    Nice quote, and I like how she seems to be just having an interlude reading, with one arm casually on the hearth- plus the cat. :)

    Beautiful painting and a great quote to go with it. I need to write that quote in my journal.

    Perfect quote for sure! And is that a feather duster in the lady's hand? Is she pausing her housework for a moment to read her book? Me too, lady, me too!
