So you may not have heard (unless you stalk us…) we are having Pride and Prejudice parties!! At each party we will have a Jane Austen-y snack, a part of the AE Pride and Prejudice series, dressing up, and PICTURES! Also blogging afterwards.
Upon entering my comfortable home we conversed. Soon after we decided to take up a little reading, and chose to read aloud for each other’s amusement.
As you can see, there were some interruptions which were a quite disconcerting.
Soon we found ourselves congregating in the kitchen for a nibble of something to eat. Laura brought the most exquisite crepes and homemade raspberry jam. Emma and I were quite amazed at her mad skillz. They tasted delicious!
We soon settled down to enjoy Pride and Prejudice Part one. I often heard Emma and Laura make comments about the different actors, but we all enjoyed ourselves immensely. We especially had fun over Darcy’s bath scene. It was quite unexpected in a rather hilarious way. We saw nothing amiss, but were very shocked. After his bath, he proceeds to get into a bathrobe and stare at Elizabeth. It is rather odd.
After the movie we made sure to write some truly amazing letters. :) To Kemyla!!!
Now here are some real dresses from Jane Austen’s time, along with some paintings that show the dress and fashion. I just adore these!
{I got these pictures from sensibility.com—a most AWESOME place!}
Affectionately yours,
