quotes of the month


i love getting real simple magazine. i love their helpful hints and yummy recipes - which i always clip and hope i'll use them but haven't yet. but mostly i love the cute little quotes that accompany each change of topic or article. where do they find all these quotes? wouldn't that be a strange job - Appropriate Quote Finder - sounds like a super hero - AQF to the rescue - oh man i just stated humming a theme song.
anyways... here are the quotes from this month that i liked, enjoy:
