I didn't express myself clearly. I was wondering why they used homemade wine, instead of store-bought wine. I suppose that it would be because they enjoyed making it (and what else could you do with it after you got through making it but drink it yourself or serve it to others?) or because they thought that it was superior to store-bought wines.

Yeah, the brewing process is very temperamental. Any deviation affects the outcome. The neighbor that I mentioned probably had better success with consistency than the average person making wine. He would have been exact about the amount of this and the amount of that (yeast, grape juice, whatever else goes into it). He used stuff like a hydrometer (for measuring specific gravity), a thermometer, etc. But, like I said, he was a chemist, so these kinds of things were familiar to him anyway, and he enjoyed all of it.

The reason that I have such vivid memories of his operation, even though I was just a child of like 9-12 years of age, is that I loved chemistry at that age (I had an awesome lab down in our basement). So, I thought that what he did was pretty cool.

And, only $2.99!

If you like using a pressure cooker (I'm not a fan, myself), you should really appreciate this 529-page tome.

One reservation that I had about posting this book was the fact that it has only a 4.3-star rating at Amazob, which, with my ultra-high standards seemed a little weak. Concerns were allayed, however, when I checked GoodReads and saw that the average rating there is 4.16, from 135 ratings, which is very good for them.

The only other reservation that I had about posting the ebook is the fact that it is "only" 73% off (of the digital list price). Again, not up to my ultra-high standards, for bargain books.

The Great Big Pressure Cooker Book: 500 Easy Recipes for Every Machine, Both Stovetop and Electric. By Bruce Weinstein; Mark Scarbrough. Rated 4.3 stars, from 496 reviews at Amazon at the present moment.Print list price $25.00; digital list price $10.99; Kindle price now $2.99. Clarkson Potter, publisher. 529 pages. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MZWA8FI.

Book Description
The ultimate in pressure cooker books--with 500 recipes for breakfasts, soups, mains, grains, vegetables, and desserts--each adapted for stovetop or electric models, such as Instapot.

The old-fashioned pressure cooker has been rediscovered by modern home cooks, both for its quick-cooking powers (dried beans are perfectly soft in 35 minutes; risottos are tender in 20 minutes) and for its ability to infuse foods with intense flavor (carrots become sweeter, meat more savory). The Great Big Pressure Cooker Book has recipes for every device, stovetop and electric, no matter the manufacturer. Whether you're seeking an adventurous array of spices, found in dishes such as Cherry Chipotle Pulled Chicken or Smashed Sweet Potatoes with Pineapple and Ginger, or pure comfort food, like French Toast Bread Pudding or Classic Pot Roast and Potatoes, you'll find the perfect recipe--each labeled by level of ease--to feed your family. This is the only pressure cooker book you'll ever need.

Hey sweetie,
That is not anywhere close to a slow cooker. You might want to change your first sentence to if you like a pressure cooker.
Slow cooker is hours, pressure cooker is minutes.
Love,
Your favorite nemesis.

Hey sweet stuff.

Thanks. I'm changing the title. Mea culpa. I do know the difference, and I saw "pressure cooker" over and over as I was preparing the post. It's called a brain f*rt.

We've got to keep our relationship quiet, though. Okay?

Honey,
Oh oops, I forgot we were supposed to stay quiet, but doesn't a brain f*ft actually require a brain. I thought you left yours in San Francisco.
Love,
Me

Are you waiting until next week to change it? I was going to post the same thing as Cinisajoy.

Just so that you'd know . . . . I made a reply or two to Cinisajoy. Just when I finished, or nearly finished, I had an Internet outage, so I had to wait until that got fixed. The next time someone brings something like that to my attention, I'll make the change just as soon as possible. I do hate to make bloopers.

It is now 17 minutes after this post and the blooper is still there.
