Pickpick

In honor of Elizabeth and Darcy happily ensconced at Pemberley - Bubbles to drink and I lit my new The Gardens at Pemberley Candle. It smells of Honeysuckle, Rose Petals, and Jasmine.
A toast to @sprainedbrain for bringing all us #Pemberlittens together. Delightful always.
#prideandprejudicereadalong 🥂🍾

Crinoline_Laphroaig As to the Annotated Edition - it's beautiful. But all the Footnotes distract from just reading the story. Found myself read Chapter 1st out of one of my other copies then going back a reading Footnotes. So I actually read the book twice. I'll have to count that on my Goodreads. 😉 4y
Crinoline_Laphroaig But I did learn a lot. For instance Last Chapter talked about how P & P has is the most Fairy-tale of her books. Handsome prince + Beautiful maiden. 4y
rubyslippersreads Gorgeous stack! 😍 4y

Crinoline_Laphroaig The continued explanation of phrases like 'wait on' or words like 'situation' got on my nerves. You have to be pretty well versed in Austen to spend the money on this book. But I'm definitely glad to have in my #collectionnotobsession . 📚 4y
sprainedbrain You do need to count that twice! I enjoyed all of your posts. So cheers to you as well! ❤️ 🥂 4y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @rubyslippersreads and light just hit perfectly! 4y

Tactful Darcy. You didn't qualify your family as the Gardiners and Jane. 🙊 @sprainedbrain

#Pemberlittens if your looking for more info about yesterday's mention of Hermitages this is the book you want. Also has pictures of Chawton. It's a favorite of mine. As I'm always striving for English Garden Dreams although my reality is Oklahoma. 😄

Went back and listened to yesterday's Chapter again. I just love that Chapter. And today's: "For what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbours, and laugh at them in our turn?" @sprainedbrain #obstinateheadstronggirl

"Obstinate, headstrong girl!" My favorite quote. I'm wearing it on my mask these days. Pictures are from a Social Distancing Party in the Park for a friend's 95th Birthday this week. I know all y'all will appreciate my new ring. It was gift from a friend who truly gets me. ?

In honor of Bingley finally popping the question: the cocktail of the day is the Cherry Bingley from Gin Austen.
1.5 ounces cachaca
1.5 ounce of cherry liqueur
.5 ounce lime juice
Club Soda
Shake with ice. Strain into glass filled with ice. Top with Club Soda. Garnish Lime wheel and cocktail cherry. 💍@sprainedbrain

Crinoline_Laphroaig Because I used Kirsch, which has no color, I added bit of cocktail cherry juice. Himself thought it needed to be sweeter so we add a splash of sugar syrup. 4y
alisiakae Yum! 4y
DebinHawaii That looks so good 😋and I really need that book! 4y

This has nothing to do with today's Chapter other than its my English Rose The Lady of Shalott and it's finally blooming.

"Wickham's a fool if he takes her with a farthing less than ten thousand pounds."

"All Meryton seemed striving to blacken the man who, but three months before, had been almost an angel of light." And then there's Mr. Collins "you are grievously to be pitied" so let me tell everyone I know about it. ?
