Charlotte Brontë wrote of Jane Austen "I should hardly like to live with her ladies and gentlemen in their elegant but confined houses.‘ She concludes her demolition job with ‘these observations will probably irritate‘. Yes, Charlotte Brontë, they do irritate, as you could hardly have written Jane Eyre unless Jane Austen had previously constructed something worthy of demolition." ? #forshamecharlotte #mostdisagreeable #austeninaugust

Crinoline_Laphroaig @Ubookquitous It's my Parasol Protectorate name. Author Gail Carriger once did a thing about finding your PP name her blog. It's your most frivolous bit of clothing and your favorite food. My favorite food changes with the season but my love of Laphroaig is forever! 6y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @Ubookquitous I originally tried Laphroaig because Sam Heughan of Outlander said it was one of his favorites. It was love at first sip. 6y
