Saving the good dishes for 'important' meals. ALL meals are important. Saving perfume for the "perfect" event. That never comes. We deserve to treat ourselves as good as we treat our guests. If it's so great to put out on display, then ALL the MORE reason to use it frequently!!TracyKMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07498896222222982320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23822884.post-31277221317906964942010-04-08T15:24:11.258-04:002010-04-08T15:24:11.258-04:00Isn't that just the way people tend to be?

Yet, why have it if you don't use it?

One brother finally just gave her comestibles, hoping she'd use them. That she wouldn't "save" them. Hah--that didn't work either. After she died we found a cupboard full of old jams and specialty teas that he had given her.
