"[w]hat was any art but ... a sheath, a mould in which to imprison for a moment the shining, elusive element which is life itself - life hurrying past us and running away, too strong to stop, too sweet to lose." - Willa Cather, Song of the Lark

Lessons learned the hard way no.s 1736 and 1737
#1736: Several mean-spirited people will drive through massive puddles just to splash you when you're walking home with your groceries in the rain. It's a cruel, cruel world.
#1737: Fava beans should be shelled before you put them into your salad and take a bite. So a recipe that supposedly takes 10 minutes really takes about 50, and your fingers get wrinkled from the emergency re-boiling and soaking session.
