A new beginning...

Let me begin by saying how much I have missed blogging! I used to blog elsewhere, but the site got too slow and people were all moving to another site, so I just stopped. I finally decided to start blogging again (thanks to my dear friend), so here I am.

A bit about my blog name and title....As you probably noted from my profile, I love the Jane Austen book 'Sense & Sensibility'. Elinor is the main character who falls deeply in love with Edward Ferrars. Neither of them admit that they love each other throughout the book, so they are both heartbroken and miserable. Elinor was forced to move to Barton Cottage with her mother and 2 sisters after Mr. Dashwood (their husband/father) died. Finally towards the end of the book, Edward came to see her at Barton Cottage where he revealed his love for her and asked her to marry him. It is such an intense and passionate book, I highly recommend it!!

Here is the scene from the 1995 movie where Edward professes his love for Elinor. Ahhhh...such a sweet moment!

Hello dear friend!
What a great choice for a blog name. It is one of my very favorite movies too. :-)
With my husband away this week I will have to pull it out, grab the ice cream and a spoon and watch it!

Hi again! I have missed you! Thanks for letting me know where you've gone to. I just watched Pride & Prejudice the other night. I like the books better, but it's all great!
