Cuando la vida te da limones… es un viaje gastronómico y cultural que sitúa al limón en el centro del segundo volumen de la colaboración de TASCHEN con The Gourmand, la revista donde comida y arte se cruzan constantemente.

Este orbe amarillo, aparentemente simple, revela una historia llena de giros, desde su papel en los jardines renacentistas vinculados a los Medici hasta su capacidad para proteger del escorbuto, su relación con episodios inesperados de la historia social, y su uso como tinta invisible desde el año 600 d. C. El libro traza la genealogía de esta fruta y explora su presencia como recurso literario en autores como Joan Didion, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tom Wolfe y James Joyce, además de su imaginario ligado al sueño americano a través de los puestos de limonada.

El limón también ha sido un motivo recurrente en el arte, desde naturalezas muertas clásicas hasta la inspiración de figuras modernas como Picasso, Matisse o Warhol. Su influencia se extiende al diseño y a la cultura material, con iconos como el Juicy Salif de Philippe Starck o el Jif Lemon, y aparece en artes decorativas, papeles pintados Arts and Crafts o cerámicas de temática mitológica. Con prólogo del chef Simon Hopkinson e introducción de Jennifer Higgie, el volumen se completa con más de 60 recetas con un toque de limón de cocinas de todo el mundo, desde aves y salsas hasta cócteles y postres, fotografiadas en exclusiva por Bobby Doherty.

"Cozy & Chic: The Perfect Cow Print Faux Fur Throw Blanket!"
Color: Black Ombre White (Faux Fur Bubble + Flannel), Size: Twin (60" x 80")
I recently purchased the cow print faux fur throw blanket, and it has quickly become one of my favorite home accessories! This throw is absolutely beautiful and adds a stylish touch to my couch. Not only is it visually appealing, but it is also incredibly soft and cozy. I find myself wanting to curl up with it on the couch and even take it to bed with me! The quality is outstanding, and it feels luxurious against the skin. Whether I'm watching TV or reading a book, this throw is the perfect companion. It's both practical and decorative, making it a fantastic addition to any home. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a warm, stylish blanket!

Wrapped in luxury
Color: Cream (Double-sided Faux Fur Bubble), Size: Twin (60" x 80")
I went through a lot of faux fur throws and blankets to find this gem. It’s double sided fur and very warm and cozy. My only gripe is that it’s not wider but it measures true to its size. It’s super soft and fluffy. Would highly recommend this blanket as you’ll be wrapped in luxury.

Amazing and luxurious
Color: Cream (Double-sided Faux Fur Bubble), Size: Twin (60" x 80")
My daughter said this blanket can be described as luxury. It is soft, plush, and warm. It does slip and slide some, so just be aware that it can do that

Super soft, looks and feels lovely
Color: Cream (Double-sided Faux Fur Bubble), Size: Throw (50" x 60")
LThis is a double sided faux fur blanket (with sides have the same slightly bubbled fur. It iz slightly bubbled looking, not as bubbly as the picture makes it seem. The two sides are sealed around the edge, but not sewn or tied in anyway throughout the blanket, so the two sides are free to move on theinside of the. Blanket. It is extremely soft, and my dog, who is old and going blind actively seeks out this particular blanket to make his nest in. He loves it, and so do I. I got it discounted in white, a d know at some point it won't look white any.ore. I'll try to die it after it gets a little grungy looking. Till then, it looks and feels luxurious. I only wish it were joined together in the middle, and more "bubbly" looking. It's a bit heavy by itself for summer nights, but feels warm down cozy in colder times. I got the throw size, it seems a bit smaller than I expected it to be.
