Joyeuses Paques!

It's Friday evening, Easter weekend, and I have to admit right off that I have eaten a chocolate bunny or two....so I may be a little bit giddy.... I will try to keep calm and write this short post.

Because of Easter Sunday-- I am headed off to a brocante tomorrow, Saturday (yes, yet again!) (No, I am not changing the name of my shop or this blog to 'Saturday Brocantes' .... no matter what.)  This week's brocante is in Blonville-sur-Mer ... which I have visited a few times because I was taking private French lessons there for a short time with a lovely lady named Adeline  ...  who spoke perfect English because she had lived for a few years in Connecticut but now I don't see her anymore because she is working full-time in Caen teaching bio-physics or something like that  ...   Désolé--I'm off topic aren't I?

So the brocante is there and it's a 'Vide Grenier' which means lots more folks selling things (150 expos) who don't really know what they have and prices are cheap  reasonable  ...  and the proverbial budget goes much farther.  Which is what I need because I lost my skin this week on shipping some large and heavy items ...  a 'cher' mistake that I will not make again  ......  am I off topic again?

Chocolate bunnies...powerful things.

So I leave you with my plans to trek to Blonville in the morning...about 30 minutes from home and some sweet pics of the lavender sachets I am making from antique linens.  I have one last batch of home-grown 'grosse bleue' lavender that I grew and yes...little-Martha-Stewart-me is sewing them..with all due love....



Enjoy!  Happy Easter one and all!

See you after the weekend!
