I assumed, that given it would be a large party, I would be one of the first few guests, even arriving 15 minutes late. Its not easy walking in heels for a quarter of a mile. I hadn't realised how far I was. My feet begin to blister, my only solace being a couple I spy ahead of me walking toward a house. . There is china; hundreds and hundreds...

Prose is architecture, not interior decoration." - Ernest Hemingway. Some things seem fool proof.like baking a pie. If baking a pie weren't easy, the expression, "easy as pie" wouldn't exist. Maybe it doesn't and I just made that up. But the point is, wholesome things, the things that make you feel all home and hearthy. On the inside are simple.

Word Relish: Big Thinkings

Prose is architecture, not interior decoration." - Ernest Hemingway.
