Some things.

So I tried my hand at making macaroons with GWTBS (Girl With The Broken Smile, your name is LONG) a few days ago, and as you can see in her post, they turned out...




...not so good.

 They tasted amazing though. I shall try my hand at making them again today!

Anyway, I made this post primarily to talk about one thing:


 

North and South.
If you didn't realise.

 North and South is the BBC adaptation of a novel by Elizabeth Gaskell, an it is amazing. The adaptation was by the same woman who did the BBC Emma adaptation, which I thought was wonderful, but this kind of blew it out of the water. Mostly because of Richard Armitage. He acts so well in this, you can feel the love. Gah! I've been watching the last scene on repeat basically for the last few days.

I think it will remind a lot people of Pride and Prejudice, but here, the characters have to grow and change much more so, and it makes the characters so much more real (Not that I don't love Pride and Prejudice or anything).

For anyone wanting to watch it, it's up on Youtube. It's a four part series. It maybe a little slow at the start, but stick with it and you fall in love...

Some pictures:

Sigh...

I love period dramas.
