Well... my shoulders are squared and I stand a little taller these days. A friend joined me at a Jane Austen Tea and Trivia event at Fanshawe Pioneer Village near London, Ontario. After enjoying cucumber sandwiches, many delightful sweets, and tea, the competition began.
At first, I worried I would be embarrassed at how little I knew of Miss Austen's novels, most specifically Mansfield Park, Northanger Abbey, and a significant portion of Persuasion. However, to my delight, my friend and I garnered second place. Three measly correct answers separated us from the champions, but I was quite satisfied with holding our own. While no prizes were awarded, other than bragging rights, which I have fully employed, I plan on brushing up on my trivia knowledge for next year.
Thank you, Paula, for indulging me in my JAFF obsession. I had fun.

The decision to monitor comments is due to blog trolls, worse than Mr. Collins extolling the excellence of boiled potatoes... Thank you for your patience.
