French Cafe♥

Hello everyone,
We are having another beautiful day today. The sun is out. The temperature is in the 60's and no wind...Love it.
I'm dreaming again about how wonderful it would be to travel to Paris and sit at a little table watching the people walk by as I drink a cup of coffee and dip a croissant into a dish of chocolate.
Yum~Yum

I don't have a trip planned anytime soon, but I thought I would pretend. Yes, I'm pretending again. I made some pudding and baked some croissants and now I want you to enjoy a cup of coffee and dip your croissant into the chocolate. Please help yourself.

I found these darling dessert plates at TJ Maxx last summer and I knew I would be setting this table.

The sun shines into my dining room and I can sit and have a cup of coffee in the morning and tea in the afternoon.

I have camellia bushes in the front yard. This pink double "Debutante" is loaded with blooms and in my 'Friendly Village' post HERE I had a bouquet of "Yule Tide" camellias.

French press coffee anyone?

Some candle light too.

This restaurant would be nice. Don't you think? If weather permitting we would sit outside...

And I love the look of this cafe. So french!!!

Well, my dream has come to an end. I do have some inspiration and I'm grateful I can enjoy my French Cafe right here at home.

Hope you have a great weekend.
Joyously,
Betty

A Little French Going On!

Hi everyone,

Oh my goodness. I've missed playing with my camera and posting this week. I finished doing our taxes and cleaning the filing cabinets. 2012 is put to bed. While sitting at the computer doing the year end recap it felt just like WORK! Ouch! (An expression of one's own physical pain) Yep! That's me. I love retirement and sitting at the computer blogging is playing and it's such a joy. I missed editing photos and planning my posts. I took these photos for this post this evening. I usually don't take photos at night, but I was so excited to get back to posting and catch the weekend parties, I felt like I had been gone for a year. What's wrong with me? I posted last Friday. Okay, I think I'm done venting now. It's over and I'm happy again.

This post is for my pleasure.

•I needed to bake cookies to go with our evening ice cream treat. I love this Butter Cookie recipe.

•I wanted to show off my new French Rooster container

•I received a bouquet of flowers from a friend and I wanted to show them off.

•I wanted to pretend that the beautiful tin box from Mont Saint-Michel, France still had some delicious butter cookies in it. I think I'll put these cookies in it tomorrow.

•And I wanted to dream about the day I might visit Mont Saint-Michel.
