From her, I learned Math (“Calculate it: ingredients cost, plus electricity cost, plus opportunity cost. . . SO MUCH CHEAPER to buy the cookies.”)
And Economics (“Always leave the party early. The less they see of you, the higher your value.”)
And Sex Ed (“Your dad threw his jocks at me, and I got pregnant.”)
And Marketing (“When you first meet a guy, don’t talk about your over-education.”)
And Religion (“He may look like an angel, but if he can’t put food on the table, he’ll quickly look like the devil.”)
And Interior Design (“The secret to a happy marriage is separate bathrooms.”)
And Career Planning (“Life goals? I had none. I just wanted to get you guys educated and have lunches with my friends.”)
And History (“During my time, we never looked for Mr. Perfect. We just got married, and dealt with the consequences later. Stop looking for Mr. Perfect!”)
