Cleric? You mean, like a religious leader?

In Beach House Baking: An Endless Summer of Delicious Desserts, pastry chef Lei Shishak shares her most popular recipes for morning treats, cupcakes, crisps, cookies, pies, ice cream sandwiches, frozen pops, and beverages from her celebrated Sugar Blossom Bake Shop in the charming beach town of San Clemente, California.

At her shop, Chef Lei serves up familiar treats that offer so much more than a sweet dining experience. Inspired by her beach town location and her love of the sand-and-surf lifestyle, she creates high-quality, made-from-scratch desserts that transport you to the islands and resorts you’ve always hoped to visit.

Lei’s recipes in Beach House Baking are designed to take you on an island vacation, turning the task of baking into a virtual journey to a beachside paradise, filled with the sounds and aromas of the places you can go to just get away from it all!

It was a D&D joke. Wights are evil undead creatures that can be turned away by clerics of a certain level.

It was the same book as the one 12 days ago. Perhaps that means that there may be a markdown again. I'll try to keep my eyes peeled for that, for those who weren't able to catch it free then and/or now.

Question. Why do you put the U.S. Amazon URL before the other countries', including the U.K., when you live in (and are a citizen of?) the U.K.? I'm not saying that that's not the way that it should be (hahaha), I'm just wondering why you do it.

Oh, thanks for the post. I was able to get the first one; I already had the second one.

I grabbed that college cookbook.
The first 20% was excerpts from "self-help" books by "other" people.
The intros to the recipes were rather insulting to the reader.
It wasn't worth the price paid. Note I got it free.

Maybe the next one that you come across like that, they'll pay you to take it. ha

Possible "Next ones" include

The Prison Cookbook: A Cookbook for Prison Inmates Full of Delicious Recipes that You can Cook in a Microwave Oven! (Microwave Cookbooks 1)

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Prison-Cookb...dp/B013H0ZV80/

The Kindle Microwave Cookbook: Gourmet Entrees, Breakfasts and Desserts that you can make in 5 minutes!

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kindle-Micro...dp/B013INKUO6/

I put the Amazon.com URL first because I expect most readers to want it (it was once the only Kindle store and is still the 'mother ship') including non-US residents who don't have a country store or who want to pay in dollars or prefer to use the English language. These see a different selection of books to allow for different geographical restrictions.

Random reactions to this book post:

• Don't give Teresa Giudice (more) ideas (she's written three best-selling cookbooks and while incarcerated is writing a memoir)
• Not surprised Martha Stewart didn't "go there" with a book, even though while incarcerated as BOP Prisoner # 55170-054 she got media coverage addressing jailhouse microwave cooking
• The book's price implies it's targeting not prisoners but those who love them
• Far cry from Phil Leotardo (and Tony B's Rasta friend of a friend)'s grilled cheese sandwiches made on a prison radiator
• Wowza, there's a boatload of books about microwave cooking in prison. I'm surprised I'm surprised, given: (1) America's prison industrial complex is huge and growing, and (2) microwaving food is a regular occurrence on Orange Is the New Black

That's thoughtful of you. I thought that that might be the reason. It's nice of you to include countries other than the U.K. at all. I don't have a similar practice for my posts. Maybe I should. ATDrake is good about doing that.

Thanks.

Do prisoners in some prisons in the U.S. have their own microwaves, or do most, if not all, have them in common areas where they can use them? How about the U.K.? Years (30 or 40) ago, it was common in the U.S. to hear people be critical of prisoners having color TVs in their cells. I don't hear that anymore, I don't know why.
