There is a peace to be found in eating what you love that I havent found in any other way. Not everyone can relate to this connection, but for me, its fully correlated. For so long, I struggled with being at peace with my body that the angst manifested in my obsession with food. I wanted to fix my criticism of my body and my internal unease by eating better, restricting, dieting, getting control. It was no surprise I never fixed myself by dieting. It cant be fixed by dieting. I had to start to eat with love to make any headway on my crippling anxiety. I had to eat what I loved and make peace with my cravings to address the deeper issues. For so long, I struggled with what I should eat or shouldnt eat. It was a wonderful way to distract myself from feeling anything else or thinking about uncomfortable topics. Food obsession always reveals a deeper worry. To eat in peace allows us to get honest about what we really feel. The new mantra had to become What would I really love to eat today? I wanted to eat a lot of things, and I wanted doughnuts. I assumed other people wanted to eat doughnuts too. I started making them for myself and getting them out there to the masses. This permission to myself to eat doughnuts turned into a multimillion dollar businessa sign that making decisions out of love can have great results.

Sam’s love of donuts takes him to the Big City where he makes friends with Mr. Bikferd, a world class collector of donuts. But when Mr. Bikferd falls in love with Pretzel Annie, the prophecy of an old homeless woman comes true: “Who needs donuts when you’ve got love?” Mr. Bikferd bequeaths his donut collection to Sam, who uses it to save the old homeless woman from drowning in a basement flooded with coffee. This is a reissue of Mark Alan Stamaty’s masterpiece of the absurd, first published 30 years ago and out of print nearly as long. With an illustration style that mixes a benign Hieronymus Bosch with an urban Where’s Waldo?, Stamaty’s off-the-wall humor is on target for little kids and big kids today.

Drop Dead Chocolate is a sinfully sweet addition to Jessica Beck's delicious Donut Shop Mystery Series. The whole town of April Springs is stirring over the upcoming mayoral election. Suzanne Hart's mother, for one, is dead-set on replacing the current mayor...and what better way for Momma to drum up support than by luring in voters with Suzanne's drop-dead-delicious donuts? Just add chocolate, and they're sure to kill the competition... With Momma's half-baked campaign heating up faster than a donut shop deep fryer, Suzanne wonders if they've bitten off more than they can chew. But when Momma's opponent is brutally murdered, the odds of winning are suddenly, and suspiciously, in their favor. Sure, they'd been planning to beat the mayor—but with speeches and donuts, not a blunt instrument. If Suzanne hopes to reveal the killer's recipe for revenge, she'll have to uncover a plot that's darker than any chocolate...

In her first book, Women Need Donuts, author Leigh Kellis wrote about eating donuts, making a business out of love, and allowing oneself to eat in pleasure and joy. She recommended honoring your craving, living, and indulging. Now, three years later, she admits she didn’t do any of those things. She couldn’t even eat her own donuts for terror of weight gain. She faced a downward spiral of poor health, and struggle. Kellis went on a pleasure lockdown because she was so miserable in her body. After three years, she found food didn’t cure her entirely. In The Love Diet, she shares her journey. At first, it was to solve some health issues and weight gain, and this ultimately led to unexpected healing and self-love that were nothing short of miraculous. In The Love Diet, Kellis goes deep into spirituality to find that weight loss and health are not just about food, but about love. The love diet is a steady diet of love, faith, listening to your intuition, and trusting yourself, your cravings, your choices, your capabilities, and your ability to love. And it’s about eating whatever you want.
