Are celebrity cookbooks ‘culinary’?

By Keri | June 18, 2014

Americans love cookbooks, and this is especially apparent in recent years. In 1961, 49 cookbooks were published. In 2001, more than 1,700 were published, with an astounding 530 million books on food and alcohol sold in the U.S. in 2000. Furthermore, cookbooks are the only genre of print books to maintain sales after 9/11 and to increase in sales during the 2009 recession.

‘Palo Alto’ opens Friday at The Hipp

By Niko Pifferetti | June 4, 2014

Gia Coppola’s directorial debut, “Palo Alto,” opening tomorrow at the Hippodrome State Theatre, is in some ways a mix of “Mean Girls” and “The Catcher in the Rye.” It’s a coming-of-age film that frankly addresses the sex, drugs, despondency and debauchery of adolescence, while at the same time mourning the loss of its characters’ childhoods.

Hundred Waters, a band from Gainesville, released their latest album "The Moon Rang Like A Bell" last week.

Gainesville band Hundred Waters makes waves

By Patrick Glynn | June 4, 2014

Hundred Waters, a band formed in 2011 with roots in Gainesville, has covered genres from electronic to indie to folk to hip-hop with their tempos and drums over their last couple projects. Though their self-titled album, released in 2012, introduced the ability to cover those genres, the band’s most recent effort, “The Moon Rang Like A Bell,” enhanced and honed in on those sounds.

Food and memory: Mention ‘Proust’s madeleines’ like a pro

By Kelsi | June 4, 2014

Food is more than just nutrients. Food conjures up memories and reveals who we are and who we are not. What we eat is a medium for personal recollection and collective identity. Marcel Proust, the great French author, is famous for connecting food and memory with madeleines, “those squat plump little cakes.” We certainly have him to thank for those little packages of “petite French cakes” at every Starbucks checkout.
