Sense and Sensibility Mosaic

Oh, how I love Sense and Sensibility!
The 1995 version of Sense and Sensibility introduced me to Jane Austen and got me hooked to the regency period. The fashion, the dancing, the romance, the chivalry....need I go on?!

Thanks for the S'mores receipe.I will try it as they sound yummy.

I like the mosaic! My favourite Jane Austen films are the '95 Sense and Sensibility and the BBC Emma.I've also grown to enjoy the1981 BBC Sense and Sensibility as the characters of Col Brandon and Edward Ferrars seem closest to the novel.

The Austen films helped to develop my interest in 19th century fashion and manners.

The Civil War Reenactment looks like a lot of fun.It's also nice to have a reason to wear those dresses!

Annika's Birthday

Image
On Mother's Day weekend, I went to Bend for Annika's 4th Birthday! I missed last year's because of Mother's Day. I asked my mom if it was okay with her if I went to Annika's Birthday Party, since I haven't seen them in so long and because of missing last years. Of course, she said "yes". And yes, I made it back in time to let my mom know that I love her! This is Annika when she turned 3, last year. It was so great to see the family! But the biggest change was Eli!! Wow, he grew up! But a few things haven't changed with him too, which made me realize he was the same Eli! I also got to chat with my friend, Megan, who is now their nanny! They are blessed to have her, and vice versa! While the kids were having their Birthday fun, Megan and I got caught up since last we saw each other. She shared pictures of when she was in Germany, being a nanny. Quite an adventure and learning experience for her! Annika had a princess party, which I believe was ...

Memories of “Little Women”

Image
  As you read this, listen to the YouTube soundtrack of Little Women, as it will take you to that place of old and  bring back memories of your own. E very time I watch “Little Women”, it brings back my fondest memories of my sisters and mom. My mom, sister (Kristen), and I made a special trip to Portland to see this movie in December of 1994.  I remember it being a cold day as we walked into the warm, huge, and packed theater.  The sense of warmth of the theater, and  all the people made me know that this was going to be a special movie.  And must I say, that was the most comfortable theater chair I ever sat in! Once those opening credits started, I started having goosebumps just from the beautiful and powerful music!  Then being taken away to a world that I never been before, for I had never read the book.    W e laughed… and cried… …and was quite frustrated that Laurie and Jo never married!  Come one!  Oh well! ...
