Kitchen Komforts is filled with dishes that are down-home and down-right good food that bring warmth to your heart and a smile to your face. Each recipe has been personally tested indeed cooked and served by LuLu herself. Her Sausage and Hash Brown Casserole is, as she says, "a real crowd pleaser!" Or try her best hostess gift recipe for Chocolate Cheesecake Squares. Crock Pot Chops were "always a nice dinner to come home to after a long day of shooting Hee Haw," and Tex Mex Potato Corn Chowder "is a great comfort food with all my favorite ingredients.

Understanding His plan for her has been a long road filled with many highs and lows. Having grown up in an orphanage from age three to eighteen, LuLu has always had to face her own demons of feeling unworthy and unloved. Her life has not always been laughs, applause, and awards. In Kitchen Komforts she opens her heart to her fans through inspirational stories of how God has worked in her life."

A Shocking Look at Feminism's Patron SaintMargaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, has been the subject of adoring television dramas and enthusiastic biographies, but her life and work were anything but inspiring. Killer Angel is a close-up look at Sanger that brings to light much that has been ignored or suppressed in most of the films and books that are available today.Sanger’s personal life was marked by tumult and immorality. The views underlying her formation of the American Birth Control League (renamed Planned Parenthood after World War II) were racist and White Supremacist. Her personal friend and advisor Ernst Rudin, Adolph Hitler’s director of genetic sterilization, was deeply involved in the American Birth Control League. And she hated all religion, Christianity in particular. These are just a few of the revelations to be found in this revised edition of a work that has opened many eyes to aspects of Sanger’s work that have been largely ignored until now.
