Tuesday Open Thread: Carnaval Edition

February 24, 2009
by

Yes, Gentle Readers, Lent approaches, so get your self-indulgences in while there’s still time! :-) Cub Reporter Heather L. pointed us to a great post on Jane Austen Club, a Portuguese-language blog by Adriana, a Janeite from Brazil. (The blog is one year old this week; congratulations!) Adriana has dressed up her Jane Austen Action Figure for Carnaval, as well as the Bennet sisters. Check it out! It’s adorable.

This is an open thread, so let us know what’s new in your patch of Janeiteville!

    This past weekend the San Francisco Ballet premiered their new version of the ballet Swan Lake. Never did I think Jane Austen would sneak her way into a ballet review!
