Great quote!

Jul 02

I was out to dinner tonight at a fabulous restaurant, and I saw this quote above the door:

"All the change that needs to happen in America starts at the dinner table."
--Ronald Reagan

It really resonated with me because so much in my life that needs to change has to happen around the dinner table.

Have you read the poem "Perhaps the World Ends Here" by Joy Harjo? It's my absolute favorite. My best friend's mom also keeps a copy in her kitchen.

How ironic that of all people Ronald Regan would be credited for having made a statement that is so profound for recovery lol!

I know! It seemed rather odd to me, but I do love the quote (even if I'm not a fan of the person who said it).

About Me

My photo
I'm a science writer, a jewelry design artist, a bookworm, a complete geek, and mom to a wonderful kitty. I am also recovering from a decade-plus battle with anorexia nervosa. I believe that complete recovery is possible, and that the first step along that path is full nutrition.

Drop me a line!
