You’re just a bee charmer, Idgie Threadgoode. That’s what you are, a bee charmer.
It’s funny, most people can be around someone and then gradually begin to love them and never know exactly when it happened; but Ruth knew the very second it happened to her. When Idgie had grinned at her and tried to hand her that jar of honey, all those feelings that she had been trying to hold back came flooding through her, and it was at that second in time that she knew she loved Idgie with all her heart. That’s why she had been crying, that day. She had never felt that way before and she knew she would never feel that way again.
She had no idea why she wanted to be with Idgie more than anybody else on this earth, but she did.Fried Green Tomatoes by Fannie Flagg
