Over a Barrel.

And speaking of wine history.
I'm a bit behind with my reading.  I have had this book for a while, I just haven't been able to get to it because of all the other stuff I find myself doing.  Over a Barrel: The Rise and Fall of New York's Taylor Wine Company by Thomas Pellechia has started out just fine, but like Edward Gibbon's chronicling of Rome's demise I have a feeling it's going to end in tears.  We'll see.

Summer reading.

I should be well into the pile of books I put aside for my summer reading by now, but I'm a little behind. I have however started with the book on top - Garlic, Wine and Olive Oil by Thomas Pellechia - and I am quite enjoying it. How could I not, it is a book about three of my favourite things; garlic, wine, and olive oil...yum. If only it had a chapter about dogs.
