Camas Davis was at an unhappy crossroads. A longtime magazine writer and editor in the food world, she'd returned to her home state of Oregon with her boyfriend from New York City to take an appealing job at a Portland lifestyle magazine. But neither job nor boyfriend delivered on her dreams, and in the span of a year, Davis was unemployed and on her own. Disillusioned by the years she’d spent mediating the lives of others for a living, she had no idea what to do next. She did know one thing: She no longer wanted to write about the real thing; she wanted to be the real thing.

Words to Eat By explores the remarkable stories behind five of our most basic food words, words which reveal fascinating aspects of the evolution of the English language and our powerful associations with certain foods.

Learning about wine will not only increase your appreciation for the drink, but will expand your mind. There is so much more to wine than a color and a name.

The best part, I feel, is that this is something that you can do with friends. Wine can bring people together. Beyond learning about how to taste wine, you can learn how to pair wine to your meal, or vice versa. You can impress people with your skills for pairings.

50 Things to Know About Wine by author David R. Comings offers a comprehensive, easy-to-listen-to, and approachable way to understand the world of wine. Most books on wine give you lots of great information without really telling you what to do with it.
