      It's 8 pm and you just got home from work. What's for dinner? Perhaps a delicious bowl of cold cereal awaits. Or maybe you could order Chinese food -- for the third time this week. Who wants to slave over a hot stove after slaving for a wage all day? No matter how late you work or how fast you eat, Bob Sloan has a recipe for you. Quicker than you can change the toner in the fax machine, you can make a Fast and Furious Stir-Fry. If the thought of washing dishes makes your eyes glaze over, whip up a one-pot meal like Paella Rapido. Need lunch for tomorrow? A Lazy Man's Lasagna makes for plenty of leftovers. The Working Stiff Cookbook has colorful tabs for fast flipping, a spiral binding for easy viewing, and laminated pages for no-fuss cleanup. A smart addition to any kitchen, this is the one cookbook that will earn its keep in painless and delicious weekday meals.

      The stuff of men's lives is sublimely catalogued in this entertaining look at the clever, indispensable and occasionally foolish paraphernalia men routinely used in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s for grooming, smoking, eating, drinking and other essential activities. Includes 150 color illustrations of typical men's trappings of the day.
