On these long steamy days of summer is there anything that sounds better than a nice fresh salad?
Some people can create wonderful salads as if by magic. But I'm not one of those people. Even wandering through farmers market I get stumped on what would go well together.
ICPL has a some great salad cookbooks. (Does one cook salad?) Check out the new Salad pop-up display on the 2nd floor west of the Reference Desk, or at search in the ICPL catalog for subject Salads for some great ideas.
The title is not just a hook – Peerless has written a great guide for those of us who for one reason or another have no luck with houseplants. Too much of the wrong kind of love or not enough of the right kind of light – there are many things that lead to plant demise. This book is helpful even If you’re not sure what type of plant you have. It begins with close to 200 plant thumbnails to help you figure out what plant you're dealing with. -Beth
