Where To Buy The Devil's Cup: A History of the World According to Coffee

I love to travel, am interested in history, and drink more coffee than is probably healthy every day. This book was right up my alley. I've re-read this book more than once and have given it away more times than I can remember. I'm not sure what I enjoyed more, the travel log or the history "asides" given so that you hardly notice you're learning about coffee's rich history and influence on cultures and civilizations. After reading this, you'll wonder what secrets and anecdotes other common-place, everyday items have.Get more detail about The Devil's Cup: A History of the World According to Coffee.

Maybe good for a beginner, but if you already have a collection of cookbooks at home (and I do), don't spend your money on this book. You'll find that it just duplicates recipes that you already have.Get more detail about Wine Bar Food: Mediterranean Flavors to Crave with Wines to Match.

Love by the Glass: Tasting Notes from a Marriage Get it now!

What a cool couple John and Dottie are. I loved reading about their life long love affair with wine, and each other. I am impressed by how open they are to trying all wine and finding something good in it, and their enthusiasm has made me a little more willing to try what I suspect are overly fruity cabs.
They have great advice for the average wine drinker. It doesn't have to be expensive to taste good! Get more detail about Love by the Glass: Tasting Notes from a Marriage.
