. . . last night, while caught up in a sea of sequins, kraft paper and white grosgrain ribbon, fell in love all over again with the twinkling lights and softly falling snow, and later, after much laughter and fond conversation over the most delicious and casually elegant shrimp & crab dish and strawberry früli at a late dinner, was reminded of the reasons why it really is the most wonderful time . . .
{p.s.} how are things? has been forever since the last bit of site news and a flurry of wondrous activity for the past few weeks now, which means missed weekend wishes late last week as well as links, and so:

"who knows where this path will take us but let's go forth hand in hand and promise not to let go because it may lead us somewhere vast & amazing"
*****
. . . trench coats and tartan skirts, kitten heels and argyle sweaters, another autumn weekend is here again, and everywhere, leaves are falling, falling to the last fading rays of golden light, and there are deep coral sunsets and charming pubs with velvet benches to look forward to, apple orchards in the late afternoon and evenings spent lingering by the fireplace, deep in conversation well past midnight . . .
à bientôt / see you soon -- hope you're having a stunningly lovely weekend & that it's beautiful where you are,
