Tax Trivia and Tasty Recipes!

A newspaper food columnist, wife, mother and political activist, Susie Iventosch is also the author of the combination cookbook and tax facts volume titled Tax Bites & Tasty Morsels, Who's Been Eating My Pie? She wrote the book as a way to combine her favorite pastime and her worst pet peeve. The result is a real cookbook, with a large helping of politics and a smorgasbord of tax trivia. Every recipe is accompanied by a "tax bite" an interesting tidbit about some of the wacky taxes we pay and the programs they fund. The family that dines together, learns together. That's what Susie Iventosch, activist and author of Tax Bites & Tasty Morsels, Who's Been Eating My Pie? (www.taxbitesandtastymorsels.com ), thinks is the key to getting America back on track with regards to balancing the budget and relieving the tax burden that is breaking the backs of many families. "An aware and educated citizen understands the need to vote and to contribute to society, and that's a message we need -- now more than ever -- to pass on to our children," Iventosch said. "That's why I combine my interest in politics and tax issues with enjoying meals with my family. My mission is to get America back to traditional values in two areas: Socially, families need to turn off the computers and the TV and start sitting down to meals together again, and politically, people need to start getting active again to help reduce the size of government and the overwhelming tax burden facing Americans over the next decade."

Marilyn Randall is a retired award-winning author and veteran graphic artist whose passion is for helping to restore traditional values to the next generation of our children. Click. You're my friend. Click You're not. That's what social networks like Facebook are teaching our children about the value of friendship, and Marilyn Randall thinks it could potentially ruin how they manage friendships and relationships when they get older. She believes these online sites are teaching kids that friends are disposable, interchangeable items that can be added or subtracted with a simple click of the mouse. "When I see children with their heads buried in laptops, or texting on cell phones, it disturbs me to think how technology has changed the way our children socialize," said Randall, who has authored a series of children's books about friendships, including For Faithful Friends, The Best of Best Friends and Share From The Heart (www.marilynrandall.com). "With our social networks, we are actually raising kids to be extremely unsocial and I think it's changing society for the worse."
