I love A.J. Jacobs. He's the best!

This book rocked my world. Completely.
Aidan Hartley: The Zanzibar Chest
This book has stayed with me (a year later). It's an incredible story. The author is a reporter in Africa. He was in Somalia and Rwanda. The stories are harrowing and heartbreaking.
Robert Fisk: The Great War for Civilisation: The Conquest of the Middle East
I'm only 150 pages in, but it's going to be on my recommonded list for a long time. Everyone should read this book if they want to understand the middle east.
Eric Blehm: The Last Season
The true story of a backcountry Ranger in the Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Forests who went missing. I read about it on Powells.com when the author was a guest blogger. Great so far.
anderson cooper: Dispatches from the edge
I've been waiting for this book to come out . It was a good as I thought it would be. Can I just say that I love Anderson Cooper? Yeah, it's weird, I know. But I do.
Anne Garrels: Naked in Baghdad : The Iraq War and the Aftermath as Seen by NPR's Correspondent
This ended up being beyond good. Thanks for the recommondation, Becky. I loved it. Ann Garrels does a good job of pointing out that we operate under such delusions when it comes to foreign policy.
Mark Bowden: Guests of the Ayatollah
It's about the Iran Hostage Crisis in 1979. I barely remember this. This book totally rocks. Bowden really did his homework.
Emma Larkin: Finding George Orwell in Burma
This book is as good as I expected it to be. Everyone should read this and 1984. Right Now. Today. I read this as a harbinger of things to come in this country if we don't do something.
Lance Armstrong: It's Not About The Bike
I re-read this recently. He's my hero.
Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King
Dave Matthews Band: Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King

How I could have omitted this I don't know. Love this cd. This cd turned me into a jazz fan.

I love the G Love
Various Artists: Music from the Motion Picture Swingers
Love the music. Love the movie.
Jack Johnson: In Between Dreams
Between his voice and Dave Matthews', I don't need anything else.

The best album of the 80s, according to Rolling Stone. I love it. I love the Clash.
Bob Marley: Legend
It's Bob. 'Nuff said
Dave Matthews Band: Stand Up
I really dig this cd. It took a while to grow on me, but I like it.
Audioslave: Out of Exile
Quite possibly the best album of last year. Saw them in concert - there aren't words to descibe it. Except to say mindblowing.
Giada De Laurentiis: Everyday Pasta
You just can't go wrong with Giada. I haven't had a probelm with one of her recipes. The Butternut Squash Tortelloni is rockin' good food.
Irma S. Rombauer: Joy of Cooking: 75th Anniversary Edition - 2006

My pizza dough recipe is in here. Along with my vegetable pot pie recipe. Yum.
Ina Garten: The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook
To me, this is the Bible of cooking. Forget Julia Child. Forget Emeril. Forget everyone else. I have made a dozen or so recipes and I haven't screwed anything up or had bad food yet. And this is coming from someone who refuses to cook anything without a recipe. Ina rocks!!!
Ina Garten: Barefoot Contessa at Home: Everyday Recipes You'll Make Over and Over Again
I've only tried one recipe in this book so far. And it was good. Her recipes are always good.

The Bible of baking. 'Nuff said.
Giada De Laurentiis: Everyday Italian: 125 Simple and Delicious Recipes
The turkey meatball recipe rocks. The Raspberry Tirmasu is good (I would suggest omitting the Grand Marnier - too much alcohol taste.)

Three words - Butternut Squash Lasagna
Ina Garten: Barefoot in Paris: Easy French Food You Can Make at Home
