Delivery Service - Bluffton Style

A new wine boutique, 55 Vine, is opening in my corner of the world.  The wise proprietor visited  The Side Door seeking wine oriented decor.

Could I deliver? Absolutely!

Prayers for the Vamp

This past week Valerie Hart of Visual Vamp and her tango dancing love were enroute to teach a tango workshop when Alberto suffered a heart attack in the Calgary Airport.

 Having the pleasure of meeting this very lovely lady on a few occasions and of course, following this small statured wizard of creativity and taste on her blog, my heart breaks for her. She is a woman who wears her passions on her sleeve. To have this happen to her Alberto and to be so far away from her beloved New Orleans and friends must be devestating.

I hope that you will join me in sending Valerie all our prayers and support.

As she requested, please pray for the Vamp and her Alberto.

Salut!

To Market, To Market ....

Market day in the South of France ......

The feast for the eye is overwhelming.  The aromas entice you, up one row and down another.

You become a gatherer. You gather this .....

and this .....

and this .....

Until your arms beg you to cease while your senses scream for more.

I'm off to market tomorrow. A different one from this, tho no less enticing. One of this country's largest and most exciting "brocantes". Heading west to the Hill Country of Texas. A very good brocante friend is coming along for the ride and roped in her side kick for the journey.

Hope you'll hang around for the stories and the adventures. There have been more than a few this past week and like everything we seem to love, they only get better with age. A brief stop in Atlanta tomorrow to pick up the Cowboy and then we're off. Hang on.... the first stop is the Big Easy. Here we come New Orleans! 

Head 'em up and move 'em out!

Salut!
