"Older women are like aging strudels - the crust may not be so lovely, but the filling has come at last into its own"

About this Quote

This quote is a funny way of stating that older women are frequently ignored and underestimated, however they have a lot to offer. The crust of an aging strudel may not be as appealing as a freshly-baked one, but the filling is still delicious. Likewise, older ladies may not have the exact same youthful charm as more youthful females, however they have a wealth of experience and knowledge that can be invaluable. They have entered into their own and ought to be valued for the distinct qualities they give the table. This quote is a tip to not ignore the worth of older females and to value them for the life experience and wisdom they need to offer.
