Just finished another VERY cozy mystery, The Dark Vineyard , by Martin Walker. And, in it, there is a very funny scene when the townspeople get together for their annual ceremony of stomping the grapes when they ripen.
They put them all in a large vat and the men takes turns stomping on them while the women comment, very candidly, on the hairy legs they are looking at. A great laugh
WARNING: Do not read this book if you are hungry as there is a scene where Chief Bruno is cooking dinner for several of his friends and it is mouth watering. If this had been a pBook, I'd have probably chewed up the pages.
