  42. Chère Anita,

    Quel message flamboyant créé par une dame unique...
    Je te souhaite des jours plein de splendeur...






    Qui connaît notre nom
    habite dans la maison
    derrière nos yeux ?
    Dans quel monde
    existons-nous ?

    Que sommes-nous
    excepté du désir ?
    excepté de la beauté ?
    La beauté d'un rêve ?

    Voler sur les ailes
    de lumière de neige
    vers un pays caché
    dans les profondeurs du coeur...

    Se promener dans un jardin
    où les oiseaux fleurissent comme des roses
    et les roses planent comme des oiseaux...

    Séjourner dans cet endroit magique
    où la joie chante
    et l' éternité danse...

  52. How odd...these past few days I've been thinking about some of the trips Dave and I took...drinking new wine, eating cheese, olives and bread in a small ocean side Corsican cafe or breakfast at the K&K King George in Kensington or eating at a table filled with (we hoped) former Russian KGB. Please, may I escape farm work for a while and join your party?

  54. You know I would love to participate, BUT, this year has been so crazily busy! I don't know where the time has gone, seeing it is already half way into the month of July. But I will be coming to view every one who participates, for sure! As this is a dream scape, virtual eye candy I would not want to miss!
    lots of love to you, my dear friend!

    I hope you are enjoying your weekend...but then again, having the summer off is like one loooooong weekend, huh? I hope that you are able to enjoy your time off. I just sent you an email. Oh, I really wanted to participate in this party. It looks so fun...things have been so busy with swimming and trying to get the boys out almost everyday to play...I am exhausted and just can't seem to catch up on my rest. :)

    Anyway...I hope your party is fun! As it's always been in the past.

    Love to you,

It is sure to be a delight and I cannot wait to see what bloggers share. This is perfect for summer:)

  65. Dear Anita,

    Just read your post and came over to thank you for your always heart-warming comments and then I saw that fabulous photo. It is you, isn't it? Anita, you look stunning and what an amazing dress you are wearing! It really suits you! I am so glad you posted the photo, because now I know how you look like :-). Somehow it makes a difference for me, seeing who is the sweet lady, who writes all those beautiful posts and leaves those kind comments. It may sound strange, but if it is you, you look the way you write :-)

    I am so happy to hear you enjoy taking photographs. Yes, I think you are right, part of what makes my photo's attractive, are the things I bought at flea markets and thrift stores. They create part of the 'atmosphere'. Hope you will be able to see it one day. Meanwhile you can start building your own collection :-)

    Looking forward to see your photographs! Wishing you a wonderful summer too! Good luck on your beautiful 'Europe' link party. Hopefully I will be able to join next time.

    Happy summer to you as well!

    Almost forgot to mention what a beautiful tea set. Very 'Jane Austen' :-)

  70. Hi Anita,
    It's another beautiful party getting ready and planning is so much fun when it's a French holiday in Paris. I'm sadly not attending this time, I have so much here I am working on, and I'm a mess with painting my out dated cabinets that are in an oak stain to white. It's not a choice I would do if I could start fresh, but it will do for now. This small home can only handle so much, and white would be a good blend for the counter tile, I would much rather have a raw rustic finish to them but, the heavy glossy finish is way to much to deal with all that sanding that would take place. So my days are now painting to just add that French cottage feel.
    Next time, you know how much I love your French parties.
    Anita, your silver set is so beautiful, and that bottom picture of your sofa with the crown is so romantically French.

    I will see you soon.
    Xoxo

  72. Is that little person sitting on the steps in Italy, you, my dear? I think so. I have been on my bed all day for Sat and Sun and I feel tremendously better but still not top notch. Bout 75 %. 100% would be that I am at my 'puter or hours and I am all over blog land spreading my little simple sequins where ever I go. Not expecting that til about mid September. I discovered the lump a week before Halloween. That is when I will probably feel great again. By then radiation will be done. I am behaving myself specifically during the next 7 weeks or chemo and it's symptoms. For DANG sure!

  84. Anita, so sorry I have to miss this one! I am just coming out of a huge, not a minute to myself project... nearly 3 months away from the blog! Hope to do the next one because I had so much fun last time! Nice to visit CC&C again!
