Yeah, I love meeting other Jane Austen fans. We just had a string of Sunday nights called Jane and Tea with a bunch of girlfriends. PBS was showing Jane Austen movies on Sunday eve's from 8-10. So we'd all put our kiddos to bed and show up at our friend, Daria's house to watch together. It was a blast.

Which one is your favorite? I personally love pride and prejudice.
