“It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade.”
Charles Dickens

    Sun shing and the wind blowing cold…perfectly describes today, at least in DC! That wise Mr. Dickens.

  2. Elizabeth — Doesn’t it describe today PERFECTLY? I nearly died when I found it this morning. Oh Charles, what a talent he was : )

  3. Jane says:

    perfect for nyc too! i had this very thought on my way to work, but of course couldn’t put these words to it. xx

  4. Jane — Oh please, Dickens has nothing on your eloquence : ) Miss you! XO

  5. oo wow! so beautiful! couple of days ago we had a weather like that! Today it’s snowing and it’s super cold!

  6. Alexandra says:

    I’m glad there’s some consolation from Dickens on the crazy March weather! (We had white-out snow conditions in the morning, and then it all melted in the afternoon!)

  7. Livi says:

  10. Adriana says:

    Never mind! I found out it’s an excerpt from Great Expectations

  11. I’m glad you found out Adriana—it actually didn’t specify where I found it and I was wondering the same thing! XO
