Where the hell did you get that picture?? Quite funny. I do like a bit of the bubbly meself, a chilled glass of Cristal would slip down grateful about now.
love the picture, I am like that with most sofas and chairs. I have to perch in the end to keep my feet on the floor. Champagne? I feel an Ab Fab skit coming on
I remember my first campaign, at Meg's wedding. I was twenty something and wore my yellow dress. Driving home, my husband and I each agreed to be responsible for watching a lane of traffic. Back in our living room the baby sitter said "You're both drunk!" and kept the kids the rest of the day while we slept it off.
"Three be the things I shall never attain: Envy, content and sufficient champagne." from Inventory by Dorothy Parker. My very wise Aunt Anne taught me that when I was 16 years old. Aren't you lucky to get on so well with your MiL? xx
Dorothy Parker was very clever about champagne. Another of her quotes is: 'Champagne to my real friends, Real pain to my sham friends.' Love that you and Sorrel get on so well.
Wine makes me sick. Even champagne. Luckily for me, beer and vodka and rum (not all consumed at the same time!) treat me fine. I want a picture of the meal! I am very demanding, aren't I?
I like the pic. It reminds me of Table and Four Chairs by Robert Therrien. http://www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks/therrien-no-title-table-and-four-chairs-ar00166
I like the picture showing little people or huge furniture – your camera must have taken some Champagne too. I guess you mean the real Champagne? From the area of Champagne in France designated by the law of July 22, 1927? My cousin near Paris goes every year to Epernay to buy a couple of cases. I like to visit my cousins … But here in the US they call champagne any wine that is bubbly so you are not sure until your take a sip what it is your are drinking.

ReplyDeleteThey called the Princess Charlotte! hooray
ReplyDeleteWere they thinking of the potato or the strawberry??
DeleteWere you toasting the new baby or what? Not that you need an excuse to drink champagne.
ReplyDeleteCan Chris cook? Or do you just make polite noises about it?

ReplyDeleteToo big a subject.
ReplyDeleteOh my, champagne. My favourite tipple (when I can get it!) There's nothing like a champagne buzz. That's a very strange photograph.
ReplyDelete*Clink* I'll drink to that!

I'm with Sorrel on that one.
ReplyDeleteMe and champagne share a mutual dislike for one another. Luckily it's the only social lubricant to suffer this affliction.
ReplyDeleteI love champagne flowing freely at weddings - such a treat !
