Alabaster and Nard

"And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume"

Do you ever feel like you were born into the wrong era? I do. Constantly. People tell me so, as well. Constantly.

If you do feel such as I do, would you please tell me in which time period you wished you lived? I’d like to feel I’m not so alone in my musings.

For me, I’m torn between Regency England, the Edwardian era, and the 1940s.
