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."

ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing,
Teresa (I'm stressing over a tablescape with grown-up hints - it means it's not themed but with mere suggestions (oh why do kids have to grow up? now, I'm already sounding like PP ahahahaha) - of Peter Pan. Really Stressed and to go through this oh so natural and beautiful setting helped sooth the anxiety)
Jacqueline, I look forward to what you share about your craft nigh with your girlfriends. Joanne's table is absolutely lovely with all the blue details. Love the idea of a covered outdoor area. I'm sure she has many dinners and parties in this space. Her banner of hankies and lights is a darling touch. I need to remember that idea. Pinning it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing and thank Joanne for sharing. I need to pop over to Red Couch and see what she is up to.
What a fun tablescape. I love thrifted things. They always tell a story. The food looks delicious too. I can't wait for your churro recipe.
ReplyDeleteLovely tablescape with blue and sunflowers. I love the outdoor area. What a wonderful entertaining area. Joanne went all out and it shows. Looks like the menu is yummy, along with your decadent dessert. What a fun way to get together and craft. The fairies are adorable.
ReplyDeleteWOW!! Do you have room for one more, the table and setting is wonderful. I am helping my partner in dish crime with a Shabby Chic party, may use some of her settings. Have fun next month, anxious to see what the theme is.
