Big Lebowski Amazon Cook Book Launch

The Big Lebowski, one of the greatest cult movies of all time, has hit home with food lovers across America. Many of the “greatest hits” of America’s favourite foods are in the book.  The recipes are mostly quick and easy to make and tasty and with the budget conscious in mind.
The best of the Big Lebowski scenes and characters are captured by imaginative recipe titles with funny twists, such as “Dude’s Chocolate Kahlua Sauce,” “Crazy Wings,” and “Gooey Chop-Meat.”
The Big Lebowsi and philosophy are always closely tied in, and this is not ignored by what may seem on the surface to be just another cookbook. But don’t judge this book by its cover. This isn’t just a book of easy Super Bowl recipes – it aims to make great food easy and cheap to make, so people can spend less time cooking and more time enjoying the food with their friends and loved ones.
“Got Any Kahlua – The Collected Recipes of The Dude” will be a big hit with
Achievers everywhere (the name the cult movie’s followers have adopted). Not
just a recipe book, it involves the philosophy of The Dude and forms a small
cookery course in itself – penned by New Yorke writer, Daniel Bellino Zwicke, a
wine and restaurant professional for over 20 years.
The
Big Lebowski movie was a phenomenon that shot Jeff Bridges to messiah status in
1998 and starred an eclectic mix of movie stars. It seems appropriate that such
a mix of fun and flavoursome foods has been chosen to remind us of its
greatness. 
This recipe book is almost ghost written by The Dude himself, and Daniel describes
the book: “Dude has collected a lifetime of wonderful recipes, like, Dudes Cowboy
Chili, Gooey Chop Meat, Da Fino’s Meatballs, and more. Dude will teach you
how to make a tasty Taco, Burrito, Ramen, Tuna-Fish Sandwich or whatever
your little Achiever Heart desires. Being The Dude, all these recipes are Easy,
Economical, and of course Tasty! The Dude wouldn’t have it any other way.
And the Dude wants to help you and guide you along the way to a beautiful journey
as you cook along with The Dude, you will always Abide!”
If the movie’s nuances have escaped you in the past, you can stop wondering what
is the Big Lebowski about, and start enjoying social gatherings without fuss
whenever you have the guys around for the football game.
“Got Any Kahlua: Collected Recipes of The Dude” is available in both paperback
and digital format on your local Amazon store now.

EDWARD HOPPER

EDWARD HOPPER
Study for “OFFICE at NICE’

Pencil on Paper


Edward Hopper painted American landscapes and cityscapes with a disturbing truth, expressing the world around him as a chilling, alienating, and often vacuous place. Everybody in a Hopper picture appears terribly alone. Hopper soon gained a widespread reputation as the artist who gave visual form to the loneliness and boredom of life in the big city. This was something new in art, perhaps an expression of the sense of human hopelessness that characterized the Great Depression of the 1930s.
    Edward Hopper has something of the lonely gravity peculiar to Thomas Eakins, courageous fidelity to life as he feels it to be. He also shares Winslow Homer’s power to recall the feel of things. For Hopper, this feel is insistently low-key and ruminative. He shows the modern world unflinchingly; even its gaieties are gently mournful, echoing the disillusionment that swept across the country after the start of the Great Depression in 1929. Cape Cod Evening(1939) should be idyllic, and in a way it is. The couple enjoy the evening sunshine outside their home, yet they are a couple only technically and the enjoyment is wholly passive as both are isolated and introspective in their reveries. Their house is closed to intimacy, the door firmly shut and the windows covered. The dog is the only alert creature, but even it turns away from the house. The thick, sinister trees tap on the window panes, but there will be no answer.

NIGHTHAWKS

HOPPER’S Most FAMOUS PAINTING

Paintings such as Nighthawks (1942) convey a mood of loneliness and desolation by their emptiness or by the presence of anonymous, non-communicating figures. But of this picture Hopper said: `I didn’t see it as particularly lonely… Unconsciously, probably, I was painting the loneliness of a large city.’ Deliberately so or not, in his still, reserved, and blandly handled paintings Hopper often exerts a powerful psychological impact — distantly akin to that made by the Metaphysical painter de Chirico; but while de Chirico’s effect was obtained by making the unreal seem real, Hopper’s was rooted in the presentation of the familiar and concrete.

The ROLLING STONES

The Influence And Legacy of The ROLLING STONES … World’s Greatest Rock Band Ever !!


The Rolling Stones are widely recognized as one of the most influential rock n’ roll bands of all time. They have become the favorite band of generations and generations of fans who love rock n’roll music, from grandparents to parents to their kids, and even in some cases their children! It’s amazing how music can speak to all kinds of age groups, no matter how old it is.
The Rolling Stones are a British rock band that was formed during the early 1960s. The band we know today consists of four members, but the original line-up was made up of six members in total – Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Brian Jones, Bill Wyman, Ian Stewart and Charlie Watts. Jagger and Richards have almost always been known as the anchors of the band, as they are the chief songwriters and faces of the band, and really lend a lot of personality and spunk to the group. The band first became popular in their native Europe, but as rock n’roll music spread across the world, particularly British groups, they gained mass popularity in the United States as well. The band has released a whopping, unbelievable 22 albums in total, with over 200 million copies sold worldwide – and they continue to produce new music! Their last new studio album with brand new, previously unreleased content was A Bigger Bang, released in 2005.
When the Rolling Stones first came out, they were marketed and sold to listeners as the antithesis of the Beatles, in an effort to set themselves apart from the equally, if not more popular group who were also British and played rock music. They wanted to be seen as the wilder, crazier and more independent band, as if the Beatles were a more manufactured pop group than anything else. The bands manager also got rid of Ian Stewart as a member of the group, because he felt his image did not fit the Rolling Stones look. While the Stones originally recorded others’ songs in an effort to impress fans and garner popularity, it wasn’t until they began singing, playing and recording their own original material that they really took off.
The Rolling Stones’ first big song was ‘Satisfaction’, which spent a month at the top of the music charts, establishing them as a serious act with great music. They continued to release chart-topping hits and establish themselves as one of the greatest rock acts, touring around the world and releasing records throughout the 1960s. They also cemented their rebellious, bad boy image with incidents of drug use, overdoses, hard partying and arrests wherever they went. They also had their fair pick of beautiful women, as women of all ages and nationalities wanted a piece of this famous, good looking rock band. In 1969, one of the main members who had been a large part of the band since the beginning, Brian Jones, drowned in his pool. They played a free concert in his memory.For the past nearly 50 years, the Rolling Stones have been a huge influence on rock n’ roll music and popular culture.
