"The power of finding beauty

in the humblest things makes

home happy and life lovely."

~Louisa May Alcott

So remember reading LMA

as a child. I simply devoured

her books. She was amazing,

especially for her era.

I like her attitude . . . finding

beauty in the humblest things.

-A sleepless night provides

a time for thinking.

-Running out of a given

product helps to inspire a

new dish.

-Staying home, rather than

going out, gives time to read,

visit, cook and even imbibe.

-Learning to live on a small

retirement enhances thought

as to consumption practices.

-Being an elder lends an 

entirely different perspective

to life.

Sooooo this whole learning

to think outside the box thing!

LMA was an American author

poet, and short story writer.

She wrote pulp fiction as well

as her experiences as a Civil 

War nurse and women's rights

publications. 1832 - 1888
