Yvonne, the incurable snob. Ida, the ultimate goody two-shoes. Haki, the brilliant master of sarcastic wit. Doris, the terminally stingy athlete. Maisha, the "BBC." Tay. They are the Form 1A's at St. Claire's, and top students from all over Kenya. Some come from the remotest rural villages, others from the biggest mansions in the most exclusive neighborhoods of the capital city; others still are from the worst city slums. Under the watchful eye of Sister Marian the headmistress, the eternal punishments of "Terror Mama," the deputy headmistress, and the kindness of their favorite teacher Ms. Sashi, everyone gets along fine... or do they? There is that one club that some students are unable to join... the unbelievable prefect elections... there is also the house competitions business... Something is not quite right. What can Tay do about it?

Holistic nutritionist and highly-regarded blogger Sarah Britton presents a refreshing, straight-forward approach to balancing mind, body, and spirit through a diet made up of whole foods. Sarah Britton's approach to plant-based cuisine is about satisfaction--foods that satiate on a physical, emotional, and spiritual level. Based on her knowledge of nutrition and her love of cooking, Sarah Britton crafts recipes made from organic vegetables, fruits, whole grains, beans, lentils, nuts, and seeds. She explains how a diet based on whole foods allows the body to regulate itself, eliminating the need to count calories. My New Roots draws on the enormous appeal of Sarah Britton's blog, which strikes the perfect balance between healthy and delicious food. She is a "whole food lover," a cook who makes simple accessible plant-based meals that are a pleasure to eat and a joy to make. This book takes its cues from the rhythms of the earth, showcasing 100 seasonal recipes. Sarah simmers thinly sliced celery root until it mimics pasta for Butternut Squash Lasagna, and whips up easy raw chocolate to make homemade chocolate-nut butter candy cups. Her recipes are not about sacrifice, deprivation, or labels--they are about enjoying delicious food that's also good for you.
