Today I got a surprise package from Jemimah! It was full of lovely things from her jaunts around Europe. Included in the package were magazines and papers from France and Germany, a mini Eiffel tower, wine corks (which I suspect were part of this find) and a glass with the letter “P” on it. For those who don’t know I collect linens and glassware that have random monograms on them…never my own…Sometimes I come across a “G,” but I have never found a “J”… Weird huh?
Anyway, I am loving it all, especially the shelter mag she sent. I can’t understand a word of it, but the pictures do not get lost in translation at all. I just get lost in all the beautiful colors and ideas… It’s just all further proof to me that maybe I live on the wrong side of the pond!

Wait a minute, First you said we had to be Italian, now you say you have to be French, (oh and don’t forget about being a midwesterner) next you will say and rightly so, you just have to be Scottish!>Such is the lot of Americans. Just a melting pot of beautiful jewels, just like you a beautiful tiara of exotic jewels!

tracy says
love your new title bar, and of course, all your french treasures. I’m still trying to figure out what it is about those frenchies that make them so damn intriquing!!
