Monday wishes and a Thank you!



Oh how I wish I was playing hookie today and taking this little guy on a picnic with the hubby!  Perfection I think.

The weekend has ended and we are knee deep in design goodness here- wishing you a wonderful start to the week!

Also a big thank you to everyone who takes the time to follow here and elsewhere we just hit 10,000 + on pinterest!

greige love... in a Citroen




Would this not be amazing to drive through the countryside with the top open and a fabulous picnic in the trunk?  I can just imagine it!  


How is the week going so far~ it has been quite busy here but I am excited for a fun girls weekend, breakfast with friends and some time to relax and maybe do a little shopping for things I really don't need.  Maybe even finish the book I am reading.

Oh and there were a few questions from yesterdays lifestyle board- just drop me an email and I will point you where you need to be...

outdoors..


I hope you are having an amazing Sunday!  It is finally cooling off here again and it might start feeling like fall soon!  This looks like the perfect way to spend a Sunday with nature and beautiful food!

Late summer picnic






So we made it to the picnic last weekend.  It was beautiful out in the field, a little prickly when you were sitting down but still beautiful.  I always want to do things like this but never manage to get out there so it was really fun.  We had home made quiche, fruit, bread and cheese.  
I fell in love with the wild flowers, the bushes were taller than me, which I thought was super cool.  

I also want to give a big shout out to Andrea at The French Basketeer to say THANK YOU for the lovely bag!  It held our picnic blankets, our quiche and other goodies perfectly.  (I also used it at the store before we left to buy all of the goodies).

A Picnic and Sunset at La Tour Eiffel...












Every time I have been in France I make sure to stop by the Eiffel Tower.  I love it.. I know it is totally touristy and crazy but I love it!  It is one of my favorite things to do by far in the city.  I love to watch the sun set and see the lights come on, I guess it is the romantic girl in me but it is the best!

We brought a little picnic with us to eat before we went up to the top to watch the sun go down.  Yummy!!

We did not just have dessert but I do try and eat at least 2 types of desert each day I am there.  They are always so pretty and so good.

The view was fantastic and this time I took some extra time to take pictures of the lights below.
The little cafe on the 1st floor was redone with Tolix chairs- love it!

If you are planning on going to Paris La Tour Eiffel is always a good idea!
But be prepared it is always busy because everyone thinks it is a good idea!

It is warm in California today and I am so in the mood for a good 
picnic.

Do you picnic?

Seine watching the Eiffel Tower light up...

What's yours?
