  1. I can't believe I've never read a Jane Austen book... I need to change that asap!
    And #6? AMEN! Totally agree to that. Anytime we watch a movie set back in time I always tell my hubs I wished we dressed like that and that our towns would hold balls and dances like back in those days :)

  2. Ahhh I am such a Jane-ite, too! I got to take a class last spring all about Jane Austen. My professor would come to class wearing Regency costumes! She was so passionate about Austen, and it was an amazing course :)

    That is an AMAZING last name of Bliss! I think I'd have a hard time letting that one go! I think for some reason I always thought your blog name referred to marital bliss or something. Makes much more sense now! Haha

    And I can totally see the resemblance in all of those celebrities! Mehh wish I had so many fab celebrity lookalikes! :)

  3. I love fun fact posts. And I am totally going with Jen from the bachelor! That season she was on her wardrobe was the bomb!

  4. I love this! I always assumed your blog name meant that you were in marital bliss and working towards making a bean (like a baby) HA! That is too funny. I bet your male students loved having a hot teacher named Miss Bliss! That is hilarious and I totally see the resemblance to jessica simpson and something about your face looks like Jenn. Thanks for answering my questions girlie:)

  7. I loved Jen! She was a good bachelorette. Trishelle was crazy, she got on my nerves! Wonder what she is doing these days??

  8. I would love to have lived when it was all ruffles, corsettes, and pearls! :) Very Jane Austen...

    I thought the Bliss to Bean was a reference of wedding to children. I like the Miss Bliss much better though!

  9. I actually did wonder what Bliss to bean meant? LOL And I've never met anyone who said they wished they lived back when corsets and bustles were around!!! I always wished that too! Gone with the Wind is my all time favorite movie!! Pretty woman is also on my top ten list! Style of a Mrs.
