Downton Abbey devotees have been sulking here in the US for over a week,
much like our friends across the pond, with the astonishing end to season three.
My mother cheered us up with these delightful sugar cookies from her local bakery, Le Bakers Dozen.
I ate them all in a momentary lapse of reason and now I feel even worse!
Have you been watching this riveting Masterpiece Classic?

Holly those cookies are darling, especially the castle, did you save it for last?
Yes, here I've been drinking more tea than ever, and watching season three again from the beginning to see if I missed some clue. Oh, and to linger over all the details I missed!
Through wrong timing etc, I have missed season three even though I adore the series. Now, I am afraid to watch!..
Adorable cookies! XX
I love the series and was devastated at the ending! I didn't see it coming at all. Apparently the actor who plays Matthew had wanted to leave for awhile so people who follow the show closely were not surprised. The loss of two main characters in one season is too much!
I watched the first and second season here on french tv. Unfortunately, this beautiful historical series does not seem to please to the directors of channels because the series disapeared of the screen. Well, one day or another it will be broadcast again !
The cookies are so pretty and look delicious.
Have a nice day. Helene
Julie: Order of eating: ladies maid, dowton, highclere castle, teapot. :)
Annamaria: You still have to watch it! Don't be alarmed!
Elizabeth: I was blissfully ignorant of the scuttlebutt surrounding Matthew Crawley! Knowing that the season airs earlier in the UK, I closed my eyes and ears, wanting to be surprised and boy was I ever!
The Red Berry: Oh, that's terrible. Can you rent the DVD?
Oh yes indeedy. There will be more to come I believe and I for one am really looking forward to that!xx
All three seasons in January alone. I am going through withdrawals. I have always been a Masterpiece Theater fan so I'll find some more shows to watch.
Jess: I just can't imagine what will happen next.
Donna: Yes, after a three season marathon I can only imagine your pangs. I suggest cranford or the forsyte saga or great expectations to see you through. :)

Sunday nights are not the same. Maybe I'll get more painting done? Love your work.
Catharine: Yes, more time to paint!
I love Downton Abbey! A British woman on vacation spoiled the ending for me, then asked if I had seen the last show yet, I had not. :(
The end was still a shocker.
Carol: Oh, that's the worst! Of course, I have probably spoiled it for those who haven't seen the ending too! My apologies all! :(
