Malibu's Cooking Again


Book Description

You've been invited to come to dinner in Malibu, to go behind the scenes, right into the kitchen & to stand alongside the cook. You might be surprised at what you will find there. Sure, there's glamour, a touch of Hollywood, recipes & food from famous restaurants, but you will also find caring friends, dedicated firefighters, community activists & a lot of hard-working, family-centered "just plain folks". MALIBU'S COOKING AGAIN was inspired by the many cooks who wanted to replace cookbooks & recipes lost in the November firestorms when close to 400 homes in Malibu burned to the ground. But through stories sprinkled throughout this special book, MALIBU'S COOKING AGAIN also illustrates a certain indomitable spirit which has been born out of this inferno, celebrates the heroism & the kindness shown by individuals during the tragic event & heralds the resurgence of a sense of "community" in a small town shaken by a natural disaster. With its stories, full color photographs & complete selection of recipes from Appetizers to Desserts, MALIBU'S COOKING AGAIN will catch the attention & warm the hearts of your readers. Proceeds from the sale of MALIBU'S COOKING AGAIN are being donated to Operation Recovery, a local non-profit group benefiting Malibu fire victims.

Barbra Streisand is by any account a living legend, a woman who in a career spanning six decades has excelled in every area of entertainment. She is among the handful of EGOT winners (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony) and has one of the greatest and most recognizable voices in the history of popular music. She has been nominated for a Grammy 46 times, and with Yentl she became the first woman to write, produce, direct, and star in a major motion picture. In My Name Is Barbra, she tells her own story about her life and extraordinary career, from growing up in Brooklyn to her first star-making appearances in New York nightclubs to her breakout performance in Funny Girl (musical and film) to the long string of successes in every medium in the years that followed. The book is, like Barbra herself, frank, funny, opinionated, and charming. She recounts her early struggles to become an actress, eventually turning to singing to earn a living; the recording of some of her acclaimed albums; the years of effort involved in making Yentl; her direction of The Prince of Tides; her friendships with figures ranging from Marlon Brando to Madeleine Albright; her political advocacy; and the fulfillment she’s found in her marriage to James Brolin. No entertainer’s memoir has been more anticipated than Barbra Streisand’s, and this engrossing and delightful book will be eagerly welcomed by her millions of fans.
