Saguaro Library book reading
What a great opportunity for me to read some pages from Menu For Murder and hear feedback. Thanks to the Arizona Author's Association for inviting me.
Does the Wine Glass Matter by L. A. Keller
As part of my restaurant series, this post is about the vessel you use to consume your juice - the fermented grape juice variety. Personally, I love a beautiful glass from which to drink wine. The more shapely and delicate the more I enjoy the wine - not because it always makes the wine dramatically better but it adds to the pleasure of the act. I also tend to break them routinely so I go through lots of different glassware. The first question you may ask is whether to have stemware or stemless (also known as a tumbler). There was a trend a few years ago to move away from glasses with stems. I agree that the stemless version is sturdier all around. You are less likely to knock the glass over and unable to snap off the stem when washing. These are easy to load in the dishwasher, but not always advisable for any wine glass depending on the quality of the glass. However, the biggest issue with stemless glasses is that you are holding the glass, and thus the wine, in your hand.
