Every business, large and small, should have a current contingency plan when emergencies or disasters strike – whether man-made or natural – to minimize risk and limit damage.

Smoke Gets in Your Eyes & other lessons from the crematory is a collection of personal stories and lessons learned by Caitlin Doughty, a current mortician, writing about her time as a crematory operator in California. It sounds pretty morbid, and at times it is, but it’s also entertaining, funny at times, and refreshingly honest. I learned a lot about the death industry and what happens behind the curtains. I’m sure I’m not the only one to wonder.

As a follow-up to her successful 2018 book Girl, Wash Your Face author, motivational speaker and blogger Rachel Hollis has published another best seller, Girl, Stop Apologizing: A Shame-Free Plan for Embracing and Achieving Your Goals.  

I have the perfect summertime book for you.   Ripe: a fresh, colorful approach to fruits and vegetables, by Cheryl Sternman Rule, photography by Paulette Philpot, definitely rates as one of my favorite books. I know what you’re thinking—it’s a cookbook. Yes. It is. This book is beautiful, informative, fun and very useful. Every page is gorgeous. The photographs are simply stunning and a pleasure to read.
