Jardin d'Eau
The Water Garden.
For my largest picture post, ever.

(*if you are sick of pictures of flowers, pictures of me or of me with flowers, I advise you to avoid this post*)
On My Walk Home
Sometimes, I just can't believe where I live.
And that I've worked so hard to make it as lovely as it right now feels.
But I can believe it, because I don't think I should be anywhere else.

The Artist's Garden at Giverny
Okay, so anyone who knows me can tell you I love flowers (like seriously - it can be a near debilitating distraction when I am walking around). I also happen to love Monet.

A Picnic of Epic Proportions
We are girls that like to eat.
And after the train and bike travel, we were hungry!
{and thirsty. Rose champagne - yes please!}
Luckily, we had packed a picnic, an enormous picnic.
For my part, I made my own version this Tune Nicoise Sandwich and I also made a barbecue chicken (quite I hit, I would do a recipe post but I can't stand the way my point-and-shoot does food shots!) for sandwiches.
Such a nice time with the best girls.
Alyssa quite cute and composed.
Sophie brought this beautiful brioche for desert .
((Satiated, very happy and ready to enter the world of Monet))

The tasting consisted of four glasses -
