Some of the Atlanta bloggers got together for a brunch yesterday and you can read more about the gathering by stopping in at Sue's place at Rue Mouffetard.
(Sue, I hope you don't mind that I borrowed the group picture).
We had such a good time visiting and enjoying some incredible food! After the brunch a few of us headed over to Scott's Antique Market to do some shopping and looking. Recently when shopping in the south building I met a lovely new friend, and I was so happy to see that she was there this month too. Her name is Ava and she is a 5th grader. Her mother is french and her father is American so she spends her school year in the U.S. and summers in France. Her father owns a shop in Atlanta, Provenance Antiques, and has a booth at Scott's specializing in french provencial pieces.
Ava, on the other hand is a young jewelry making artist. Here are a few pairs of earrings that I purchased - all for $3 each!
I love the little note that she tucked inside my envelope. May I convey the same message to you, dear readers! I hope you will stop back by over the next few days as I share some great adventures from my recent work travels.
Oh we had such a fabulous time at your gorgeous home. Thank you again for being the best hostess and your bubby was also!
