French La Vie started in 2005. I have the "Brocante Bug," which means antiquing is my cure; France can do me no wrong when it comes to treatment ° 35 years living in France with my French Husband, whom I met while dancing in San Francisco ° Two children, now in their early thirties, amour et joie ° Come join our journey either vicariously through my blog or on a French La Vie Week Retreat in Provence °
I'm making this for my reading circle meeting on Thursday to discuss: The Invention of Wings. Should be lively discussion.
Will make it in France too, I'm sure!

Oh great, I'm sitting in my office during lunch drinking bottled water with a lime wedge and you're drinking Sangria with your good looking man? Where is the justice? I'm SO jealous.

PS. Good lipstick color too. And I like the crops with a dash of color in each.

Your red lipstick is fabulous! May I ask what brand/color it is? I've been searching for a true red for ages, and keep ending up with pink reds, or burnt reds:(

Ohh la la that looks like fun! French glasses frames are so much more fashionable than the boring U.S. ones.

Love the last picture Corey!
I'd like to dive into that glass of sangria and float in it on a pool raft, we're over 90 degrees today.

You're so cute! My sister and I make WHITE sangria for the summer. Here's how: Take white grapes, blueberries, halved and hulled strawberries, and FRESH peach slices and put in freezer to freeze. Take large glass pitcher and pour in one bottle of chilled white wine (I like a sauvingnon blanc or chardonnay, not a sweet white one). Add generous pouring (did I say very generous?) pouring of peach schnapps, add either sparkling water, 7-up, gingerale to taste. Stir. Add in your frozen fruits which act as ice cubes to keep the sangria cold. Pour into clear wine glasses, making sure that each glass gets some of the frozen fruit. Garnish with fresh mint if desired. So delightful, refreshing, and delicious and nice accompaniment or in place of the traditional red sangria! Enjoy!
