Dazed and confused
Still dazed....knocked down...but still giggling.
I came back from this birthday party last night and instead of cuddling with Monchéri, I went straight to my blog only to find the comments box a bit thicker and thicker. Blogger, are you being my Santa Claus this year ? Thank you again for this Blogs of note gift. Another sweet blogging surprise was in store for me last night. I found out that the exquisite and very "recherché" Diana Muse enlisted me in her "I love your blogs" list which thrilled me with joy and may I say it...pride ! If you don't know her yet, then treat yourself to an exciting aesthetic journey by clicking here.
Now that I've got my prezzie can I just channel my new readers to a few blogs which to my mind also deserve to be Blogs of note ?
Some of you already know the enthralling world of Willow from Willow Manor and the sassiness of miss Tangobaby, both having been recently selected by Blogger.
I've mentioned earlier the exquisite Diana Muse and its French pendant Le Divan Fumoir Bohémien is equally formidable.
I actually read a lot of blogs and at times I find out, I'm more interested by the guts of the person writing than the actual content of the blog.
I have loads of fondness for this quintet of ladies : Christina from Soul Aperture, who is a chef and excels at photography, Relyn from Come sit by my fire, who's the kind of teacher all parents want for their kids, Gillian from Indigo Blue, who's a cheerful gorgeous lady running a spa in Canada, Audrey who tells "petites histoires" in L'Air du temps and sweet Vanessa who writes about her peregrination in Europe.
The mischievous and "désopilante" miss P. always cracks me up.
The colorful Corine, a French lady living in LA in turn makes me laugh and moves me.
I admire the work of Carla from Carla loves photography

My friend Cuban in London always makes me discover new music or writers. His bilingual posts are also very spot on.
I would love to actually meet Edi from Edi's files. (it always intrigued me, she's quoting Thomas Payne in her right column)
I would love to have tea with Kendalee, Claire and Anairam and talk about South Africa, Claire's recent trip to Madagascar and millions of other things

I was delighted to discover recently a trio of graceful francophile ladies : Vicky from French Essence, Catherine from A Thousand Clapping Hands and Tutta from Music for a while shall all your cares beguile
And right now, I'd love to go and pay a physical visit to jewel designer Deb from Bonbon Oiseau on her holiday market stand in New York !
Have a fabulous day and happy blogging-hopping !

(and no...it's not what I wore last night. I was all wrapped up in layers of mohair. Not very glam...not very sexy either..)

You started my day off with a smile! Thank you! (And I love being called sassy.)
I am thrilled to be included on your list of blogger friends (and I felt the same way when Diana Muse first wrote to me!) and when you say "I'm more interested by the guts of the person writing than the actual content of the blog," I agree with you entirely.
Reading a blog is like developing a relationship with someone. The more you read, the more you know about the person behind the words, which in turn makes the words more interesting.
I know someday that you and I will meet, perhaps in some ancient castle in Spain, and I will thank my lucky stars that Blogger brought us together.
I'm glad you're giggling. You deserve every ounce of lovely recognition!
Thank you so much for mentioning my blog, Lala, I have moved this week to your neighborhood of blogger.
Love ya.
You do such a beautiful job with your blog...I feel uplifted every time I visit you here. Congratulations, and thank you so much for the kind mention.

thanks so much as well for your 'petitie histoire.' so sorry you had to suffer that time, but when we live to tell the story it often helps others... as you have me;)
have a merry weekend!
I am exhausted beyond measure and was happy enough to come visit you and here I find this. You make my day you sweet lady with your kind words.
Never have I "met" anyone with such zest for life as you have. You are MY inspiration. I have you up on a pedestal with a select few others (they know who they are) and it makes me so elated to know you care.
Much love this Christmas pretty lady if I don't get back here again to wish you one. I am in sheer chaos here.
I needed me a little Spain though, so hence the reason for my visit here tonight.

Giggle on!!! ♥

You and Tangobaby have already said it better than I could. It's the person behind the words and images that makes a blog feel like a comfy chair and a cup of tea with a friend. I love your blog for your style, your keen eye, your many adventures, and your loving heart. I love your blog for you, dear friend. Thank you so much for feeling fond of me. The feeling is mutual. Be well. Congratulations!! Merry Christmas!
Much love from Zurich,
