The answer to yesterday's quote comes from the book, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. I'm sorry to say that I am only now reading it for the first time! But better late than never! For those of you also wanting to delve into this wonderful literary work, just remember it takes a little more concentration to read the English language at its finest-don't give up, you can do it and enjoy it!
Congrats to Keri-she had read a previous clue off of my chalkboard from the same book.

My hubby had the day off from work today because of the Holiday tomorrow and we decided to take a trip over to the Mayfield Dairy. They offer a tour of the operations and then a generous scoop of any of their delicious flavors of ice cream for only a buck. The kids thought it was short, but fun and the ice cream was delicious! Here are some pics from our frozen adventure!:

Today's quote: (This one is incredibly easy, but I love it!)
“Who is Aslan?” asked Susan.
“Aslan?” said Mr. Beaver, “Why don't you know? He's the King…It is he, not you, that will save Mr. Tumnus…”
“Is-is he a man?” asked Lucy.
“Aslan a man!” said Mr Beaver sternly. “Certainly not. I tell you he is the King of the wood and the son of the great Emperor-Beyond-the-Sea. Don't you know who is the King of Beasts? Aslan is a lion-the Lion, the great Lion.”
“Ooh!” said Susan. “I'd thought he was a man. Is he-quite safe? “I shall feel rather nervous about meeting a lion.”
“That you will, dearie, and no mistake,” said Mrs. Beaver, “if there's anyone who can appear before Aslan without their knees knocking , they're either braver than most or else just silly.”
“Then he isn't safe?” said Lucy.
“Safe?” said Mr. Beaver. “Don't you hear what Mrs. Beaver tells you? Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But he's good. He's the King, I tell you.”
“I'm longing to see him,” said Peter, “even if I do feel frightened when it comes to the point.”
