    Northanger Abbey was her way of poking fun at the Gothic Novels of the day, in particular that one. It's very fun. Austen is so witty.

    Hi Anne, congratulations 🎉❤ on your engagement!!!
    So sorry to hear your kitty’s have been poorly. Sending lots of love and positive energy for full recovery ❤️‍🩹
    Your basket weaving course sounded like lots of fun. I’d certainly would love to give it a go one day xx

    So sorry to hear about your kitty's health problems. I really empathize with you, as we went through tremendous worry and anguish with one of our cats who was sick off and on over the last 4 years, and we had to put to sleep last year Dec 21st. Praying your little guy will be healthy now. And wonderful news about your engagement !! Congratulations!

    • @caprinecottage
      @caprinecottage  Месяц назад

      Oh I'm so sorry for your loss. It's always such an emotional struggle with our sweet furry family members. We just have to do the best we can for them. He really does seem to be healing even if it's a little slow going. Thank you so much!🥰🤎

    • @caprinecottage
      @caprinecottage  Месяц назад

      Oh I'm so happy someone else likes them too! 😂 As an American I have no idea how they are perceived in the UK, just that I love them. (I assume they are somewhat traditional?) Thank you so much! Kitty babies are slowly improving. 🤎

    Hi, Anne! Nice chatty video…! First off, congratulations to you and Caleb! That’s wonderful news. Secondly, sorry to hear about your kitty troubles. That’s always so worrisome, isn’t it? I’m sending you good vibes for healthier times ahead for all of your fur babies! Thirdly, I ADORE “Jane Eyre” and totally agree with you about “Wuthering Heights”. I went through a Jane Austin and Emily Bronte reading phase during my undergraduate years, so I’m basically in agreement with you about them…! Fourthly, I once visited the American Quilt Museum in Bath, England with my friend from London. In the gift store, I bought a large-ish tea towel that depicts various kinds of roses on it. When I got home, I had it framed as a memento of my trip, and it’s been hanging on my wall ever since! Something you might want to do with the items Kate sent you??? Also, I, similar to you, have a “thing” for McVities biscuits (cookies - the dark chocolate covered ones!), and every time I come home from England, I bring 6-8 packs of them home with me! I try to make them last as long as possible…! 😋 they’re not gluten free, I don’t think, but that’s not a problem for me anyway. Take care, and I hope you get your knitted gifts done soon! 🥰🥰🥰

      Congratulations to you and Caleb🎉 What a happy news😊 But then, I’m sorry about your kitty😞 you must be very worried. I’m sending you a big hug and good vibes!
      I must confess, I’ve never read any of books by any Brontës though I’ve seen some films (including this super old French film “Brontë Sisters” ) and do own a Penguin Book mug with Jane EyreI😑 But, I’ll definitely pick up one of all those books next year😤

    • @caprinecottage
      @caprinecottage  Месяц назад

      Thank you! I'm so excited. Luckily he's slowly healing and the vet seems to think he's on a good trajectory, but yes so much worry. Thank you for your kind words and virtual hug!🤎
      I think you might enjoy the books. Sometimes it can be hard for me to focus when reading them but I like the stories anyway. ☺️

    Sorry to hear about your cat, I hope everything turns out alright; my mom's 11 year old dog had an operation not so long ago to take out stones from her bladder as she was bleeding heavily so I now what you're going through both mentally as economically. How sweet that you got such a lovely package from Wales. It made be laugh so much when you picked up the mini bakewell tarts as I understand you perfectly, I get excited also when I get to eat something from the UK that I haven't had in ages😅 Btw, I love Wuthering Heights, it's my favourite book...Heathcliff is rather "peculiar" but portrays (I reckon) 100% the masculine vibe of that era😂😂😂❤ Take care, lots of love from Spain (right now we have 15°C ..about 59°F)

    • @caprinecottage
      @caprinecottage  Месяц назад

      Oh its so challenging with our sweet furry family members. I hope your mom's dog is also healing. It's so emotionally taxing.
      Kate is truly so kind and thoughtful , I couldn't even believe the beautiful things she chose to send me. 😂 There are so many UK foods that I love and can't get here, I'm sure its often the same for you in Spain.
      I think that is probably so true about Heathcliff! A good perspective.
      Thanks so much! Sounds like Spain is lovely in the winter. 🤎

    I have read all of Jane Austin’s books, and I liked Northanger Abbey. If you haven’t read Villette by Charlotte Brontë, I highly recommend it 🥰. Wishing your cats recovery and good health ❤️

    • @caprinecottage
      @caprinecottage  Месяц назад +1

      Multiple people here in the comments have said its good. I'll definitely be reading it! So funny that you bring up Villette, I own a copy of it! Its a big hard cover though and its heavy so I've put off reading it. You've encouraged me to get over it. 😂 Thank you for your well wishes, kitties are slowly improving.🤎

    • @simoneclarke5104
      @simoneclarke5104 Месяц назад +1

      @@caprinecottage happy your kitties are improving 💞. I searched high & low for a used copy of Villette and couldn’t find one. I ended up listening to the audio book. It is my favourite Brontë book, I loved it❤️

  • @Bookupied
    @Bookupied Месяц назад

    Hahahahah Wuthering Heights is my fave classic gothic book, but it’s okay ;) Northanger Abbey is HILARIOUS! It’s a satire, def recommend! My controversial take is that Jane Eyre sucks 😂

    • @caprinecottage
      @caprinecottage  Месяц назад

      😂 😂 I knew this would be the case for some and also would never be offended. And now I want to read Northanger Abbey even more. It sounds great.

    Congratulations on your engagement :) Sorry your kitty isn't feeling good. Poor buh. Give him a scritch under the chin from me. I totally get the stupidly expensive cat food and vet bills issue. I've got one with Pancreatitis. I think I've paid for the Vet's kid's college tuition at this point. Hugs to both of you. Also, love your mug. That handle is great.

    • @caprinecottage
      @caprinecottage  Месяц назад +1

      Thank you so much!
      Our poor little guy. I certainly will, he's been extra cuddly lately since he isn't feeling well. It's so true. At this point I'm just throwing money at the problem and hoping it fixes it. So far so good, the vet feels that his healing is taking a normal trajectory and he really does seem to be improving so 🤞 It is exhausting figuring it all out. Hope your baby continues to do well even with the condition.
      So happy you also appreciate the goat mug. Truly a prized possession 😂🤎
