Nellie Kerrison ‐ Relish Mama

215

"Beautiful food for the home - Great ingredients stirred with love and laughter." Relish Mama is a celebration of honest, everyday cooking, as shared by Nellie Kerrison in this much-awaited first cookbook. Every page has meaning and each recipe is a treasure trove of the food Nellie loves most to share with family, friends and through her acclaimed cooking school. What started as a little dream of teaching people to cook, to share her passion and knowledge with others and her warm and generous style of entertaining has grown into a beautifully written and photographed cookbook. With recipes for every occasion, you will relish this book and feel the love on each and every page of this stunning debut cookbook. A Note for the Author Food and gatherings were such an enormous part of my childhood. I fell joyously in love with entertaining and throwing parties when I first left home. I relish opening our door and sharing our table and a special meal with others. I love the celebration of honest everyday cooking and that is what my food is all about. When a meal is shared at our table or around our bench, the hectic pace stops! Not only do we enjoy the food and its many flavours, we stop and enjoy each other and all of the unique and incredible things that make us family and friends – how grateful I am that we came to find one another. Sharing food in this way brings a very special richness to my life – it is what make me….well, me. I opened ‘Relish Mama’ very early in 2009 by turning a lifelong dream and passion of offering some of the best cooking classes into a reality. Cliché, it seems, but I followed a dream and have never looked back. Relish Mama is all about celebrating the everyday. It is about celebrating a shared table and simple but honest ingredients with those that choose to share our large kitchen bench and table and those that leave feeling a little more enriched and hopefully, a little more loved, elated and confident. For me, good food and great home cooking is all about the passing on and sharing of knowledge with each other. Don’t hold it close to our chests – let’s share it. No matter how many restaurants I go to, nothing beats home style cooking prepared with love that is served at a table with those I love and who I can share a great laugh with - share myself with. This sort of sharing is good for the soul. It adds a little magic to our days. It is about so much more than the food but good food and a shared table is where the magic truly begins! Happy cooking to you all! Nellie Available Now

The story of a young convict, Solomon Blay, who became Her Majesty's hangman in Van Diemen's Land; the man who personally had to deliver an Empire's judgment on 200 men and women, and endured his own noose of personal demons and demonisation in order to "survive"; all in the context of the great struggles of good-evil, lifedeath, hope-despair, which drew the attention of Darwin, Twain, Trollope and Dickens as Van Diemen's Land evolved from a Hades of Evil to sow the seeds of nationhood. The book paints a vivid picture of the society and poverty from which Blay's character was forged in England and the desperate, brutal nature of being a convict in Van Diemen's Land. Solomon's Noose is an important book in exposing the dark 'underbelly' in the formation of modern Australia. Impressive research and a story that challenges the imagination -- except that it’s true. A prisoner elects to become a hangman -- to improve his lot in life. All this set against the Gothic world of Van Diemen’s Land in the time of convicts, bushrangers and rough justice. — Les Carlyon, best-selling author of Gallipoli and The Great War. From the furthest corner of that foreign country, the past, comes the haunting story of the convict who became the British Empire’s youngest executioner. Beware the shock of the true. — Andrew Rule, award-winning journalist and author. Author Information

Available Now Moses Tjalkabota Uraiakuraia, a proud Western Aranda man, was just a small boy when German Lutherans first entered his country in 1877. The founding of their mission at Hermannsburg (Ntaria) began a period of sweeping change for the Aranda. Tjalkabota came to embrace the Christian faith, taking the name Moses, and in turn was a teacher and guide the missionaries including Carl Strehlow, and later his son Ted (T.G.H.). He grew to local renown in his lifetime as the black 'messenger', a Christian evangelist of deep conviction. Tragedy dogged his life - the blindness that struck him in his thirties, the loss of all nine of his children and some of his grandchildren too, the many premature deaths of his countrymen, from violence (mostly internecine) and disease. Yet, till the end Moses remained an inspiring presence, unshaken in his belief and sense of mission, knowing that if his people were to survive, they had to change. As a child growing up in Hermannsburg Peter Latz was deeply impressed by this Aranda 'man of high degree'. Latz draws on his lifetime of experience amongst the Aranda and in their country, on archives, historical literature and Moses' own fascinating account of his life, to bring this remarkable story to the general reader. An Aboriginal evangelist and a blind one at that! People were amazed - here was one of their own bringing them God's word, a message of spiritual love. And before churches were built, worship happened in their country, in a riverbed, on the side of the hill, under a tree. There was connection and attachment straight away.

