Perrault's Fairy TalesHere are the original eight stories from the 1697 volume Contes de temps pass by the great Charles Perrault (1628 1703) in a translation that retains the charming and unsentimental simplicity that has won Perrault a permanent position in French literature.

Here are the original eight stories from the 1697 volume Contes de temps pass by the great Charles Perrault (1628-1703) in a translation that retains the charming and unsentimental simplicity that has won Perrault a permanent position in French literature. These were among the earliest versions of some of our most familiar fairy tales (Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Little Red Riding Hood, Puss in Boots, and Tom Thumb) and are still among the few classic re-tellings of these perennial stories.In addition to the five well-known tales listed above, Perrault tells three others that are sure to delight any child or adult: The Fairies, a short and very simple tale of two sisters, one sweet and one spiteful; Ricky of the Tuft, a very unusual story of a brilliant but ugly prince and a beautiful but stupid princess; and Blue Beard, a suspense story perhaps more famous as a classic thriller than as a fairy tale. The witty verse morals that Perrault included in the original edition (often omitted in later reprintings) are retained here in verse translations.
This edition also includes 34 extraordinary full-page engravings by Gustave Dor that show clearly why this artist became the foremost illustrator of his time. These illustrations have long been considered the ideal accompaniment to Perrault's fairy tales. In many cases they created the pictorial image that we associate with the stories.
Along with the collections of Andersen, Lang, and the Brothers Grimm, this volume is among the great books of European fairy tales. These stories have been enjoyed by generation after generation of children in many countries, and are here, with magnificent Dor illustrations, waiting to be enjoyed again.

Strong, Fresh, and Long-Lasting Black Pepper for Everyday Cooking
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I recently started using this whole black pepper in a 1-pound canister, and it has been a great addition to my kitchen. The peppercorns are fresh, aromatic, and have a strong natural spice that really enhances the flavor of home-cooked meals.
One of the best things about using whole pepper instead of pre-ground is the freshness. When I grind it myself, the aroma is much stronger and the taste feels more bold and flavorful. It works perfectly in a pepper grinder and gives me control over how coarse or fine I want it.
I’ve used it in soups, marinades, meat dishes, and even simple everyday cooking like eggs and vegetables. It adds a nice heat and depth of flavor without being overwhelming. A little goes a long way, so the large canister lasts quite a while, which makes it very practical for regular cooking.
The packaging is simple but sturdy, and it keeps the peppercorns fresh and dry. It’s also convenient for storage in the pantry.
Overall, this is a solid, reliable black pepper option for anyone who cooks often. It’s fresh, strong, and versatile, making it a great staple spice for everyday use in the kitchen.

Pepper -Black
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Good, economic and works well for normal household use. Wouldn’t suggest snorting it as that is not its intended purpose.

Good quality and flavorful
Size: 24 ounce (Pack of 1)
Very aromatic and flavorful. A great spice to buy in bulk since it's good in almost everything! The garlic is fresh and flows freely with no clumps. Good value for the size.

Delicious, nice quality, small ground granule style dried garlic. Excellent product and price.
Size: 24 ounce (Pack of 1)
I see a lot of discussion over this product. Many loving it and many saying it is not granulated, but in the powder form. It IS indeed labelled Garlic Powder, but this is actually the granulated type, just very small granules. This is important because I like the granulated; I find the true powder form to be hard to work with and not as good tasting. This Amazon Grocery Garlic Powder is excellent, very fine quality, dried garlic into tiny granules. I'm very happy with this product.

Reasonably priced garlic powder with no anti caking ingredients.
Size: 3.9 ounce (Pack of 1)
I like this garlic powder it is just like similar ones I purchased in the past.
It has no additive so you get pure garlic powder there is no anti- caking agent.
It is not like the store bought granulated garlic powder with anti-caking agents
When you pour it out lightly tap it because it could come out fairly fast compared to the granulated garlic type.
Whenever I get a chance I order a new one because this is flavorful. Just when I add it to Chicken fried I added on the top after cooking that and covering you don't want to burn it.
