America's Test Kitchen

There is nothing that we enjoy more than being able to scroll through our IG feed and to see charcuterie boards and how we can make them our own! In Boards: Stylish Spreads for Casual Gatherings, we have the blueprint of how we can do this for our friends, family or when we want one solo to enjoy during our next show!

ATK's food stylist and expert, Elle Simone Scott shares how we can make our own as well as to keep them looking fresh all night long! This book has over 35 boards and includes 150 recipes that you can build your board around. It'll also stir your imagination as boards can be as creative as you want and include a diversity of foods to enjoy.

Regardless of the board being presented, she shares the balance between texture, flavor and visual appeal. We enjoyed seeing the customizable baked potato board, DIY Bloody Mary board and even a grilled platter! You'll find boards for snacking as well as those that are meant to be enjoyed as a meal.

We also love that you can make your own, buy items from a store and arrange it or do a mixture of the two.

He tries to go after the kind of success that he knows his family want for him; however, he's more interested in Anita Dayal who lives in his neighborhood.

He learns that she is in possession of a storied alchemical potion derived from stolen gold. This "lemonade" has the ability to obtain the ambition of the gold's original owner. He realizes that this could be his chance. His effort to achieve this results in tragedy for his community. Years later, he resides in the Bay Area and still feels the weight of expectations outside of himself by his community.
