My faves are from Carl Sandburg, Martin Mull (so true) and Ogden Nash.

Love the quotes. I visited the Perry family this morning...left them my prayers and love. I don't know if I could get through that one. I got my prize. Thanks so much...I even loved the card. I can't wait to get in the kitchen and use it. That was one pampered chef book I did not have. I love the stuff...especially the stones.