Thornton Walker is a mid career Melbourne based artist whose work is represented in collections in the British Museum and Aichi Prefectural Museum of Art, Nagoya, Japan and throughout Australia including the National Gallery of Australia, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Art Gallery of Western Australia, QUT Art Museum, Brisbane, Artbank, University of New South Wales, Philip Morris Arts Grant Collection: Parliament House, Canberra, Macquarie Bank, and AXA Australia. This book, curated by the artist in collaboration with Melbourne Books chronologically displays a representation of works from 1970 to 2015. The book includes essays by the prominent art academics and gallerist, Professor Sasha Grishin AM, FAHA,; Dr Patrick Hutchings and Guy Abrahams ‘Thornton Walker is an artist who is a teller of stories without a narrative. He is a staunchly figurative artist, but one who paints highly abstracted images. He is also a philosopher who meditates on the nature of the whole world, but does this by examining in exceptional detail a small fragment in a painting, contemplating a haiku or rediscovering part of an old photograph which has been stripped of its original context…. The best paintings by Thornton Walker are very much about “the spiritual rhythm … which pervades heaven and earth.’

New Title Release - August 2015 New From Steven Nowakowski Publishing Propelled by a deep sense of connection to this country, Steven Nowakowski has managed to carve a path with large format photography, a career enabling him to remain in tune with where his heart lies. Steven's inspiration has long been drawn from true wilderness photographers, Tasmanians Peter Dombrovskis and Olegas Truchanas. Dombrovskis and Truchanas were men not only magnificently talented behind the lens but of whom also carried a quiet, yet incredibly powerful message behind their work. Similarly, their vision at the time was to utilise the printed image to highlight the immeasurable vulnerability of a region they loved dearly, places vastly unknown and unseen by most. Indeed it was the compelling Dombrovskis photograph of Rock Island Bend that touched the conscious mind of the country during the campaign to save Tasmania's Franklin River in the early 80's from being dammed. All of Steven Nowakowski's large format photography remains the work of film; to him there is nothing quite the same. Not only does the understanding of such a camera slow one down and force you to fall in tune with your surroundings, but just as importantly it is the detail, sharpness and vibrancy of the finished product that is something still unachievable by the digital camera.

New Title Release - August 2015 Thirty years after leaving his home in the Lake District of England for life in Australia, Mark MacLean gathers together the remnants of his youthful possessions and ships them back to Australia. Five Boxes is the hilarious tale of unpacking those boxes of stuff: a story of lame trophies, mismatched collections, medieval dentistry, boring diaries, the village haircut, mopeds and submarines, school wine-tasting trips, politics, punk music and big sisters. But, mostly, this is a story of finding yourself. Following on from his bestselling A Year Down the Drain, Mark MacLean’s new book is a delightful reflection on life then and now. Media: Mark will be featured in “The Two of Us” column of the Sydney Morning Herald’s Good Weekend magazine in June– August. Newcastle Herald will also give coverage to the book. Author Information Mark MacLean is a writer who lives in Newcastle, NSW. His previous book, A Year Down the Drain: Walking Styx Creek from January to December, was a bestseller in Newcastle. He has been interviewed by Richard Fidler on ABC Radio’s Conversations program. Richard Fidler described A Year Down the Drain as “completely delightful”. His blog “Hamilton North” has a large following, and he was a runner up in the David Harold Tribe Fiction Award at The University of Sydney.

This book tells the story of author Mark MacLean’s year walking a concrete drain in suburban Newcastle with his cairn terrier, Jambo. The River Styx was the barrier between Earth and the Underworld in Greek mythology. In the mid‐nineteenth century the name was also given to a small creek in that ran along Newcastle’s western border. The story of what happened to Styx Creek and how it became a vast, straight “drain” that slices through the suburbs of Newcastle, forms the backdrop to this book. Equal parts diary, inquiry and observation, A Year Down the Drain invites you on a journey with the author into Newcastle's watery underworld. www.dennisjones.com.au Find us on Facebook Dennis Jones & Associates

