Scouting the City for Delicious Treats...

Must be sure to look ooh la la fashionable ("Audrey in Paris" painting is available) before strolling OUTDOORS...

Looking for the right staff... I think Jane T will like this one... sorry Olivier... but she likes to look at handsome French men... Popping around town for the right dessert...
the right food with wine pairings...
not sure what I want to serve...
it all looks good... and the scenery is DIVINE... Must have the perfect food for the perfect tables for tomorrow's Tablescape Thursday party! This has been a delightful day... NOW off you go to visit other OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY participants via Susan @ A Southern Daydreamer!

See you tomorrow... ENJOY!

That first painting is definitely me (although she is a brunette, I took a quiz recently and as far as movie stars go, my personality is Audrey Hepburn. She sounded a little spineless to say the least). I am always touching up the eyeliner!

Great looking food...I am fully prepared to eat my way through Europe.

Hello Fifi!!! Thanks for coming to visit! I hope you voted. Yes, isn't Balzac cute? You may use the photo, I just got it off the internet buy putting in "wire haired fox terrier"; so many cute pics come up 'cause that is a populur breed. However, I would appreciate it if you did not use the name Balzac....that is a name that I created for this character that I am developing into what I hope will be a published work. Thank you! Anita

J'adore these pictures. But your illustration...I die! It is magnificent. I would frame it and sit it on my desk where I could gaze at it all day. Though I'm sure I'd end up getting absolutely no work done! :)
