The fact is that modern life has deprived us of life's one great luxury: time.  Laurie Colwin

When I was alone, I lived on eggplant, the stove top cook's strongest ally. I fried it and stewed it, and ate it crisp and sludgy, hot and cold. It was cheap and filling and was delicious in all manner of strange combinations. If any was left over, I ate it cold the next day on bread.  Laurie Colwin

 It is my opinion that Norman Rockwell and his ilk have done more to make already anxious people feel guilty than anyone else.  Laurie Colwin 

  One of the delights of life is eating with friends; second to that is talking about eating. And, for an unsurpassed double whammy, there is talking about eating while you are eating with friends.  Laurie Colwin 

 Provision as much pure and organic food as you can, and let the rest go by. - Laurie Colwin
