"What better way to win a heart than to spend a lazy summer afternoon in some shady and secluded country spot, a stream meandering by at the foot of the grassy slope, a few fleecy clouds floating over head, and a bright red-and-white checkered cloth spread out, upon which sits the champagne,the fat wedge of pate de campagne, the strawberries and cream?"
~John Thorne, American culinary writer.

"Books . . . are like lobster shells, we surround ourselves with 'em, then we grow out of 'em and leave 'em behind, as evidence of our earlier stages of development."

"Curiouser and curiouser" ~ A phrase from Lewis Caroll's Alice in Wonderland books.

Another familiar phrase, "sometimes I have believed as many as six imposible things before breakfast," endures and enters into our everyday use."

Personally, I relate to poor Alice's bizarre experiences ~ in her case, falling down a rabbit hole, passing through a mirror, shrinking, expanding, showing up in the most absurd surroundings among characters that seem surreal. Unexpected, unpredictable change!

What is normal? What is ordinary?
