Rainy Days

It is raining and I am hiding.... Melissa introduced me to the wonderful world of BBC....Have you ever watched "North and South"? I love it as much as Pride and Prejudice!
After Melissa left, I fully intended to take photos and post about my treasures, but instead I've been transported back in time to an era that I am captivated by. The fashions, the etiquette, the estates, the decor, the gardens....sometimes I'm not sure if I am watching the movie or just absorbing all the wonderful things in the background.
I have watched it 4 times! By myself and at various occasions in parts with my kids, and now Mr E is watching it with me. I can't wait to watch the last episode tonight.
SO I'm sorry I haven't posted anything. I'm watching TV!! And it is all Melissa's fault. :-)

PS.
I promise I will show you the wonderful buttons I found, and the crown jars to put them in, and I'll show you the quilt that I am finishing for my youngest while I am watching...
I've only got three more sides to hem. YAY!I wonder how many other BBC movies I will fall in love with as I finish this quilt....!

E!
Oh don't you love everything about those BBC productions?

Blame it on my E she is the one who started all of this.

North and South is so good!

Well at least you are finishing M's quilt.

I want to wear and have all of those clothes they wear.

Tell E that R likes the BBC just as much as we do.

Oh and it is really nice to be blamed for something as good as a BBC production...next Sunday we get to watch the last installment of Downton Abbey on Masterpiece Theatre...I can't wait!!

I knew you wouldn't mind being blamed for this.Really I should be giving you credit! You are helping me relax and it is something that we as a family can enjoy together. I so rarely watch TV, but on a rainy day it is a great way to pass the time.

North & South was one of my favourite miniseries ! Isn't that the one with Patrick Swayze and Lesley Ann Downe? Creative down times, I call them. When one watches a miniseries like N & S, it transports us to the simple ways of life and how to appreciate the beauty. Rainy days can be tremendous blessings towards our creative processes....I believe...
