There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

Douglas Adams

If you want to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the universe.

Two big thoughts! I know Sagan's will crop up now and then today, it's something to mull over.

When you get fiished explaining to west about pie crusts, maybe you can tell me about this one.

I'm teaching hubby how to cook. I have never been able to do a decent Fried Chicken. However, I told him how to do it, he did it, and it was perfect.

Doesn't seem fair!
