Fallen Apple by Dr. R. Y. Langham

Delilah Kennedy never wanted her daughter, Corrine. She blames Corrine for the rift in her marriage to Corrine's father, Randolph. Delilah was once the "belle of the ball" but now Corrine is the "apple" of everyone's eye and she is left out in the cold. Delilah will go to any costs to maintain the affluent lifestyle that she is built with Randolph including getting rid of her own daughter. As the years go by and Corrine grows up she begins to understand the magnitude of her mother's hatred towards her and her feelings of insecurity and loss quickly turn into anger, revenge and violence. It is at that point that Corrine vows to make sure that her mother realizes that all the pain and suffering that she endured as a child will not go unpaid. Corrine's mission is to show Delilah that the apple really doesn't fall far from the tree. But when all is said and done who will be the victor-Corrine or Delilah?

The Comfort of Apples

The idea for The Comfort of Apples came to chefs Philip and Lauren Rubin when, after an afternoon spent picking apples at a local orchard, they looked at each other and wondered, “What do we do with them?” With the abundance of apples filling farmer’s markets, supermarket produce sections, and orchards every fall, it is a rare soul who doesn’t wind up with a veritable bounty of apple varieties filling their larder for at least several months out of the year. And yet many cooks don’t realize that apples have infinite cooking applications beyond sauces, crisps, and pies. As this beautifully illustrated book shows, they can be julienned raw in a salad; poached whole in wine; used in the form of cider as a deglazing or braising liquid; fermented into warm drinks; or juiced and turned into sorbet. The list goes on.
