Just Roll with It; Recipes for Easy Embossed Cookies is a simple guide and playful companion for successfully using your engraved rolling pins. Stacy Krems, owner of the Colorado home-based business Sweet Rolling Pins, shares a wealth of recipes and essential tips for making the perfect rolling pin cookies from scratch. Stacy loves sharing her secrets for producing perfect embossed cookies and provides many surprising innovations to make cookies fun and exciting. In Just Roll with It, however, Stacy points out that more important than perfect cookies is simply the time we spend together in the kitchen with those we love. "I love baking," Stacy says, "because it reminds me of endless summer days spent in the kitchen with my grandmother. Her hair in curlers, Crisco in hand, and we'd bake for hours. It wasn't the baking itself that was so special, it was simply the time spent with her. It's those precious moments I would love to have back now that she is gone. I feel like our rolling pins are a conduit for that, getting in the kitchen and making memories with someone you love. Even if the cookies burn, that doesn't matter. What matters is the time spent together, creating special memories. That is my wish for everyone who uses one of our Sweet Rolling Pins, and who reads this book!"

In Jack Knox: Learning Life's Lessons with Stock Dogs famed herding dog trainer Jack Knox retraces his steps from learning to use Border Collies to tend sheep as a lad in the border region of Scotland to becoming one of the foremost characters in the stock dog world in America today. Jack's many notable accomplishments, like being inducted into the American Border Collie Association Hall of Fame, are overshadowed in this memoir...rather, it is his love for the dogs he has known and a genuine appreciation for what they have taught him in life that Jack humbly shares. Above all, Jack's unique approach to training herding dogs is revealed in this book-a special way with dogs seldom seen in practice that stresses freedom for a dog over the tight control tactics so frequently practiced with herding dogs today, especially the freedom for a dog to make mistakes and thereby learn to become a willing partner with a person when working stock. Join Jack as he journeys through a life with dogs that has brought him profound insights, great joy, and a distinctive approach to training that allows herding dogs to bloom to their best abilities.
