Beverly Quote #972
Quote from Beverly in Our Perfect Strangers
Beverly: Well, I have been very busy cooking and taste-testing, practicing my banter for the inevitable big city book signings.
Linda Schwartz: If you need any help with your book, I can slip you my chicken piccata recipe.
Virginia Kremp: I can help, too. Sometimes I think my peanut-butter blondies are the only thing my family respects about me.
Beverly: They are, and that's so generous, but this is it's a Beverly Goldberg cook.
Essie Karp: I swear to God, if you say the word "cookbook" one more time, I'm gonna stab myself with this tiny jam spreader!
Virginia Kremp: Me too! All you talk about is that gosh darn cookbook and how you're gonna be thick as thieves with Julia Child!
Beverly: All I'm saying is that sometimes you just know you're gonna be best friends with someone before you meet them, and that's obviously very threatening to the three of you.

Quote from Murray
Virginia Kremp: Ladies, it seems we have a visitor.
Murray: This will only take a second. Uh, Marcie, Shelly, Tabitha. Um, I'm sorry, I forgot your name.
Essie Karp: You've actually forgotten all our names. And if Beverly sent you, you can tell her-
Murray: Ho, ho, ho, ho! She did not send me. I came on my own to let you guys know what a great friend she is.
Linda Schwartz: Who only wants to talk about herself.
Murray: Yes. But to me, she only talks about you guys.
Virginia Kremp: Murray, it's sweet you're here and honestly surprising to see you out of your chair, but we know it's not true.
Murray: Oh, but it is true. She was so jazzed when Jimothy won that Flower Grower of the Year Award.
Virginia Kremp: It's Charles, and, um, when I mentioned it to her, she didn't seem to care.
Murray: But she does care. And you, uh, Cindy? Your place in Florida? She's doing everything she can to get me down there.
Essie Karp: It's Essie. And really?
Murray: And you, Patty, she cannot stop talking about your son Stevie and how he can go to any Ivy League School that he wants.
Linda Schwartz: It's Geoff. But that's sweet.
Murray: Look, I know she talks a lot about her family. But to her, you're family.
Quote from Beverly
Essie Karp: I'll tell ya what. If you can go ten minutes without making a single reference to yourself.
Linda Schwartz: Your kids.
Virginia Kremp: Your opinions.
Essie Karp: Your sweaters.
Virginia Kremp: Your couponing expertise.
Essie Karp: How Farrah Fawcett stole your look.
Linda Schwartz: Your matchmaking.
Virginia Kremp: Let's not forget about the cookbook.
Essie Karp: Then you'll have proven us wrong.
Beverly: And what happens when I immediately prove you all wrong?
Virginia Kremp: Well, then, we will admit you're right, and then for the next ten brunches, all we'll do is talk about you.
Beverly: That's my dream. Challenge accepted, suckas.
Quote from Beverly
Essie Karp: I mean, I knew Babs had range, but watching her play a young male farmer? I mean, transcendent.
Beverly: Oh, well, speaking of cookbooks-
Virginia Kremp: Uh, no one's speaking of cookbooks, Beverly. We were actually just talking about "Yentl."
Beverly: Yeah, well, now speaking of cookbooks. Um, did I mention I'm writing a cookbook?
Essie Karp: You mean the cookbook you've somehow managed to work into every conversation in the last month?
Beverly: That's probably the one, yes.
