The hard way builds solidly a foundation of confidence that cannot be swept away

The food I've liked in my time is American country cookin'.

No hours, nor amount of labor, nor amount of money would deter me from giving the best that there was in me.

I'm too drunk to taste this chicken

To me, my recipes are priceless.

I've read hundreds of cookbooks. For my money, they are the bird.

The easy way is efficacious and speedy, the hard way arduous and long. But, as the clock ticks, the easy way becomes harder and the hard way becomes easier. And as the calendar records the years, it becomes increasingly evident that the easy way rests hazardously upon shifting sands, whereas the hard way builds solidly a foundation of confidence that cannot be swept away.
