How harsh for it to have come to her so young, but how wise she is at her age.

No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Do I need a cassoulet to tempt you?
Ha! No. But you can still bring one.
Okay, I think I'm sleepy now. Gonna go see how that works out.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Mmm, cassoulet!
I have two ducks in the freezer right now! I could get 4 cups of duck fat pretty easily.

Anyone ever read that one Douglas Adams book where a character ends up getting movers to take his refrigerator away, rather than clean it?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
fish smell -- small amount of vinager near the stove -- absorbs fish smell
My sister hates the smell of fish-- but like DH's fish chowder -- took the smell out of the house as it was cooking
