My Name is Melissa ...

and I am addicted to shows made by the BBC.

Seriously.

I love them.

I want to take a walk in the garden,

take a turn about the room,

call the doctor for a poultice,

visit the parson,

and vacation in Bath.

Lately,

I have loved

"Larkrise to Candleford",

"Cranford",

and

the new "Emma"

with Jonny Lee Miller.

Nothing is more relaxing and enjoyable to me

than

a virtual trip to the English countryside.

And now I must leave you

to work on my embroidery

and

catch up on my correspondence.
