In response to I'm speechless (for a change), written by Golda on September 16, 1998 at 17:48:35

Back to the LibraryI just dropped in peruse the Tess posts, though I'm not reading along, and I wanted to say hi. It was fun meeting you this summer: the "speechless" could apply to us both!

I had a little P&P deja vu yesterday that you might find amusing. I was typing house descriptions for a fund-raising house tour in Westchester when I came acoss the phrase "the study boasts a custom-designed oversize fireplace, with an 10' wide, tumbled-marble mantle and mahogany surround." I had a flash of Mr. Collins and his chimney-piece! I guess ogling rich folks' mansions is an age-old pursuit. At least our tour book doesn't give actual costs!

I hope to be less busy soon and will try to participate in the next group read, so I'll be looking for you.
