Then I bought (yes bought, not made) an angel food cake for the strawberries and ice cream. <br /><br />It was just one of those days. Mom understood. We sat on her sun porch and talked and laughed while I knit this summer vest I'm trying to get done before, um, the end of summer.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07073968486721141173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-42773254485828659242011-05-10T08:36:15.949-04:002011-05-10T08:36:15.949-04:00I'm so inspired by French packaging.

My mom had a small tulle bag of these lovelies as a wedding favor she kept in the buffet. I remember sneaking in there for a nibble from time to time. They still have that magic and that memory for me from when I was a child. Nice to see them in so many colors. I only see them in pastels.Mimihttp://www.firstcomeflowers.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-300733729348291492011-05-08T21:03:12.361-04:002011-05-08T21:03:12.361-04:00Yep!