“Charlotte stood mesmerised. The piece was beautiful, not only sexual but conveying the deep love the man felt for this woman and the growing child in her belly. A tear slid silently down her cheek as she stared at the sculpture. She felt starkly alone for a moment, and then tensed as she felt Daniel move behind her.” When Charlotte Ranleigh first laid eyes on Daniel Winterflood she was unprepared for the instantaneous jolt of lust that ran through her. Only a year had passed since the sudden death of her husband. Since that terrible day, the beautiful and talented young widow had been in self-imposed exile at her marital estate in the Southern Highlands, trying to make sense of her loss and blaming herself for the part she’d played in it. There were many things Charlotte believed were beyond her now — a happy marriage, children, and her dream of starting an art school at Ranleigh Park. Certainly, she’d never thought she’d desire anyone again, especially not the playboy art-dealer she’d only just met… “Her hand was tiny but her grip was firm and he held it for as long as it took to deliver the best knockout million dollar smile he could muster. God, how was he going to keep his promise after her overwhelming onslaught of all his senses?” Author Information Diana Thompson has long harboured the desire to become a writer, ever since she was a teenager sitting on the beach, sharing her dreams with her friends. A lifelong passion for reading and writing has resulted in Diana’s first novel Winterflood’s Passion coming to fruition in 2015. Diana is a true romantic, believing there is one incredible love out there for each and every one of us. Her writing reflects this with dominant themes of strong, sexy women; hunky yet tender and loving alpha males, and shared love and passion overcoming all obstacles. When she is not writing or reading romance novels, Diana leads a chaotic life dividing her time between a farm she shares with her husband in Braidwood NSW, known as “Baskerville Park” and named after her beloved Hungarian Viszla hounds, and her high–end jewellery store “Briolette” in Canberra, renowned for its award winning designs. Writing now consumes her every waking thought and Australian country life has a special place in her stories. Diana’s other pursuits include painting, gardening and cooking, especially entertaining family and friends at Baskerville Park.

Set in Queensland, this debut crime novel Double Madness by Caroline de Costa, takes us into a sordid underbelly of psycho‐sexual depravity. As local residents and authorities in Far North Queensland assess the damage in the aftermath of Cyclone Yasi, a woman's body is found in bizarre circumstances deep in the rainforest. Cass Diamond of Cairns CIB is on the team investigating the murder of fashionista Odile Janvier and it's not long before she uncovers a disturbing connection between the victim and the local medical profession. One of the pleasures of this novel is that de Costa is unafraid to spend time with the characters and the landscape, and Double Madness benefits from this soaking in. While never brutal or bloodthirsty, it nonetheless feels heavy with danger. Fiona Hardy is a bookseller at Readings Carlton and a committee member of the Australian Crime Writers Association Authentic and snappy. An assured debut into crime fiction by Caroline de Costa.

Charismatic photographer and ex‐ranger Jason McNeil lives and works in the iconic Daintree forest in Far North Queensland, the oldest surviving rainforest on the planet. Jason encounters the reclusive and awkward Swede Nils Bergstrom, who is searching for a cure for an horrific disease which he encountered in Africa, which also occurs in the Daintree. When Nils disappears, Jason, assisted by his girlfriend, Sunita, a masseuse at a Port Douglas resort, starts to ask questions. Jason and his friend Steve, a member of the local Yalanji people, head into the rainforest along the notorious CREB track and undertake a treacherous hike up Roaring Meg creek. They locate Nils but in tragic circumstances. Even though the police are now involved, Jason continues with his own investigation, which brings him into danger as he gradually exposes a web of competing interests. This entertaining and informative contemporary thriller explores the growing interest in biodiscovery and the modern crime of biopiracy, against the back‐drop of the beauty and challenges of the Daintree World Heritage site, a startling contrast to the laid‐back and popular resort world of Port Douglas.

Author Information Carolyn Little is a seventy‐one year old grandmother from Sydney, who has two sons and two granddaughters. For most of her career, Carolyn was a Head Science teacher at schools in Sydney. She has a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry and Mathematics, and a Master of Science degree in Astronomy. Carolyn fell in love with the area around Cairns and the Daintree while visiting her son, who gave her the idea of researching the Daintree ulcer as a subject for her book. She credits her Year Three teacher with the encouragement to be an author. It has only taken about sixty years to achieve this. Bergstrom’s Orange is Carolyn’s first novel. She is currently researching a second novel featuring Jason McNeil.

