Hello blog friends. Guess what? Well, I had the wonderful opportunity to meet up with another awesome blogger!
I met up with my newest blog friend, Janet who blogs at Rosemary & Thyme! Janet has the most beautiful blog where she shares about entertaining, tablescapes, and recipes.
We both arranged to meet this past Saturday in New York City, at the French restaurant called Maison Kayser. Here we are together enjoying our lunches. Janet is on the left and I'm seated on the right. We both had salads and quiche, and then lattes.
We both enjoyed spending time getting to know each other and sharing about our blogging experiences.
We had so much fun together that we decided to do a little bit of window shopping. We visited Fishs Eddy and then ABC Carpet and Home.
I took a few photos while we were walking around ABC Carpet and Home. I really enjoyed looking at their holiday and Christmas displays. Their theme was pastels and pink colors. I love the colors of the plates and how elegant and it looks with the black accent plate.
The little house ornaments and display were so beautiful but very expensive. Look at the pretty white tree and ornaments. I love the old fashioned ornaments.
I love the pink deer and trees and the pink tea pot. There was just so much to look at!
I just love the houses and bottle brush trees and they still seem to be all the rage right now. Maybe I have given you some ideas for decorating your house or trees this holiday season.
We then went on to the bedding department and had fun looking around there too.
Janet was also so kind and made me mini pumpkin muffins and I just love the packaging it came in. Janet is a talented baker and the muffins tasted so good! I love the pretty pearl napkin rings she made me too.
This was my fourth blog friend I was able to meet this year and I am so happy and thankful for the opportunity!
Meeting blog friends is such a special and wonderful experience. I hope that someday you will be able to experience that too.
Don't forget to visit Janet from Rosemary and Thyme.

Thanks everyone and Enjoy!

So good to be able to meet a blog friend! There are no buddy bloggers here I could meet in person. You're lucky!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to be able to meet Janet in person. It sounds and looks like you had an amazing time. The Christmas goodies look wonderful. X
ReplyDeleteHow fun! I will go and visit her blog as well Julie. I guess I am a traditionalist. I must have red and green at Christmas!! I am noticing a lot of people going more neutral in their holiday decorating. At my house it is like Buddy the Elf lives here..lots of Sparkle going on!!
ReplyDeleteYou are both so lucky to have met each other, and also to have met four in total this year. Our decorations start to go up this weekend so I am on the lookout for some extra things to join my collection! Have a wonderful week my lovely xx
ReplyDeleteAnother fun meet up! You're on a roll!! The lunch sounded delish and the window shopping, divine. I love those pink deer. SOOO cute! Yummy on the muffins too.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that you were able to meet another blogging friend. I'm sure she enjoyed your company and it looks like you had a lovely time. Enjoy your box of goodies.

Hi Julie, looks like such a fun time meeting up with Janet. Browsing the shops had to be extra fun. Yesterday I also met up with a blogger that lives locally and I just found her in blogland. We also went to a little French restaurant here and talked forever over a yummy lunch. Isn't it fun to meet up with blog friends? I'm meet two more in 2 weeks and looking forward to yet another great day. So glad you enjoyed your time with Janet and thanks for the link to meet her.

How wonderful for both of you to meet up, Julie! You're having a good year of meeting blogging friends. The decorations you shared are soooo pretty and vintage looking. My mom used to have those sparkly houses and I don't know what happened to them! I loved all the pink...plates, deer, teapot, ornaments, etc. Fun!!
