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.

Tim Russert has died!

I'm absolutely shocked at the news that NBC's Tim Russert has died of a heart attack at the age of 58! Apparently he was just back from a vacation with his family in Italy, celebrating his son's college graduation, and was at work at NBC's Washington Bureau. I'm just shocked.

God bless his soul and his family. They and his colleagues are in my prayers.

More coverage here and here and here and here.
