Older Period Dramas Game {1}

The game this week is a screencap game but the theme of these screencaps is that they all come from period dramas (or TV series) that were filmed in the 1990's or before. Even though these period dramas are slightly older they are such lovely classic films that deserve a little extra attention.

To Play: Look at the screencaps below and leave a comment guessing which period dramas they are from. I'll respond with your score. Answers will be posted next week.

Scoring: One point for each correctly guessed period drama. A high score of 10 points can be earned.

The Happy Tag

The colors in this photo make me happy!

I've seen The Happy Tag on a few different blogs including Wonderland Creek, Hamlette's Soliloquy and Times And Seasons Of A Beautiful Life. The idea alone made me happy so I had to give it a try. For my answers I'm focusing more on things that I've enjoyed and have made me happy recently.

The rules are simple, list things under the categories of Books, Words, Movies & TV, Fictional Characters, Scents, Songs and Miscellaneous that make you happy. You can tag other people specifically but most people just tag anyone who wants to have some fun posting it.

So many books, so little time!

Books: Far From The Madding Crowd // The Secret Adversary // Katherine Wentworth // Celia's House // The Bridge // Miss Buncle's Book // Northanger Abbey - always and forever!

Found this Persuasion (1995) photo on Tumblr, made my day since I'd never seen it before!

Words: Elegance // Elegant // Hope // Joyful // Loveliness // Sunshine // Spring // Delightful // Gorgeous // Exquisite // Melody // Kindness // Pendant // Daffodil // Forsythia // Ostentatious (neat to say) // Sassafras (my kitty's name!)

My sister and I are official Hearties now!

Movies & TV: Foyle's War (TV series) // Far From The Madding Crowd (2015) // Poirot (TV series) // The Importance Of Being Earnest // Rosemary & Thyme (TV series) // Midsomer Murders (TV series) // When Calls The Heart (TV series) // Death In Paradise (TV series) // The Great British Baking Show

Bathsheba's red outfit is so striking!

Fictional Characters: Gabriel Oak // Bathsheba Everdene // Tommy & Tuppence Beresford // Hercule Poirot // Henry Tilney // Elizabeth Thatcher // Jack Thornton // Margaret Lesley

This lamp! I must own one some day! 

Scents: Lilacs // Citrus & Sage candle // Teatime candle // Chocolate cupcakes // Italian food // Coffee // Homemade pizza // Fresh squeezed lime juice // Cinnamon rolls // Dragonfruit Devotion Tea from Teavana

Woman At A Window (1822), painted by Caspar David Friedrich

Songs (with links to listen!): Stepping In The Light // We Have Heard The Joyful Sound (Jesus Saves) // Once Upon A Dream // Lemonade // Wallander Opening Credits (Nostalgia) // The Ballad of Midsomer County (so tragic!) // Let No Man Steal Your Thyme // Poldark Main Theme // Medhel an Gwyns // Annie Laurie // On The Banks Of Alan Water // The Crystal Spring // Up In The Morning Early (Tune: Cold and Raw)

My sweetheart Sassy girl

Miscellaneous: Watching old Disney movies with my sister (who has never seen them!) // A local bookstores I just discovered // Thrift shops // My work // Sleep // Scarves // Crocheting // Pinterest // Audiobook sales on Audible // Playing Sequence with my family // Cinnamon rolls // Writing  // Reading writing inspiration quotes/posts on Pinterest // Snuggling with my kitty!
