And he didn't do anything. He just kept it there. And I went, "I have to write more."

Gordon RamsayThere are Harvard grads, free thinkers, feminists, abolitionists, well-to-do people who want to go write poetry and live on a farm and cook and laugh and have a good time. As they themselves described it, it was an "inward facing" community.

Guy FieriMany chefs of a certain caliber do not see me as a chef. I don't have a restaurant. They see me as a TV food personality, not a chef.

I don't think people think I can cook, and they don't think I know what the hell I'm doing.

But I'm never gonna be broke either.

Farm and cabin households, though bookless save for the Family Bible and The Sacred Harp, taught the girls to spin, weave, quilt, cook, sew, and mind their manners; the boys to wield gun, ax, hammer and saw, to ride, plow, sow and reap, and to be men. Nobody need ever be bored. Amusement did not have to be bought.
