"I can just imagine myself sitting down at the head of the table and pouring out the tea," said Anne, shutting her eyes ecstatically. "And asking Diana if she takes sugar! I know she doesn't but of course I'll ask her just as if I didn't know. And then pressing her to take another piece of fruit cake and another helping of preserves."

I've heard of an anglophile, have been of being one myself by my English relations. Is there such a thing as a Canuck-o-phile? Or are you just an Anne fan? Either way, I love you for it! :)
ReplyDeleteI do not trust a soul who is not an Anne fan!
ReplyDeleteToo much fun! Hope all is well with you, sweetie! I am under the weather, but pushing through!
