All about Chocolat!

By now if you have been reading along here, you know that one of my daughters is living in France. Ooooh la la! She is studying in Rennes and literally killing us with the delish photos of food she is consuming on a daily basis. Her first day there she was a little sad and missed us all, so she consoled herself with her friends and duck for lunch. SIGH. But the above photo has been on my mind since I saw it at her new little blog which acts as her memoirs of the experience. Macadamia nut hot chocolate with a side of fudgy chocolate cake and whipped creme! Manifique! It was so rich apparently that they had so serve it with a little side of water. I guess life is "sweet" in France!

yeah, it's Friday. Hard to know isn't it?
This is just a little post to show my favorite purchase of 2007. At a local thrift store in town I found this little four cup beauty. As we use a coffee press, I designated it to the hot chocolate duty.
It is perfect. Four cups for $5. What a steal. Is everyone enjoying time away? What are you doing?
We had some nice company at the gallery today. Teeni and her husband popped by for a look and went home with some lovely pieces. What a good eye she has! (and really nice person to boot)
Enjoying the snow here with beautiful morning skies and a little extra napping time each day. Very splendid indeed. Enjoy your weekend and start thinking about your Lovely Hearts pieces. Here is a local article on the show last year. Posting the skinny on this year's exhibition on Monday here. Until then, have a wonder filled weekend!
