There was a rocking chair in the rec-room and Eostre sat in it with both of the twins settled in her arms. She'd come up to the compound meaning to help Ruth with preparing dinner but Mack had been grumbly...at all. (ooc: I really needed a happy, fuzzy post with babies today, so, please, tag in to meet the twins, visit the twins or mock Eostre's singing. For reference, Eostre is singing DREAM ANGUS ).
Having spoken to Mr. Redman, Mrs. Bennet was determined to move closer to Jane, and he had promised her a room in the house he was building, which was impressively large, quite enough to house a dozen...from her bedroom.

Mrs. Bennet had faithfully promised Jane to look after breakfast for Monday morning. And why should she not? Breakfast for many people was something that the mistress of a house did, though she wished...the island.

Of a normal day, Jane might be exhausted to cook for so very long, only to follow it by hours of proper cleaning, but today, she had experienced several days of rest and the sheer elation of waking up...to her family and how delighted she was to have Elizabeth back. It made everything seem like it would be naught but perfect from now on. [Monday! Tag a happy Jane, tag each other, enjoy the food]
