Changes

I’ve been so surprised and touched by all the emails I’ve received
requesting more installments of
my uh hmmm, love story!

Okay I admit this image is a bit (alot) over the top!
What can I say, I am a hopeless romantic

FotoFlexer M&M.
We are extremely private,
as you can see from the strategically blacked-out  photo above!!
 
All the special details are…well, a little too special to blab about.
Does that make any sense?

So rather than bore everyone with a play by play account of our
sweet fairytale
(well it is to me anyway),
I’ll share a “snippet” every so often.

Not necessarily about us,
but things to do and see in the City of Love...uh, City of Lights
for those who are in love
or will be in love one day!

Or if you just love French style

Obviously that is what I already do here on this blog,
but I hope to make one small change.
I’d like to begin posting video snippets so you can see la joie de vie for yourself

 Not sure if it will work and maybe it won’t.
I’m not exactly a film maker.

What do you think?
Do you like the idea of “video snippets”?


Don't forget about the giveaway next week!

Le Romance des Fleurs






  Flowers are always romantic.  The gorgeous blooms above are the result of my honey's green thumb.   He carefully transported them by train from a garden in the south of France to celebrate my first birthday in Paris - (sigh!) - did I mention what a romantic he is? 




More fabulous blossoms from my gardener man, and they made a perfect addition to my blog header.  This brilliant pink rose is breathtaking.



 Beautiful  fragrant bouquets like these can be found all over Paris.  This is a good thing since my thumb is not so green.  
 Decorating la maison with fresh flowers is a luxury that never fails to inspire and make me smile.  




I dried the petals from those first lovely roses my honey gave me.  I keep them in my mother's  crystal rose bowl.  The colors are still vivid and each time I look at them I think to myself,  "How lucky can a girl get?"
