A Lady's Ruminations

I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

Fresh Banana Bread!


I've just taken two lovely loaves of Banana Bread out of the oven. The picture isn't a very good one. I love making it, but I haven't done so in a few months.

They appear to have turned out well. I'll have some for breakfast, toasted with butter.

The recipe I use comes from one put together by wives of Seattle Mariners as a charity event. The recipe is from retired Mariner's player Jay Buhner.
