Short Culinary Verse


Eat Laugh and Enjoy the Earth

And feed your Love for all it's Worth.

unknown

 

Serenely full,
     the epicure would say,

Fate cannot harm me,
     I have dined today.

Sydney Smith
quoted in 'Lady Holland's Memoir'

 

If you set it,

the cats will eat it,

If you sow it,

the cats don't know it.

Philip Miller, The Gardener's Dictionary
(referring to catnip)
