The Journal of Beatrix Potter from 1881 to 1897 | 
I found myself spontaneously watching this documentary (lower right) tonight on PBS and it was the most charming thing I've seen in ages. It's inspired me to curl up in bed and read bits from Potter's journal. ❤
DebinHawaii I wish our PBS channel here played the same things as other places. They do some of the same bigger programs & series but not always. 😒 Tonight was all country music. I would have loved this. I'll keep my eye out for it. 7y
shawnmooney Yay! 7y

LeahBergen @shawnmooney 😘 7y
LeahBergen @LeeRHarry I love her (and Hyacinth Bucket 😂). 7y
LeahBergen @quirkyreader She's wonderful. 7y
LeahBergen @saresmoore Oh, do try to hunt it down for a watch. It does a good job discussing how her books came to be AND has lots of cute little animals in it. It would be lovely family viewing. 7y
saresmoore @LeahBergen Sounds perfect. I will look for it! 7y
DeborahSmall Did she mention her time in Dunkeld in Scotland? They have a little Museum and beautiful grounds. My sisters house only a few miles away. I loved Beatrix Potter when I was younger. I'd love Sophie to have an interest 7y
LeahBergen @DeborahSmall Yes! They go there and Routledge sits where Beatrix penned the Peter Rabbit letters. They also show the fungi paintings she did while there. It was wonderful. 😀 7y
DeborahSmall @LeahBergen Aww I have to find this show! I love Dunkeld and the Beatrix Potter Gardens, they're beautiful, with lots of carved wooden characters around the walk ways. My sister is living in Edinburgh and renting her house out as she's going through a divorce. So I don't know when we'll get back up to visit. #selfishbitch lol 7y
LeahBergen @DeborahSmall Well, she bloody well better move to another place with literary attractions! 😂 7y
DeborahSmall @LeahBergen she's in Edinburgh so can't complain too much lol 7y
