    Memorable Quotes by Maggy Thorsen:

    “Fire started, and Frank ensconced on the hearth, I repaired to the kitchen, where I poured myself a glass of fine red wine and opted for a sleeve of Ritz crackers and a can of spray cheese to go with it. Major food groups accounted for (fat and salt, alcohol and aerosol), I settled on the couch to call Caron.”

    “My house is up the creek, and I mean that literally. Poplar Creek runs the length of Brookhills, forming the town’s west boundary. Living downstream is fashionable, upstream is un¬fashionable. And the farther down or up, the more fashion¬able or unfashionable you get. Got it? Down, good. Up, bad. I was bad. In fact, the only thing badder, or farther upstream from me in Brookhills, was Christ Christian Church, which I think got special dispensation from God”

    Memorable Quotes by Maggy Thorsen:

    “The only relationship in my life right now was with red wine. While wine might be impudent, it was seldom snarky or demeaning. A little spice, a fair amount of oak and the best of them get better with age. What more could a woman want?Except maybe to get corked occasionally.”
