Best-selling winner of the Houghton Mifflin Literary Fellowship Award, "Chocolate Days, Popsicle Weeks" tells the love story of Fitzie and Janice Fitzpatrick, Silent-Generation Boston Irish Catholics who run away to make it big in New York in the Sixties. "An oft-told tale" one reviewer noted, "but not the way Hannibal tells it. ... Again and again, I felt those frissons of pleasure which superior writing always sends down my back." How these not-so-silent, resilient young lovers manage to save their marriage from the wrecking-ball of Success makes for exhilarating reading-in what the Library Journal called "A great book."

A sweet, mostly vegan collection of chocolate treats from the founders of Not Your Sugar Mamas. You think you love chocolate, but do you know how much you could actually love it? In Chocolate Every Day, Bennett and Ky show chocolate for what it really is: a delicious and incredibly potent, antioxidant powerhouse filled with vitamins and nutrients. Their decadent recipes do away with the refined sugar, dairy, and gluten found in traditional chocolate treats, and instead rely on raw cacao and high-quality, unprocessed ingredients to create snacks and desserts you can actually feel good about eating. By combining raw cacao with organic, natural sweeteners, nutrient-rich fats, and superfoods like maca and lucuma, Bennett and Ky's delicious treats pack a real health punch--and are as decadent as their traditional counterparts. Filled with tips and tricks for deciphering chocolate certifications and labels, a guide to building a superfood pantry, and more than seventy-five recipes for delectable and irresistible sweets, like Fudgsicles, No-Bake Thin Mints, Mexican Chocolate Cashew Milk, and Crunchy Salty Peanut Butter Chocolate Tart, Chocolate Every Day will give you more reasons than ever before to indulge in this beloved flavor.

Praise for The Days I Dream of Chocolate... "The Days I Dream of Chocolate” is a cozy read. The overall thematics can be understood by and are relatable to anyone; any reader can find something to take away. The allusions and, often, the diction are quite charming and occasionally quite clever." ~ Matt, Editor, FlukyFiction "Unique, engaging and definitely a piece of work that is strong and memorable. Each poem here is different, not one even verges on being the same, and the contextual nature of the poems means there is so much more in the depths of these poems than what is first noticed when read. I think - and I hope - that this book will be a piece of work others reference when writing from different points of view." ~ Rhys Milsom, Poet Description: The Days I Dream of Chocolate is a collection of poems that focuses on the different facets of love, from falling in love to growing into self-love, and everything in between. Great for those moments of pure infatuation, or simply to relive the sensations of love all over again, this collection will leave you with a flutter in your heart and a deeper appreciation of what it means to LOVE. No assembly necessary, some chocolate required.
