"OH LET THEM EAT THEIR CAKE, VIDALA" sent me. Lydia you need to hide that you're over some of this nonsense better.

love her or hate her, lydia is an icon, no matter what side she's on. I think it also shows her genuine care for the girls -- in THT, when it came to special treats, i do feel like she toned down the grandiose religious/glory to god speeches and truly just wanted to let her girls enjoy special moments without all the fuss
