This was first shown in the passage when Mary Louise says “—and—well, this parsley happens to be the only really gardeny thing I have, so I thought I’d bring it along and sniff it once in a while, and make believe it’s the country, up there on the roof.” Mary was creative by using what she had to help bring her old home back to her.

    My girlfriends came in town this week. I was so thrilled because I needed a break from school and work. I needed time to be with people who always know how to make me laugh and remind me to relax and take a deep breath. My girls and I went to Outback Steakhouse to wine and dine. It was on a late weeknight, so they're not a lot of people in the restaurant. I did not hear much, but the chefs and the waiters speaking faintly in the background. The music was also playing in the background. Our…
