Today’s gadget from E’s KITCHEN in Lafayette, LA is the PACK IT FREEZABLE WINE BAG!

An ingenious new approach to on-the-go cooling, this wine bag keeps drinks at the perfect temperature for hours without needing ice packs. The bag features a unique roll top design and carry strap system that secures the bottle in the bag and locks in cold, dry air. Its intelligent strap lets you sling the bottle over your shoulder, leaving your hands free. You can also pull the strap’s tab and carry it in your hand. When you are done, it flattens to a slim profile for compact storage and easy stacking in the freezer or in other bags. The product features include:
-Built-in freezable gel that keeps items cool up to 6 hours (depending on external temperatures.
-Fits and protects one 750 ml-1L bottle of wine or a large beer bottle.
-Made from food-safe, nontoxic poly canvas and waterproof EVA-PVC-BPA, phthalate and lead free.
This makes a perfect gift! Price $17.99!

If you have never had ARANCINI, give this recipe a try. Typically, it is made with rice, but my DADDY loved it with EGGPLANT. I must agree, I think it is quite different and delicious. If you have never tasted or prepared OSSO BUCO, you really need to make this dish. It is always a winner. I love it when someone cooks it for me. There are many versions to this recipe but all are “A-NUMBER ONE”!

Have a great day!
