2025 month by month with the Nature Notes of an Edwardian lady

Picture In 2024 I did a series of posts each month on Instagram, accompanied by Edith Holden's famous and beautifully illustrated book: "The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady", then at the end of the year I put them all into a blog post. Well this is the sequel to that, a second year's worth of monthly posts with her second, equally beautiful book, "The Nature Notes of an Edw Read more of this blog post »

“Sherlock Holmes had been right. I grinned at my brother and sister. Everything indeed comes in circles.”
Bethany Willcock, Everything

“Helene nodded thoughtfully. “What could have been so secret that you’d want to hide it from your own sister?” she wondered.
“Half-sister,” I corrected. “Thankfully, or we’d have been related to her too. How grim would that have been!”
“Rather grim,” Helene agreed.”
Bethany Willcock, Everything

“Vincent grinned at his
sisters. “What did Mr Holmes always say? The world is full of obvious things that no one ever observes.”
Bethany Willcock, Joy
