All I can say is although I like the additional counter space with no cookbooks...they look great in my wine tasting room. I will never forget when I decided not to buy the next book..but have convinced myself that thrift shopping still allows me to buy a great cookbook for .25 cents to 2.00. Apps are fine but there is still nothing like sipping a glass of fine wine and paging through a fantastic cookbook. It is relaxing and stimulating at the same time. Looking at a computer screen at work and trying to enjoy a fab wine and laptop recipes is not as quaint in my favorite reading spot. I am trying to manage both but still find my self in the greatest spots buying a new book. I don’t know now if I have more bottles of wine or cookbooks in my tasting room.
