Armageddon comes to LIC...

Eric and I have gotten hooked on a new wine store on Jackson Avenue, Vine Wine. It's totally hip and fantastic and affordable. Dangerous, is what it is... Now if I could only find an apartment here I could both afford and not freeze to death in, all would be well....

If you find any cheap,warm ones that also accept pets, please let me know. I have a New Orleans refugee friend in dire need of such a place. BTW, do you know where one could find the egg wire wisk on the cover of your book? I'm seriously thinking of pairing it with your book as a composite gift for a friend...and possibly getting another for my three-year-old chocoholic chef-in-training son, who notices it on the book cover all the time. A hearty mazel tov on its publication, BTW...makes me want to grab a Long Island Ice Tea and steal the JC copy my mom has, in order to pore over it some. Stay well and warm, if possible.

susannah, I've gone through a bit of this with the promotion of a friend's fantasy/sci-fi book. A small blitz needs to be organized amongst you and other J & J admirers. Go to your local bookstores, inquire as to whether the book is available in store, order some copies right then, if needed and is not in-store; if it is in store but is not in a prominent spot, shuffle it around. (Suggested spots: next to JC or eclipsing Jeffrey Steingarten) If copies of the book are not needed right away, have you and your friends switch off and do the same thing: same bookstores, different people. Head to unenlightened bookselling sites and write rave reviews. You too have the right to promote a good book!

The effect will undoubtedly be akin to Berke Breathed's suggestion in an old "Bloom County" cartoon. Fanning out and flushing all the toilets at the same time in, say, the Pentagon, is bound to make people take notice. Booksellers' brains need a flushing, too.

hi julie,

are you doing any other readings in new york? i don't know how i missed your astor place appearance back in october. i'm glad i found this blog. i loved your book and gave away four copies to friends who laughed as much as i did.

just wanted to tell you that when you were doing the blog, you inspired me to give a dinner party straight out of mastering... the spinach gratin alone took four hours! big fun.

I got your book for Christmas. YAY! And I say anyone who says it's not about cooking doesn't understand the heart and soul of cooking, so there. You completely captured the range of a cook's emotions-from the lows of misbehaving icings to the highs of a perfectly flipped crepe. I loved it.

I hope you have some readings in 2006. Happy New Year!

I think I have first dibs on the title Actress/Wine Educator/Whatever, which I thought you could appreciate. Anyhoo - while I get paid very little to act in the windy city, I do own a wine education and events business called Winediva Enterprises that pays me just fine, thanks.
I read your book in just two days and it lifted me out of a holiday funk with flying colors. Kudos. You rock. I've bought 5 hardcover copies for friends and plan to pimp it in my next newsletter which goes out to 750 Chicago foodie cork dork types. I hope they all buy one too.

p.s. My favorite cheap CA red right now is Marietta Old Vine Red. Doesn't have a vintage, but don't let that freak you out. Its about $12. Juicy. Spicy. Slutty in a good way.
