Amsterdam &Vienna | The Two World Capitals Tour
September 22 - September 30, 2018
Inspired by the 90th anniversary of Vincent’s Seven Capital Tour of the Art Capitals of Europe, Victoria Price and myself invite you to join us on a cultural tour of two of the cities that Vincent visited in 1928: Amsterdam & Vienna. We’ve planned an exciting cultural itinerary, which will be attractive to both travellers who have never been to Europe before, as well as for seasoned visitors.
Our new company ESC TOURS creates unique itineraries that include both travel highlights as well as unique cultural experiences that allow travellers to get beneath the tourist experience and develop a deeper connection with each country. This two-city tour includes museums and castles, World Heritage sites, exploring parks and neighbourhoods, food adventures, musical entertainment -- and much more!! If you are interested in finding out more about this trip, please sign up following this link: https://www.esctours.com/contact/
You can also email us with questions at exploresavorcelebrate @ gmail.com
For those of you who have travelled with us before and consider yourselves the more adventurous type, we are also offering an Off the Beaten Track: Austria & Germany trip from 30 September 30 – 9 October. We will only have a limited number of seats for this trip, and first priority goes to previous ESC travellers. If you are interested in this trip – or both trips – please let us know vie email as soon as possible.
THE PRICE LEGACY BOOK COLLECTION
Victora is currently on the road promoting her inspirational memoir The Way of Being Lost: A Road Trip to My Truest Self, which is available in the US from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Indiebound. I am working with the publisher on bringing Victoria back to the UK for a book tour, where all of the Price Family Legacy titles will be getting their first-ever UK print run in November.
These will include Vincent's visual memoir, I Like What I Know, his tribute to his canine pal The Book of Joe, and all of his cookbooks, including Cooking Price Wise. I am ooking for suitable venues to host Victoria.
So, if you know of a great little bookshop, art gallery, cinema or restaurant in your area of the UK or Ireland that might be able to help, then do get in touch with me at: peter@thesoundofvincentprice.com Well that's all for now folks - hope you are enjoying the snow.

Celebrate Thanksgiving with Vincent Price's Pumpkin Pie
While we don't celebrate Thanksgiving here in the UK, I shall be getting into the spirit today cooking up this tasty Pumpkin Pie recipe from Mary and Vincent Price's COME INTO THE KITCHEN COOK BOOK, which was first published in 1969, and got a glorious reprint last year.
VINCENT PRICE'S PUMPKIN PIE
- 1 9-inch unbaked pie shell
- 1½ cups canned or mashed cooked pumpkin
- 3 eggs, well beaten
- 1½ cups heavy cream
- ¾ cups granulated sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground mace
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg
- ½ tsp ground ginger
Instructions
- Make the pie shell with a high scalloped edge, refrigerate for several hours.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- In a large bowl (with a pouring lip if you have one) combine the pumpkin with the eggs, then the cream, sugar, salt and spices. Blend well and pour into the chilled pie shell.
- Bake for 15 mins, then reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for 50-65 minutes more, or until knife inserted in center of the pie comes out with only a few flecks clinging to it.
- Chill before serving. Makes about 8 servings.
