We are pleased to share a promotion for Extra Helping: Recipes for Building Community One Dish at a Time by Janet Elsbach, our latest EYBD Book on its publication day. Janet's events are shared on our calendar.

One of the essential ways to show up for people is to feed them. When our son was in and out of the hospital for almost a three month period last year, it would have meant everything to me if someone would have brought over a meal. When your mind and body is exhausted, that basic act - even if it is a take-out pizza - is life giving.

This year when we moved our friend prepared dinner for us which we shared at 9 pm with the moving employees on a make-shift picnic table set up in the garage - it was wonderful. The movers stated no one had ever did that for them - sat and shared a meal after they had been working all day. (Our friend also had bought breakfast sandwiches for us all including the movers and we bought pizza for the guys for lunch. She saved that day and we will never forget that.)

Extra Helping is for anyone who wants to nurture others. With recipes tailored to meet many of the dietary modifications that illness and recovery (not to mention modern life) often entail, as well as suggestions that range from mailing a care package to bringing over a full, hot meal, this title will guide us in the best ways to offer our support.  

In eight chapters, Extra Helping walks the helpful friend through cooking for people who are dealing with illness, recovery, and loss - or celebrating babies, birthdays, and new homes. Personal stories from the front lines of care, shortcuts for the time-strapped, and sidebars full of tips and embellishments round out a collection of over 60 recipes (ingredients given in both volume and weight measurements), aid readers in developing a style of caregiving all their own. The true beauty of this special book is its cause - a portion of the sales will go toward Feeding America.
