The same feeling of fascination came over her that used to settle her as a child watching her mother bandage a cut knee, or roll a lemon under her palm, or scrape batter off her fingers with a bone-handled knife, or peel potatoes with such infinite regard for the flesh that her peelings too were skin-thin and elegant. How it lulls a person, the sight of work done easily and well and without conscious thought. -- Elizabeth Hay, Alone in the Classroom --
