. . . another perfect summer weekend and it’s been dinners in charming and candle-lit french restaurants, filet de saint pierre de fond au basilic avec roti en ecailles de courgettes et tomate, a glass of red wine and always, always crème brulée to finish . . . and before long, the beginning of a new week and guests from out of town, a little redecorating {from boulder grey to shades of white}, and here, a give-away so stunningly and impossibly exciting, can hardly, hardly wait . . .
hope it’s beautiful where you are,
