~Christmas~ 

that magic blanket that wraps itself about us, 

that something so intangible that it is like a fragrance.

It may weave a spell of nostalgia. Christmas may be a day of feasting,

or of prayer, but always it will be a day of remembrance

~a day in which we think of everything we have ever loved.

~The Writing Desk ~

As all of you have Probably Guessed already, I Love Jane Austen! She and all of Her Works are Some of my Greatest Muses. Pride and Prejudice was the Inspiration here. I find that Time Period Fascinating. The Customs and The Culture. 

“Affection is desirable. Money is absolutely indispensable!” – Mrs. Austen's Quote from Becoming Jane. That was a Young Woman's Plight during that time.
And the Plight of Parents ............

Elizabeth Bennet: [On Marriage] "Is that really all you think about? "
Mrs. Bennet: "When you have five daughters, Lizzie, tell me what else will occupy your thoughts, and then perhaps you can understand."  I Love this Line!

 Well It is another Wonderful Brag Monday! 

And our Hostess, our Good Friend Karen of the Graphics Fairy! If you haven't seen the new Sheet Music Image  You should have a Look! It is really Lovely!

Happy Monday Everyone!
