Toast of the Week:
This is a quote from Charles Henry Baker Jr.’s 1935 book The Gentleman’s Companion — it wasn’t written as a toast, but it works as one:
“ Each of our experiences that fetches joyous memory of some friend, place or adventure…is flaked with happy memory of a frosted glass, a smile and a sip of something perfect”. Here’s to us.
