Chocolat - French for Chocolate. I adored chocolate from a young age when I had to sneak in the cupboard to find where my mother had hidden the Nestle's Chocolate Chips. Having read about the famous chocolat shoppes in Paris, when I finally got there I was determined to try a chocolate from every Paris shoppe. I invite you to share my adventures in creating, in travel, and in life.

Words to Eat By
"Though never a very good dieter, she'd found a rule of thumb that kept her from blimping out as her metabolism aged - eat what you want, but not all of it. So if she wanted cheesecake, she made cheesecake, had a slice, and took the rest to a friend or someone in her church who needed a pick-me-up."

ReplyDeleteOh how I'd love to have the warm sand between my toes right about now! Great setting Jacqueline, lovin' the beautiful goblets! Your setting does look like paradise:@)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful setting on the beach! Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely gorgeous Jacqueline!! What a dreamy setting on the beach and beautiful dishes! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Jacqueline!
ReplyDeleteYour tablescape is very romantic and lovely. What a gorgeous sunset.
Very beautiful...the sunset does look so inviting...Blessings, Catherine
ReplyDeleteWow. Some people get to live where it takes others of us hundreds of dollars to visit! This is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks beautiful, especially in the glow of the sunset. For that reason, I love to have family photos taken during sunset:) That was ambitious of you to take your tablescape down to the beach, but well worth it.
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing! I just love this ~ and love seeing the beach and water...I so wish I were there!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy every moment ~
The shell dishes are beautiful.

Just lovely tablescape and setting. I miss the ocean so much. Thanks for sharing these fabulous photos!!
ReplyDeleteOh, this tablescape on the beach is so lovely with the sun setting and casting those hues on the dishes. We had a beach dinner a couple of years ago while visiting on Kiawah Island in S.C. I have pictures of the sunset at that time and the vision has remained in my mind. Your dishes and goblets are so perfect.....PERFECT!!
ReplyDeleteOh, you are making me a bit green. How wonderful to be at the beach with that gorgeous sunset. Love the details. I think I have the same shell dishes. Just a few pieces that I picked up last summer.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Cabo! ~ Sarah
What a beautiful setting on a gorgeous beach. My hubby doesn't bring me flowers OR take me to great places like this! Love the beach theme.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! Just like everything you create!
ReplyDeleteMy husband's family had a home right on the water at Sunset Beach when he was growing up. He talks about walking out the door and diving in the waves everyday. Sand and surf really are our favorite memories and your scape is just so pretty with the setting sun. Love the silver, starfish, and rose accessories with all of your shell dishes...great job!
ReplyDeleteHi Jacqueline!
ReplyDeleteYour beach scene takes my breath away! We just got back from 6 wks in FL & I can tell you, we didn't experience anything so lovely as yours.
I was very frustrated that I couldn't access anyone blogs...not even my own...while down there. Spotty, difficult wi-fi. Ugh!
I see that I have LOTS of catching up to do on your blog. I'll be back after my Chicago company leaves at the end of the week.
I've missed visiting you!!
Hugs,
Rett
Green with envy here just thinking of being able to be at the beach and be warm. wonderful tablescape!
ReplyDeleteStunning! Lovely! Serene! I would love to be there right now. You leave me wishing for the roar of the sea. You exquisitely pulled everything together to create a wistfully romantic look. Perfection!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful setting for a tablescape. The sun-kissed pictures are so pretty. Love the shell dishware and the white goblets. No sun, no sand.....sigh! Joni
ReplyDeletewhat beautiful pictures lucky you. Love the shell dishes
ReplyDeleteCabo *sigh*...I'm so enthralled with the waves rolling in & the setting sun & sand, I totally ignored beach side tablescape! Beautiful~ love the goblets especially!
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful! I'd love to see Cabo one day. You must have your own place there judging from the lovely dishes and accessories! Oh, how romantic...
ReplyDeleteThat was just lovely. Frame after frame of seaside beauty.
ReplyDeleteOooh, so romantic! Just gorgeous! Can't beat the backdrop!
ReplyDeleteKatherine
Beautiful, as always. I think that you need to take the first shot of the sunlight glowing through the goblet with the ocean in the background...and make it into a notecard. Thank you for sharing your magnificent design. Cherry Kay
ReplyDeleteHow spectacular! Every single image outdoes the one before.
ReplyDeleteToday is my wedding anniversary but my husband is out of town. I think that I will email this to him to let him know how he can make it up to me! ;)
Georgeous. i love the setting on the beach
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous shots! It would be so relaxing (and romantic) to share this tablescape. I love this theme
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and soooooooo romantic!!!
ReplyDeleteI die drooling with your romantic settings. Nothing can beat the sun & those pretty treasures that coherent the surroundings.
ReplyDeleteAll thumbs UP, yelled my 19 yr old daughter.
Just beautiful, Jacqueline...makes me want summer to hurry and get here!
ReplyDeleteHow perfect are those shell dishes for a beach tablescape!!!! Even the inlaid shell napkin rings, WOW! This was just beautiful and gave me a little warmth from the beach sun!
ReplyDeleteOh, what an absolutely enviable setting...all around!!! You must love living in such close proximity to the beach! Love your plates and napkin rings...and those goblets!!! Bravo!
ReplyDeleteJackie...this is so perfect! It makes me wish we were still there, basking in that beautiful warmth and enjoying all the fabulous sights, smells, food and your special brand of hospitality! Thanks again for a wonderful trip!
ReplyDeleteMy tan is going to peel.
XO,
Lila
Love those goblets!
ReplyDeleteJacqueline,
ReplyDeleteThis is not real, is it?? LOL You NEED to write a book, my friend. You're one of the most talented person on the net.
Have a great weekend!

Your tablescape makes the beach look like the most romantic place ever.
ReplyDeleteYou were featured at Tablescape Times Three today! Following!
ReplyDelete-Andrea :)
You have gone to a lot of trouble to create a delightfully unique setting on The beach at. Sunset. I hope the occasion was as romantic as it looks.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that I "wandered" backwards a little bit and caught this post. This is my idea of heaven...I love everything you've done. The dishes, the stemware, the flowers, the view...perfect.
ReplyDeleteWhen I do try to picnic on the beach, I end up with sand in everything...sweating...the wind blows everything away and the gulls are grabbing the food right out of my hand. For me, the idea always seems so much better than the reality.
What a beautiful place, and a great tablesetting on the beach. How romantic!
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Beth
