Today we’re talking about living a beautiful life. Alexandra Stoddard, who wrote on this topic, said that people have a tendency to save up 95 percent of their money and effort to spend on 5 percent of their lives—festive occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries and holidays, and vacations. Instead, she argues, the way to live a beautiful life is to make the daily 95 percent of your life beautiful and wonderful. So how do you make the mundane of your day become more like the shining moments? Today we’ll share our thoughts on the matter, giving special focus to food. After all, food gives us an opportunity three times a day to have a nourishing experience not just for our bodies, but for our souls.
