🌺 “Many a one has been comforted in their sorrow by seeing a good dish come upon the table.”
🌺 “Out of the way! We are in the throes of an exceptional emergency! This is no occassion for sport- there is lace at stake!" Miss Pole
🌺 “My father once made us," she began, "keep a diary, in two columns; on one side we were to put down in the morning what we thought would be the course and events of the coming day, and at night we were to put down on the other side what really had happened. It would be to some people rather a sad way of telling their lives," (a tear dropped upon my hand at these words) - "I don't mean that mine has been sad, only so very different to what I expected.” Miss Mattie
