Hrm, maybe we could talk Vaccinium into showing us how to bind books?

I'd be interested in doing a workshop on wine: buying it, the different wine regions, and the different varietals. Either that, or I'll work it into an Eden Cooks meeting format...

I'm gathering more info for a potential bookbinding workshop, but I'm not ready just yet.

Nothing coming to mind.

I mean, wow, I was gone for like 15 minutes and nothing...

I also agree that there's a lot of room in Flicks for lots of different things


I think DS said she had an idea, but now she's not here....

That is great idea! I am not much of a wine drinker, but I have always been curious about the ins and outs, and what makes some wine so expensive.

Throw in you stomping the grapes and I will be in for sure.

I'm not really a wine drinker but that would be very interesting. Information on what wine with what food would be great.

I think that is a great idea. I could always do one for beer as well, although I would guess wine would be more appreciated.

I think I'd like to do it as a Eden Cooks segment, and possibly get into the basics of pairing wine and food. (I'm still feeling out the idea, myself)

BEER is more appreciated to me... I like wine much more than beer

I never got to stomp grapes when I worked at the winery, but we did have this punch-down that was cut out in the shape of a pair of feet, just to be funny.

I did it once when my boss made wine, it was kind of fun. Would have been better with a girl or two.

I'm kind of here (on the phone with tech support )

BUT I HAVE A SUGGESTION.

Can you guys ask the tech people if we can add time limits to polls?

Here's why that would be awesome:
A. People wouldn't be able to vote in the rumbles and things like that past their time frame
B. People wouldn't be able to bump up dead threads just for points
C. People like new shiny buttons to push.

For people who don't know what punching-down is in wine, here's a good youtube video to explain.