Sex for Groceries tells it like it is. From the first chapter, author Elizabeth Horsley bluntly discusses the problem of human satisfaction, quipping that “Being poor and happy sucks, but so does being rich and empty.” Throughout the rest of the book, she shares intimate details about her personal life, the way her career in the financial industry infused her with purpose, and the way she managed to blaze the trail she’d dreamt for herself as a child. Written with women in mind, there is no person who won’t benefit from the straightforward philosophy espoused by this first-time author. With chapters like Getting Real, Tear Up Your Bucket List, and Watch out for the Avalanche you won’t want to stop reading until well past bedtime. Horsley combines principles of finance, philosophy, and honesty into an action-based formula for happiness. Whether you’re unsure what there is to be happy about or just need reminding, Sex for Groceries doesn’t disappoint. Author Information Elizabeth Horsley is a professional investment banker with over 12 years’ experience in the finance industry. In less than 12 months, and at the young age of 33, Elizabeth has built a multi-million dollar fund. Elizabeth’s experience in the finance industry includes multiple roles, including mortgage broker, superannuation specialist and more recently as an entrepreneur and investment manager within her own finance company, ESC Principle Finance. Having achieved independent financial success, Elizabeth’s desire to invest and trade has ignited her to live in a way that she can give back to the community, leading to the notional development of holistic investment in society. Elizabeth’s passion to make positive, impactful changes and to mentor and encourage women to achieve meaningful, healthy lives inspired the book, “Sex for Groceries: A Book of Trades, Wealth and Happiness”. The book is a catalyst towards helping individuals discover the secrets to redefining their inner self with strategies for achieving emotional and financial happiness. Elizabeth uses her journey and knowledge of what it takes to build a successful business, find personal acceptance, achieve goals and identify individual values. It’s a how-to guide to living a values-based life by creating a Living List and making magic happen through the application of “trades” into everyday life. Elizabeth lives her life based on her values, and these are at the forefront of everything she does. Elizabeth is urging people to start living now by creating a Living List, rather than a Bucket List. This investment banker has now turned her entrepreneurial touch to creating a world where people are in touch with their values and have the skills to recognise what truly makes them feel like they are living.

The real estate industry is masterful at creating and promoting its own message as news. Have you ever heard an agent tell a buyer it is not the right time to buy? Real Estate Uncovered is designed to help you cut through the hype in order to make an informed decision while avoiding hidden traps and dirty tricks. These brutal strategies and their unsavoury tactics will be laid bare in Real Estate Uncovered. What you once viewed as normal real estate practice before reading this book will be viewed in an entirely new light. The book exposes a system that over quotes to sellers, conditions them into expecting less and then crunches them on pricing, profits on needless advertising and eventually uses a sales process that undersells the paying client's major asset. Buyers are given low false price quotes to entice them to an auction that they have no chance of winning, spending thousands of dollars on property inspection reports in the process. Real Estate Uncovered also highlights in a much fairer and more effective way to buy or sell. The reader will know how to identify their trusted real estate advisor having read Real Estate Uncovered.

Colonel Ian Hutchison was a revered soldier and one of the great figures in Australian military history. As Commanding Officer of the 2/3 Australian Infantry Battalion in the Battle of Eora Creek on the Kokoda Trail, he was thrust unexpectedly into command yet inspired his men to a smashing victory which was the turning point in the Kokoda Campaign. He continued to lead in further victories at Oivi, Soputa and Sanananda. In this important book, we learn the truth about the Battle of Eora Creek Ridge ('the Lost Battlefield') and why the magnitude of the victory has been covered up until now. What is the secret of Eora Creek that still haunts the Kokoda Campaign and is of national and international significance? We also learn of the influences and events which shaped Hutchison and prepared him for command in both the Second World War and the Korean War. Kokoda Secret examines Hutchison's career from the time he joined the Militia as a regimental cadet at the age of 16 in 1929 until his retirement in 1963, during which period his career mirrored the development of the twentieth‐ century Australian Army. Using ground‐breaking research, extensive private papers and detailed interviews, this unique biography provides a compelling portrait of Colonel Ian Hutchison and a definitive study of battalion command in war and peace. In particular, it is a must‐read for anyone interested in the truth of the Kokoda Campaign of 1942. It is also of immense significance in shedding new light on other key issues and campaigns including the Syrian Campaign, the Aitape‐ Wewak Campaign, the War Crime Trials in New Guinea, and the static

A Spacious Life Memoir of a Meditator

Ex Fleet Air Arm helicopter pilot Nick Evans didn't enjoy his childhood much, and service in the sectarian madness of Ulster later brought it all back. Nick chose to take his chances in a burgeoning exploratory business instead, and ends up in Iran flying for an American company not long after the shah's departure to Egypt. But in‐country relationships continue to deteriorate, and Nick is further perplexed when an Iranian naval friend from his Dartmouth days asks to be helped to disappear. Nick aids his friend, but this is then further complicated by his friend admitting to an estranged sister, who was working at the US Embassy when it was sacked. As the situation deteriorates further, Nick relises that not just his friend, but also he, is in danger now. Getting out of the country is not going to be easy.

