"We had tea from bright blue cups under the pink light of the giant hollyhock. We were all a little drugged with the country; a little bucolic I thought."
~ Virginia Woolf, A Writer's Diary

Interesting parallel between L. M. Montgomery and Anne’s lives:
“When [Montgomery] was teaching at Lower Bedeque in 1898, her grandfather suddenly died and she returned immediately to Cavendish to take care of her grandmother who would otherwise have to leave her home.”
Source: The Original Homes of Lucy Maud Montgomery by Agatha Krzewinski (anneofgreengables.com)
As readers can well figure, this must be what inspired Montgomery to have Anne stay home from school to care for Marilla after Matthew died unexpectedly. Anne saved Marilla, who was suffering from declining eyesight, from having to leave Green Gables and board elsewhere, just as Montgomery did for her grandmother.
