Nothing irritates me more than having put my energy and time into planning a menu, making a complete list, shopping for the best deals, then [...]
The English in all of us

Food tour of Louisiana

"Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness.
