Unbelievable my father was in the restaurant business for decades and I have it in my blood. I had never heard about Alice Waters and shame on me that shows how little I know. The woman is exceptional to say the least. I'd like to have a copy of that book

"Always remember to be grateful." A basic guide to life that brings great happiness when practiced.

[@gmar7836]

Yes. Absolutely

@@gmar7836 I was just thinking how sending a Thank You card to someone who is not expecting one would be a good thing to do today.

[@gmar7836]

@@rr7firefly sure! But I think the card would have to show that you’re grateful to them for something. Otherwise they won’t figure out why you’re grateful for them. Lol

[@gmar7836]

But thank you for your comment because I agree with you 100%. I come across too many people who are not grateful. I hope they all have a crappy Christmas.
Example: you’re driving and you let someone cut in and they don’t give you the universal thank you wave. That always gets me. Like they expect it

[@rr7firefly]

@@gmar7836 I have friends who periodically tell me that I make their lives better. I suppose that is an indirect way of saying "Thanks." // I just remembered that the theme song for "Golden Girls" is "Thank You for Being a Friend."
