Lots of pretty pictures make the bruises and arm pain worth it.
I'm still in the throws of studying for my Wine Specialist Certificate from George Brown College and this is my text. You can't tell it from here, but it weighs, oh, about 10 million pounds! Seriously, it's the kind of book that bruises your thighs if you try propping it up to read it. If you try just holding it, your arms hurt. Well, mine do, anyway. What I'm saying is two things: one, it's no fun to have to sit at a table to read a book and two, finally I can see a book just made for one of those e-readers, faux-books that I won't touch.
Why won't I touch them? Two reasons: one, I'm an old fart and two, this old fart likes the feeling of a book and the look of a book on her shelf. I guess that's three reasons.
But for this freakin' doorstop, I'd make an exception!
Still, if you love wine and you want to know more about it, this is a fantastic book/doorstop/flower press/booster seat. Filled with tons of information delivered in that delightfully snotty way that only the British can get away with. "Carbonic masturbation" anyone?
I'm almost done this course, then there is one more and then I'm taking a bit of a break from studies. But after I've recovered, I have my sights set on the fromager set, also at George Brown. I hear the homework is delicious!
