"A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside; "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."--Jean Antheleme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste

Personal Notes:
One of my best memories of you girls at Gram and Gramps is when we would go for dinner and mom would have a jar of dill pickles cut up on the table before dinner and you guys would inhale them. I would tell you to stop eating them before dinner and MOM would say it ok Christine leave them alone, I always have another jar open ready for dinner when your girls come.
