Meanwhile, I spent yesterday reading Alcott's Rose in Bloom for fun (it's one of those favorite books I tend to go back to just for comfort, although you definitely have to suspend a modern perspective, or you'll start screaming when [spoilers?]one character gives up a career for The Man She Loves, and another dies for the Horrible Sin of Stumbling Home Drunk on New Year's Day) and a ton of documents at victorianlondon.org--I don't know why I ever doubt that that site will have exactly what I need, because it solved several problems I was having with hotel dining, dinner parties, servant duties, and Death in the Household, as one helpful article was called.
Two requests and a bunch of linkspam from y'all, from the Raiders of the Lost Ark warehouse that is my inbox:

Hmm. I think I'll save the linkspam proper for later, rather than overwhelm everyone now.
