless entertaining in the great outdoors

“Get outdoors and enjoy yourself.” That’s the mantra of The Picnic. Picnics are the silver bullet of entertaining: they take the stress out of parties and leave only the fun. This irresistible book is filled with recipes, tips, tricks, and the secrets to effortless outdoor get-togethers. A key tenet to picnicking is that there are no rules—but there are hints to make it easier. Menu planning and portioning, how best to transport your feast, and what to do when bad weather strikes are just some of the topics covered in The Picnic. Alfresco-friendly recipes for Shocking Pink Beet Hummus, Japanese Potato Salad, Smoky Tea-Brined Fried Chicken, Blue Ribbon Tomato Pie, Banana à Trois Pudding Parfaits, and Sour Cherry Sangria make these parties no ordinary fete. Features include deviled eggs 12 ways, Salads on a Stick, Ten Tantalizing Tea Sandwiches, and Ten Fabulous Floats, all illustrated and presented visually to make for an entertaining read.

M a r n i e H a n e l writes for Vanity Fair, The New York Times Magazine, and Marie Claire. a n d r e a S lo n e c k e r is a cookbook writer, the recipe editor of Kinfolk, and the author of Pretzel Making at Home and Eggs on Top (Chronicle Books). J e n S t e v e n S o n runs the Portland food blog Under the Table with Jen and is the author of the self-published book Portland’s 100 Best Places to Stuff Your Faces. Together, Hanel, Slonecker, and Stevenson lead the Portland Picnic Society, a group that was founded to celebrate the art of picnicking.

A Medal of Honor Book

Choosing CourageAmazing Stories of Heroism from Soldiers and Civilians Alike

Peter Collier and the Congressional Medal of Honor foundation

A riveting collection of nonfiction accounts of war and everyday heroism for middle-grade readers

What turns an ordinary person into a hero? What happens in the blink of an eye on a battlefield (or in any dangerous situation) to bring out true courage? The men and women who have been recognized by the Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation know the answers to these questions deep in their hearts. We learn of Jack Lucas, a 13-year-old who kept his real age a secret so he could fight in World War II—where he deliberately fell on a grenade to save his buddies during the Iwo Jima invasion—and Clint Romesha, who almost single-handedly prevented a remote U.S. Army outpost in Afghanistan from being taken over by the Taliban. Also included are civilians who have been honored by the Foundation for outstanding acts of bravery in crisis situations: for example, Jencie Fagan, a gym teacher who put herself in danger to disarm a troubled eighth grader before he could turn a gun on his classmates. Adding depth and context are illuminating sidebars throughout and essays on the combat experience and its aftermath: topics such as overcoming fear; a mother mourning her son; and “surviving hell” as a prisoner of war. Back matter includes a glossary and an index.

Also included are civilians who have been honored by the Foundation for outstanding acts of bravery in crisis situations: for example, Jencie Fagan, a gym teacher who put herself in danger to disarm a troubled eighth grader before he could turn a gun on his classmates. Adding depth and context are illuminating sidebars throughout and essays on the combat experience and its aftermath: topics such as overcoming fear; a mother mourning her son; and “surviving hell” as a prisoner of war. Back matter includes a glossary and an index.
