Hello, and welcome to Family Folktales from the Nashville Public Library. I’m Susan Poulter, a Librarian at the Main Library. Today’s story is The Flying Trunk, a story by Hans Christian Andersen found in Andrew Lang’s Pink Fairy Book. There was once a merchant who was so rich that he could have paved the whole street with gold, and would even then have had enough for a small alley. But he did not do so; he knew the value of money better than to use it in this way. So clever was he, that every shilling he put out brought him a crown; and so he continued till he died. His son inherited his wealth, … [Read more...] about Nashville Public Library: The Flying Trunk

The state of the American wine industry is grim, according to a closely watched report that annually analyzes its trajectory. Winemakers and advertisers are missing out on younger consumers, the report says, by failing to produce wines that fit their budgets and neglecting to reach out to them with targeted marketing campaigns. “ State of the U.S. Wine Industry 2023 ,” which has made recommendations for more than 20 years, found that the only area of growth for American wine was among consumers over 60, said its author, Rob McMillan, executive vice president of Silicon Valley Bank in Santa Clara, Calif., and a longtime analyst of the American wine industry. The biggest growth area, he said, was among 70- to 80-year-olds. As it has in recent years, the report urged the wine industry to do a better job of appealing to younger consumers, who have many more beverage options today than baby boomers did in their formative years. Among those are craft beers, small-production spirits and … [Read more...] about The American Wine Industry Has an Old People Problem

Hello, and welcome to Family Folktales from the Nashville Public Library. I’m Susan Poulter, a Librarian at the Main Library. Today’s story is The House in the Wood, a German tale found in Andrew Lang’s Pink Fairy Book. A poor woodcutter lived with his wife and three daughters in a little hut on the borders of a great forest. One morning as he was going to his work, he said to his wife, 'Let our eldest daughter bring me my lunch into the wood; and so that she shall not lose her way, I will take a bag of millet with me, and sprinkle the seed on the path.' When the sun had risen high over the forest, the girl set out with a … [Read more...] about Nashville Public Library: The House In The Wood

This week, I frantically sent some friends the following message: “If you found MONTHS old expired cream cheese in your fridge, but it tasted and smelled normal, would you eat it? y/n.” (Spoiler: I ate it.) My cooking can, at times, be shortsighted. I’ll get jazzed to make a recipe with few plans for any of the leftover ingredients, leaving me with half-full containers that I inevitably forget about. But there’s one item in my fridge that can stand the test of time: my tub of shiro, or white, miso . Miso paste is fermented, and its high salt content protects it from mold. Depending on whom you ask, miso paste will last in the fridge for anywhere between six to 18 months. I’ve used some far older than that, and I’m still here to write this newsletter. But if you would like to avoid sending a panicked text asking if your miso is safe, here are a few ways to use it up. Soups : Recipes for soup often call for adding the miso near the end of cooking, off heat. To … [Read more...] about Three Ways to Finish a Tub of Miso

At All’Arco, a small and busy lunch place not far from the Rialto in Venice, there’s not a lot a room to eat. So people head outside with their drinks and plates of fresh cichetti (Venetian for snacks). There are few outdoor tables, so glasses come to rest where they can, on ancient windowsills and stoops. By early afternoon, the alleys around the restaurant resemble an open-air dining hutch, lined with goblets. The ones that glow red are Campari spritzes; the orange, Aperol. Spritz culture is ingrained in the cities and towns of northern Italy, where ice-filled chalices of the classic combo — bitter liqueur and sparkling wine or water (or both) — refract sunlight on every other cafe table. You can even buy a spritz at the Venice airport before you board your plane. The drink’s footing in the United States is a bit shakier, rooted mainly in embarrassing memories from the 1970s and ‘80s of sipping bland concoctions called white wine spritzers. But that’s beginning to … [Read more...] about Bitter and Bubbly, the Spritz Evolves
