On his fifty-third birthday, Kevin Sessums woke up in his L.A. hotel room wondering how he would get through his scheduled interview with Hugh Jackman. For years he had interviewed the bright lights--Madonna, Courtney Love, Jessica Lange, and all the other usual suspects--but Kevin knew that his rapidly unraveling life was as shallow as the hotel's hip furniture and he was hanging on by his fingertips. In I Left It on the Mountain, Sessums chronicles his early days in New York as an actor; his years working for Andy Warhol at Interview and Tina Brown, then Graydon Carter, at Vanity Fair; countless nights of anonymous sex; his HIV-positive diagnosis; and his descent into addiction. It's also the chronicle of one man's spiritual redemption, found while climbing to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, walking the Camino de Santiago de Compostelo, and trudging across the cold, lonely winter beaches of Provincetown. Peopled with the famous, like Daniel Radcliffe and Diane Sawyer, as well as anonymous companions--corporeal and otherwise--whom he met while mountain climbing and hiking, I Left It on the Mountain is the story of one man's fall and rebirth, the next moving chapter in Kevin Sessums's extraordinary life that takes him from the high to the low and back again. For readers who loved Mississippi Sissy and want to know what happened to that tenacious little boy with the baseball mitt, I Left It on the Mountain is the sometimes very dark but ultimately hopeful answer.Binding Type: Paperback

Fresh and Flavorful Pepper
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
These Sauer’s whole black peppercorns are very fresh, strong, and full of flavor. I love adding them whole to meats and rice, for me it’s always a nice surprise to find a peppercorn in a spoonful and taste that magical, spicy kick. The quality is excellent, and the aroma is natural and bold. The 1 pound canister is a great value because it brings a lot and lasts a long time. Perfect for grinding or using whole in everyday cooking.

Fresh, Bold Flavor That Transforms Every Dish – A Kitchen Staple Worth Stocking Up On!
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
As someone who cooks for a family of six and hosts weekly dinners, I needed a reliable source of high-quality black pepper that wouldn't lose its punch in bulk. Sauer's Whole Black Pepper in this 1-pound canister has been an absolute game-changer. The peppercorns arrived perfectly fresh, with that deep, aromatic aroma that hits you the moment you open the lid – no stale or dusty vibes here. They're uniform in size, easy to grind (whether in a mill or mortar), and deliver a sharp, spicy kick that elevates everything from simple scrambled eggs to my signature grilled steaks. The canister itself is a smart design for foodservice pros like me – airtight seal keeps moisture and air out, so it stays potent for months without clumping. I've already gone through half in just three weeks of heavy use, and it's held up flawlessly. No fillers, just pure, whole black pepper from a brand I trust. If you're tired of pre-ground stuff that tastes like sawdust, grab this – your taste buds will thank you. Five stars all the way; I'll be ordering the next canister before this one runs dry!

Nice Peppercorns
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Very pleased with these Sauer’s whole black peppercorns. The quality is excellent — fresh, aromatic, and full of flavor. They grind easily in my pepper mill and make a noticeable difference compared to pre-ground pepper. I’ve used them on everything from salads to steaks and soups, and the flavor really stands out. Great value for the amount you get, and I’ll definitely purchase again
