A Lady's Ruminations

"Jane was firm where she felt herself to be right." -Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: United States

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.

NR Needs You!

From National Review Online:

The U.S. Postal Board of Governors recently decided to jack up mailing rates on periodicals, with a disproportionate share of the increase falling on smaller, independent publishers — such as National Review. Our estimated hike is a whopping 16 percent, which will cost well over $100,000. Other publishers face increases of 20 percent and up — this is sure to put some out of business.