What does a spiritual seeker look like? Could you pick one in a lineup? If you said yes, chances are you weren't imagining this meditating model. Born in Sydney, Australia, Narissa Doumani grew up well loved, well educated, and (reasonably) well dressed, but for years grappled with what she admits is 'the ultimate first world problem': how to be truly, deeply happy in any lasting way. In this intimate memoir, she explores the creative process, traverses the heights of romantic love and the despair of self‐doubt, and comes face to face with her own fragile mortality. But it's in a cave in a Thai forest, where she meets the Buddhist yogi who will become her spiritual guide, that she learns to unravel the messy states of mind and heart that had kept her from living a spacious life ‐ and thereby begins to uncover the happiness, meaning, and connection for which she always yearned. A Spacious Life is a heart‐warming, honest, and at times

Lavishly illustrated, full colour, the book includes: 1) Exploration of the colour wheel, colour range and values and the importance of light 2) How to use the different materials and methods, including watercolour, gouache, acrylic and oils. Features include using glazes, impasto, palette knife work, overpainting and underpainting. Finished artworks across a range of subject matter including landscapes, still life and portraits demonstrate the effects that can be achieved using the different methods.

Barrington Barber is a renowned authority on teaching drawing and a practising artist; in this fascinating practical art book he teaches readers how to understand the techniques at play in master drawings, from the likes of Michelangelo, Turner and Manet and then put them into practice. Clearly structured and practical, the book helps the enthusiastic draughtsman achieve his ultimate aim: to draw like the great artists of history.

In a time and place where the gulf between the haves and the have-nots has grown painfully wide, Olivia lives a life cushioned with abundance. Until the day she is kidnapped and held for ransom by Hannah, a girl from a very different kind of life. Olivia discovers a taste for things not commonly condoned in her world: black-market books, daring friends, wild creativity. From the depths of factory oppression to the dizzying heights of vigilante rooftops, Olivia travels the margins of society, where the misfits gather and build homes for themselves out of whatever they can get their hands on – and fight to make a life worth living. Author Information Mary lives in Melbourne and has a lot of tattoos. Her two main genres of fiction writing are erotica and dark Young Adult fantasy/supernatural, and she also occasionally puts her creaky old Media Studies degree to good use and writes pop culture analysis, too. Thrive - Mary's much anticipated YA speculative fiction adventure is now available. And Thrive is one of those YA novels suitable for ALL ages - 15 to 105. Mary has a story in Q : the Queermance anthology, as well as the erotic titles Loveless, Min Min Lights and Vanilla. Masquerading as Isobel Dorian she is also the co-author, with Cara Donovan, of Table for Three. Mary is also the author of The Devil's Mixtape, and The Wolf House, a five-book series.

How did she find her way to the top?

How did the man on our $20 note make our big country smaller?

Twin baby gods with extraordinary powers from birth; twin boys brought up by a wolf, whose quarrel will one day make the greatest city in the world: from the pen of multi‐award winning author Ursula Dubosarsky comes this fresh and lively retelling of two great myths from Greece and Rome, re‐ imagined fro young readers, and illustrated in gorgeous classical style by David Allan.

Two beautiful traditional Scottish fairy tales, The Selkie Bride and In the Kingdom of the Seals, are brought to enchanting and haunting new life by two creators who are themselves eerily linked to the magical world of the shape‐shifting selkies, who are seals in the water and humans on land. For Kate's ancestors were the McPhees, who, legend says, are descended from the union of Dougal McPhee and his melancholy selkie bride, while Fiona's McDonald ancestors, lairds of the Western Isles, have a strange connection to the McPhees as well, a connection she only discovered while working on the book! 'The tales, told by an author with an obvious talent for folklore, would make an excellent choice for young readers looking for a unique alternative to standard titles, and would be a beautiful introduction to the rich world of folktales.' (Junior Bookseller and Publisher, Term 1 2014) Coming soon: Two Tales of Twins from Ancient Greece and Rome, retold by Ursula Dubosarsky, illustrated by David Allan (August
