It should be, but it isn't.

It should warm and sunny out. With tulips getting ready to pop out and wish us Happy Spring. But it isn't. Its cold, gray and foggy. And that's ok. I love days like this. Especially when I a have a good book, cozy fire and a little hot chocolate. My sweet babies are sleeping peacefully and that makes me the happiest of all.
My book? Frenchman's Creek - Daphne Du Maurier

That picture is so gorgeous! I love it! It sounds like you love Classic Literature.

Nadia said...

Yes, I do. Have you read any du Maurier? I am loving it.

Nadia said...

Thanks Michelle, the picture is of our trees and my things in the house ( book, pillow, mug). I just layered it.

Looks so comfy! I love a fire, book, and hot chocolate too....need to take more time like that. Can't wait to see you guys in about 10+ days.

You'll have to let me know how Frenchman's Creek is! It's the only other du Maurier I own.

And I LOVE that picture!

Michelle said...

I have not read any du Maurier. I have not read a lot of Classics. I think that last one I read was either Tess of the D'Urbervilles or Wuthering Heights. Don't judge.

Trish @ Love, Laughter, Insanity said...

I think Nadia would second that you MUST read Rececca by du Maurier! It's fantastic!

We miss the East coast!! Your kids are adorable!! How did you end up fixing your picasa picture posts? I'm having the same problem with them not showing up:(

Nadia said...

Michelle - Tess and Wuthering Heights are two of my favorites. Wuthering Heights is probably my fav.
Trish is right, Rebecca is a MUST read. You will love it!

Katie,
I was blogging straight out of Picasa - this has worked for the last 3 years. Now for some reason it doesn't. Now I go through our blog. Just importing them from blogger... Does that make sense?

Katie and Christian said...

I'm still confused... So did you do your pictures in picasa first still and then upload them? Or is picasa just not working at all anymore? Sorry I'm kind of slow :)

Nadia said...

Dont worry, Im just a bad explainer. Yes I still use Picasa. But instead of picking out my pictures from there and then selecting "blog" I just go straight to our blog write whatever I want to write and then choose the pictures I want from the picture option at the top of my post. That way I can browse all my Picasa pictures from my blog post... You know how you can upload a video from blogger? You can upload pictures in the same way.
If what I am saying still doesnt work, you might want to try Elise's idea.

Elise:
When you use Picasa do you upload them to a web album? I've found that is the easiest, then I just copy and paste the embed link for each picture and post it into my blog.

Let me know if that helps - not being able to post pictures is so frustrating.

Katie and Christian said...

Thanks Nadia! I think I figured it out! So sad we can't do it the old way anymore! :(

Nadia said...

I know it is sad - glad its working for you now. Im excited to see what pictures your posting... :)
