Hi, Rose, I think if Jane Austin alive she would be very happy that she has such fan like you. Both of yours birthday are in the same month. Like you I also like her stories. I am not reading all her books. I only read a few books of her. Yes, I strongly believe that Jane Austin is the best writers in the early 1800’s. Now I learned from your writing that Jane Austin’s favorite foods were “turkey, duck, roast, mashed potatoes, gravy, corn, rolls and a special Birthday cake.”

Well written with beautiful images.
