Yes - it's from a wonderful essay in a book called Motherhood Memoirs: Mothers Creative/Writing Lives edited by Justine Dymond and Nicole Willey. You too have a great weekend!
"Tend to your pots" is a very personal and powerful metaphor for me, ever since I first heard the Santana song with the line, "My house is dark and my pots are cold." I wrote a blog post about it that may be off on a wild tangent from here, but then again, maybe not :-)
Great advice all around! Hope you have a great weekend.
