To live by

Don't wing the pectin to sugar ratio.
Ground cayenne pepper stings when it enters your eyes.
Shoe polish is undervalued.
Expect to leave Costco very full.
Fresh air cures many an ill.
Grief crosses species boundaries. So does love.
Butter always; margarine never.
Sisterhood is more powerful than many other bonds.
Tea is best when it's overcast.
If you're scared to go to a party alone, go anyway.
