Friday Favorites: Emma - Jane Fairfax is Coming to Town
Description
After another morning of hearing Harriet pine over Mr. Elton, Emma decides to change up their morning routine and call on the Bateses. While Mrs. and Miss Bates aren't Emma's favorites, she judges the visit to be better than Harriet's endless moping. Over tea, Emma learns that Miss Bates's niece, Jane Fairfax, will be on her way to Highbury very soon, for an extended stay of three months. The conversation with Miss Bates is winding and tedious -- a bore for Emma, but perfect for falling asleep. So settle in with this week's Friday Favorites and let the loquacious and long-winded Miss Bates be your companion as you make your way into another night of soft and restful sleep.
