ANNE WITH AN 'E' S01E02 Review

"Must obliged"

What surprised me is that when Matthew said, "She is my daughter." The reaction on Anne's face was so powerful - from being an orphaned who belonged to no one to being a member of the Cuthberts which they allowed her write her own name on the family book. Well, again, I know they'll keep them, but still it was emotional.

That is about $2,500 on today’s currency! Who can deny the glistening luster of glass, as well as its many, many usages! Glass comes from rather peculiar properties, you see its base is pure silica sand. Now, what is silica sand? It is composed of the mineral quartz, which is a compound of the elements silicon and oxygen. To make it even better, soda ash and lime or potash and lime are added to the sand.
