"Pongáio" was the name my Aunt Mona gave to a long, green, cool room where we gathered at her home — replete with comfy chairs, a rocker, sewing machine, sewing goods, beautiful beads, shelves, books, bibelots, photographs, odds'n'ends, mementos of a life, treasures — a gathering of all the useful & 'useless' things that so make life a pleasure.

Silence
Greek philosopher Xenocrates wrote,
“I have often regretted my speech, never my silence.”
