REPOST: The Costumes of “Victoria: Season 1”
by Maribeth
As I take a month’s hiatus from writing new content for my blog, I invite you to revisit with me a few of my old posts. This first one was written in April of 2018 and remains, in my opinion, one of the prettiest posts I’ve ever put together. Enjoy the frills and folderols–and yes, still feel free to leave comments! I’m not ghosting … Read More REPOST: The Costumes of “Victoria: Season 1”
I Ship it Like Fedex (AKA, The Other Valentine’s Day Post)
by Maribeth
Thank you so much for all the encouraging comments on last week’s post! I appreciate each and every one, and I’m so glad if that “recycled” article blessed you in your own purpose-filled journey. But as content as I now am in my singleness, I’m still a hopeless romantic–especially when it comes to stories. I love a good old-fashioned fairytale–all the best love stories … Read More I Ship it Like Fedex (AKA, The Other Valentine’s Day Post)

Light and Dark on Baker Street
by Maribeth
I am dismissive of the virtuous, unaware of the beautiful, and uncomprehending in the face of the happy. So if I didn’t understand I was being asked to be best man, it is because I never expected to be anybody’s best friend…and certainly not the best friend of the bravest and kindest and wisest human being I have ever had the good fortune of … Read More Light and Dark on Baker Street

Summertime Mini-Reviews in 100 Words or Less
by Maribeth
A year ago I did 6 Movie Reviews in 100 Words or Less. Today, amid preparations for our annual “deep housecleaning” and continuing the long, hard slog of finishing Lionhearted 4.0 (finally hit the halfway point, thank goodness), I’m once again setting for myself this fun little summertime challenge! Here are four mini-reviews for you in 100 words or less: one TV show and three movies. … Read More Summertime Mini-Reviews in 100 Words or Less
The D-Day Blogathon: “Band of Brothers” Spotlight
by Maribeth
Last month, Eva of Coffee, Classics, & Craziness and Hamlette of Hamlette’s Soliloquy announced they’d host a “blogathon” in honor of the 75th anniversary of D-Day. They encouraged the blogging world to write about the Normandy landings, and if we liked, we could review books, movies, and TV shows on the subject. These articles would then be featured on their sites between June 6-8 … Read More The D-Day Blogathon: “Band of Brothers” Spotlight
The Ultimate Doctor Who Review, Part Two
by Maribeth
On Tuesday I shared my thoughts on the Russell T. Davies Era of Doctor Who (the Ninth and Tenth Doctors). Today I’m so excited to share my thoughts on the Steven Moffat Era (the Eleventh and Twelfth Doctors)! Please remember that the Moffat Era did bring me into Doctor Who, so my personal views/preferences are colored by that. But in sharing certain opinions, I … Read More The Ultimate Doctor Who Review, Part Two
The Ultimate Doctor Who Review, Part One
by Maribeth
I’ve been looking forward to writing this ever since I got four whole series of Doctor Who for Christmas! I’ve already reviewed Series 8, Series 9, and Series 10, but except for this very old (and slightly preachy) post from 2012 and an announcement back in 2017 that I’d started watching Series 7, I haven’t really talked about anything pre-Twelfth Doctor in much detail. So let’s do … Read More The Ultimate Doctor Who Review, Part One
The Fantastical and Felicitous Fictional Character Blog Tag
by Maribeth
Emily of the delightful blog The Altogether Unexpected included me in this fun tag! It’s been a while since I got to really fangirl on this blog (and I get to do it again next time for my Ultimate Doctor Who Recap Post, yippee!). I’m so excited about finally getting around to answering her questions! (This will be a long post, so if you’re not interested … Read More The Fantastical and Felicitous Fictional Character Blog Tag
TV Review: Victoria, Season 3
by Maribeth
After a week’s respite from blogging, I’m happy to report that 1) I’m officially a Camp NaNoWriMo winner, 2) I finished Victoria: Season 3, and 3) I SAW AVENGERS: ENDGAME. Y’all need to give me another week to process (and recover from) Endgame before I share my review, haha. As for Camp NaNo, I’m thrilled with my results, but not quite ready to share … Read More TV Review: Victoria, Season 3
