Merci

Feeling a gratitude as wide as the sky today. My sister’s surgery was a great success and she is recovering well. Already making jokes with the nurses. Thank you so very much to those of you who sent good wishes. I was especially touched by those that came from the folks that don’t know her or had just found this blog as so many of you did yesterday. Which leads me to…
A huge thank you to Brooke Giannetti for featuring some of my photos on her fantastic blog, Velvet & Linen. When Brooke asked if she could publish them, I imagined one, maybe two–but no! I was also delighted by her kind words. That Brooke remains such a generous and lovely person despite her overwhelming success is inspiring to say the least. For those of you who don’t know her blog, allez-hop! : Velvet & Linen.
Spring Fever is bubbling up for the Feria de Pâques, the Easter Bullfights and parties that accompany them. More on that soon for I am not quite ready to dip my hands into that yet. Today, you’ll find me just floating happily up in the big blue, saying thank you, merci.

  1. Hooray that your sister did well with the surgery! Ms. Worrier can stop worrying (for now!) 🙂

  2. Heather – so glad to hear your sister is doing well. And what fun to be featured over at Brooke's!! She has marvelous taste so I'm not surprised she appreciated your lovely photos!!

  3. Hooray! What an amazing week this has been. It may take me a bit of time to get to know those of you that are new–I have a lot of other blogs to discover. 🙂 But I am truly thrilled that you have all stopped by.

    I AM so grateful that my sister did so well. I tend to be a worrier even under the best of circumstances and nobody likes having family in the hospital. She is getting better slowly but surely.

    Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! And for those of you celebrating…"Thank you Easter Bunny…Bok! Bok!"

  6. So glad all is well with the family and don't you just love love love a perfect aesthetic woven so tightly into the dna of such a generous soul, aka Brooke?

  7. Thanks to Velvet & Linen I discovered your blog. Happy I did. It's great! I'm just planning a journey to Provence in August. You are so lucky to live in such a dream place.
    The only thing it's very soar for eyes to read white on red and fully enjoy the pictures. I'd appreciate if it would be possible at all to change a background to a neutral one.
    Thank you, looking forward to many stunning posts and pictures to come.
