My guest filled the house with fine food, friendship, and this white lily and tulip bouquet. Its beauty and rich fragrance is still wafting through the Sonoma summer air. Enduring friendship. There is nothing like it.

'Tis the gift to be simple
'Tis the gift to be free
'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be
And when we find ourselves in the place just right
It will be in the valley of love and delight.

Written in 1848 by Shaker, Joseph Brackett in Maine.

Words to live by.
