About Me

silly, dreamy, fancy at times, outnumbered by the boys (my husband philippe and my sons lucien and felix)lover of: art , a walk in the woods, naps, France, lavender and rosemary, yummy food, a lazy day on my porch, my son waking me up with kisses, my husband telling me I am beautiful (when I don't feel like I am), my grandmother, a spontaneous day of adventure, a picnic in the spring, swimming in a Georgia lake, thunderstorms, spring blossoms , a good book in front of the fire in the winter, a new pair of boots, passionate thinkers, people who react, holidays, looking forward to my next trip, seeing my family, dark chocolate, a glass or three of champagne, a leisurely drive in the French countryside, the feeling I have when I go home and hug my family, sewing something new, painting with red, drawing, design, open minded people, a good documentary, a movie that makes me think, music that makes me move, pirates, standing up for the underdog. ..
