Fun posts
Fun with WordPress Plugins! Take my “How Well do you Know the Regency?” quiz and share the results with the world! (also, any suggestions for improvement in quiz format and presentation are welcome)
One of the questions has some long answer possibilities, so that one may look a bit strange. But let’s get going!
Tell us how you did in the comments, too!

Risky Megan and I once engaged in a Shoe-Off over at my blog. Despite the fact that I cheated by voting for my shoes as many times as I could, I lost. Badly.
However, I have bought myself a pair of boots.
I hereby challenge Risky Megan to another shoe-off, pitting my new boots (when they arrive at my house) against the footwear of her choice.
You, too, may play along. In the comments here at anytime until satisfaction is rendered, post a link to a photo of your dueling-est shoes. It’s OK if someone else is wearing them.
I’ll figure out whose shoes duel whose or something.
So, Megan, are you up to the challenge?
Yes. I WILL cheat again if I have to, but I’m thinking I won’t need to.
Lavender and Lady Bugs
This is about as Christmas-y as my part of California gets. I took this picture back in September but those two ladybugs are so cute!
Wishing you a wonderful holiday season and the very happiest New Year.
Love
Risky Carolyn
Caption This! Leave your suggested Caption in the comments. I have a few of my own below.
“Title Me”
“Title me” is actually pretty dang funny caption because, you see, she’s coming downstairs to greet the handsome Lord Rakesalot….
What else? How about this?
Gown: check
Coat: check
Hat: check
Shoes?
What are yours? Feel free to add facts if needed.
In the comments, if you don’t mind, answer one or more of these questions:
1. Name a few of your favorite historical romances. Books you’d want with you if you were stuck some place for a long time.
2. Are there types of stories you miss?
3. Duke. Pro or Con?
I’ll answer to get things started.
Mary Balogh’s A Summer To Remember is one of my all time faves. I loved Amanda Quick’s Ravished. I loved Karen Robard’s Loving Julia.
I miss the the big honking saga. I wish there were more Gothics. Once, I read a Regency-Set vampire book and I totally hated it. But now I wouldn’t mind. I can’t explain that.
Pro.
But that doesn’t mean I’m not open to non-dukes.
