For advice for modern-ish questions, look no further at Austen‘s musings in letters and in her books. Some of the quotes used are hilarious, as I love Jane‘s wry humor. I like this as a good pick-me-up on days that are less than stellar. #Laughter #200PnPCovers

As I walked through the aisles of Dollar Tree, wearing Jane Austen socks, with Sende and Sensibility tucked under my arm (well, I have to do *something* while I stand in line), I came across this amazing find!

It's 87 degrees here in Oklahoma. I'm trying to think cooling thoughts by looking at this picture of the River Itchen following through Winchester England. ?
