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.

Penblwydd Hapus to the Gorgeous Mr. Gruffudd!

Today is the 32nd birthday of my favorite actor, Ioan Gruffudd. Have a look at the birthday celebrations at Ioan Online. Ioan is Welsh and his name is pronounced "Yo-awn Griffith." You can hear him pronounce it at Ioan Online.


Ioan has starred in the marvelous Horatio Hornblower films, as Lancelot in King Arthur, as "Mr. Fantastic" in Fantastic Four, and will be seen next year in Amazing Grace as William Wilberforce, who converted to Evangelism and worked to end slavery in the British Empire.

He's an excellent actor and I highly recommend seeing his movies (and not just because I fancy him!).


Penblwydd Hapus, Ioan!
Happy Birthday, Ioan!



I wish you a wonderful day and a blessed year! God bless you!
