noun

a person who is friendly to or admires England or English customs,institutions, etc.

I'd say I probably fall into this category and for that I blame my sisters. They both have been drinking that British cool-aid (or tea rather heh) since middle school. I live with my sister and I like to tease her about having to wake up to her Doctor Who shrine every morning. 

I suppose there are worse things I could wake up to. :)

Growing up they introduced me to the comedic stylings of these uh . . .  beautiful people. haha

 Back row: Graham Chapman, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam

Front row: Terry Jones, John Cleese, Michael Palin

They are the master minds behind Monty Python and the Holy Grail. . .

and Monty Python's Flying Circus.

In the last couple of years British television has finally been coming back into the limelight. As a result, it seems like Americans have finally discovered the quick wit and dry humor of British television that I originally fell in love with. 

Downton Abbey

The IT Crowd

Doctor Who

Sherlock

And all their beautiful accents. . . just the cherry on top!

And now for something completely different. :)

I feel so blessed to know that the Lord has a plan for me. He knew exactly where I needed to go on a mission. I am so excited to be amongst these amazing people. To serve them and the Lord with all my heart, might, mind, and strength. Doctrine and Covenants 4
