For some reason, all my text is appearing a bit early, even though I've got it lined up correctly in the post field. Any suggestions?

Great things to have as favourites. No idea about the text thing sorry.

Susan Helene Gottfried said...

Eh, who cares? Words, pictures... they both convey images, so you have the pictures reinforcing the words.

Wonderful, wonderful things to have as favorites. I especially liked the Batman. :D

I'm totally digging the family tree tree.

And yeah, if I post anything to the side of multiple photos in Blogger (rather than above/below), my final posts end up like that too.

It doesn't detract from the post at all, really.

Love the Mr Potato Head's Julia! I'm sort of back in the land of the living - sort of - thank you for the messages on my blog

Love the pictures, Julia. And I agree, the words not being lined up don't take away from post.

My favorite? Christmas. If I had my way, I'd leave the lights and tree up all year round!

What a great list! Christmas is my favorite time of the year as well!!

Stunning photos. Happy belated 4th to you and yours. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my Wordless Wednesday yesterday.

I should probably mention that none of the pictures are mine - I just borrow them off the net. Someday I shall have a digital camera. Someday.

Wonderful favorite things!!!! The pictures are beautiful...and never mind the text, we'll figure it out. =)

Angela/SciFiChick said...

Great list!
I'd like to be oustide right now..

Unknown said...

Ah we figured it out, Julia. :)

I love making my husband laugh too. It can be a hard thing to do sometimes. Not because he's grumpy, but because he's not a laugh out loud person.

I howl enough to make up for him though.

300 soon...

'kay- hubby isn't a lunatic. he kept telling me there was a Mr. Potato-Cucumber and Mr. Potato-Carrot, etc. and I thought he was brain-drained by Ebay - but there it is - photoproof on your blog!!

errmm - i think i owe him an apology now....

Amy Ruttan said...

I love my paycheque to LOL!

Oh btw I have that FBOW christmas special you mentioned. I found it in a bargain store for like $2, it's VHS but I love it. I also have the Christmas Special where Lizzie gets lost tobogganing and a Christmas Angel finds her.

Julia... I have to say, I agree with ALL of your things!! I don't have a dog, so I'm off on that one - but all the rest, so agree with you!!!
Love it!!
