    Oh, je suis si ravie que tu sois venue chez moi. OUI, ma table était bien "vêtue" de gris et blanc. Je regrette de ne pas avoir pris des photos!

    Je suis en train ma chère de prendre des photos pour mon prochaine billet, de toute ma maison MAIS mes photos ne sont pas aussi jolies. Vraiment!

    Je t'embrasse et je te souhaite de bons rêves en gris...Anita

    Dearest Doré,
    How sweet of you to come visit me & remember so much ~ yes, little granddaughter Katie is doing very well. She is our miracle baby, starting out at 3.5 lbs. and growing up so beautiful and bright!
    Although I could not leave comments at your blog while I was away from blogging, I continued to follow your posts. You have always been a great inspiration to me, as you so well understand the soul of a home and what a difference your handmade creations make to giving it it's own unique, beautiful character.
    So happy to reconnect with you again, Doré!
    Hugs,
    Lin
