My first guest is Vanessa Boucher Director of Marketing and a driving force behind the web site EverPresent.com
EverPresent is a portal that allow you to preserve any type of analog family memory, photos, video tape and more.
One of the most popular posts on the EverPresent Blog is an in-depth series on Turning Old Family Recipes into Heirloom Cookbooks. It touches on everything from organizing and preserving your precious recipe cards to incorporating family photos and stories into a unique heirloom cookbook keepsake for your family with free downloadable templates.
With a staff of 60+ you just send your organized recipes and photos and work with one of the designers to produce the cookbook you like. From simple to complex and publishable, they can help you do it all. Or if you are handy with a computer, there is a Blog post for the DIY crowd allowing you to download a template and build your own cookbook.
Just before the wine of the week, I’ll be talking to Linda Funk, Executive Director of The Soyfoods Council. Linda has lots of suggestions on how you can incorporate Plant Protein to eat healthy yet tasty during the holidays with soy foods. She has some easy recipes for using soy milk as well as adding soy flower to your wheat flour when your baking cookies.
Good Life Guy’s Wine of the Week:
2015 Bodega La Milagrosa “ESCONDIDO” Tempranillo, Ribera Del Duero Spain
100% Tempranillo aged 8 months in American Oak. Aromas of Cedar, Asian spices, incense, balsamic notes, minerals, ripe cherries, concentrated, well proportioned and red in the glass. In the mouth, the spicy black fruit flows into a long finish.
Sweet, medicinal, bitter chocolate and slightly exotic nose. Very big, dry tannins that almost sweep you away. Bold finish that screams out for grilled meat. Drink now. James Suckling 92pts!
Note to self: If you were on the Jacob Liquor Exchange email list you would have received advanced notice of this wines sale! But if you hurry in to the North Rock Road location you may find some that I had stashed away…ask the wine folks 🙂
