Captain Jack Two Sugars is a Tugboat Captain adored by his family and admired by his community. A very strong but quiet and private man, he comes alive when he tells his fantastic stories. Stories about his adventures at sea; sailing the world with exotic cargoes and his time deep sea fishing in the North Sea. During the 2nd World War Captain Jack sailed the deadly Atlantic convoys and later throughout the Aegean Sea and yet, his greatest adventure in Greece, he always refused to even talk about. What happened to Captain Jack during his time on the Greek island of Paxos and what was he doing with a beautiful statue of a Greek marble Goddess gifted to him by the grateful islanders? There were clues all around, but it took the discovery years later, of a secret tale to reveal the truth and the real man behind the story. A truly heart warming tale of adventure, bravery and family values. Discover the real man behind the stories and the reason why the Captain always had two sugars in his tea!

A captivating journey through off-the-beaten-path French wine country with 100 simple yet exquisite recipes, 150 sumptuous photographs, and stories inspired by life in a small village. “Francophiles, this book is pure Gallic food porn.”—The Wall Street Journal Readers everywhere fell in love with Mimi Thorisson, her family, and their band of smooth fox terriers through her blog, Manger, and debut cookbook, A Kitchen in France. In French Country Cooking, the family moves to an abandoned old château in Médoc. While shopping for local ingredients, cooking, and renovating the house, Mimi meets the farmers and artisans who populate the village and learns about the former owner of the house, an accomplished local cook. Here are recipes inspired by this eccentric cast of characters, including White Asparagus Soufflé, Wine Harvest Pot au Feu, Endives with Ham, and Salted Butter Chocolate Cake. Featuring evocative photographs taken by Mimi’s husband, Oddur Thorisson, and illustrated endpapers, this cookbook is a charming jaunt to an untouched corner of France that has thus far eluded the spotlight.
