My Book Beginnings is taken from THE TASTE OF AIR by Gail Cleare:

 "Her day began with reassuring rituals.  Make the beds, start a load of laundry, empty the dishwasher. After lining up shiny crystal tumblers inside the glass-fronted cabinets, she filled the upper shelves with neatly nested plates, bowls, and cups.  Her finger found a chipped edge, and she tossed the imperfect saucer into the garbage."
