Status Updates From The Supper of the Lamb: A C...

On hosting a dinner:

"The road to Heaven does not run from the world but through it. The longest Session of all is no discontinuation of these sessions here, but a lifting of them all by priestly love."

"No need to trust blindly in the con men who put little numbers around the rims of electric stove knobs; you simply look under the pot and, yourself the master, build the flame you know you need. Fire is too old a friend to be forsaken for glowing rods."

Restarting this one over. I stopped several years ago as it was just too rich and too good, I felt like I wanted to share every other paragraph aloud to whoever might listen and appreciate—much like how a good meal is better enjoyed in company. But now I have at least one friend also reading it ;)

"Open your eyes to the elegant oddness of the world--and then go and do something minor and monumental with your meat before you take it out of the pan."

I DNF this one, I tried really hard to like it. Life’s too short to read a book I don’t enjoy 💀

I have 3 more chapters - this book is becoming like an old friend. I am sad to see the end coming too fast.
