Quote of the Day ~

You're never safe from surprise till you're dead.
~ Mrs. Rachel Lynde



This. Is a very big quote in my family. We use it a ton. It's best used with a Southern Accent. Preferably Texan. Enjoy, lol.

Ok, Les Miserables was one of the best books ever. Some of the "commentary" chapters were really boring, but the rest was awesome.

My Antonia (and yes, Willa Cather lol) was good. Warm fuzzies and such is what I remember.

I don't know if I've read precisely Tales of such and such...but don't read at night...really.

The Girl of the Limberlost was really good, way better than that dumb movie...lol.

And A Tale of Two Cities is the best Dickens ever. Ever. I cried. Oh, David Copperfield is good too. =D

Oh, and that Rachel Lynde quote? Awesome! We have a saying of hers we use a lot too. "I'm known throughout these parts as a woman who speaks her mind." =D
