Body Betrayal: Broken Glass
I broke a wine glass last night. It was one of my favorites, a perfect match to the one on the left, and I loved it. Woe is me! It was also half-full of white wine and ice. It didn’t simply break at the stem. No, the glass shattered into at least twenty pieces, someContinue reading “Body Betrayal: Broken Glass”
