The opening has captivated me, so I have high hopes for this one. We shall see.
Hallelujah! I‘m finally done with this book! 🥳
Since it took me months to read, it obviously was hard to finish. There were a few pearls 🦪 throughout the book that kept me going. One was mentioning the restaurant La Train Bleu @ Gare du Lyon 🚆 - in 2022 we celebrated my son‘s birthday there! lol 😝 but apparently he was the photographer hiding behind the camera! 📕 Pg 335 📕 #EuropaCollective #EuropaAdditions

#DashingThruDecember Day 11: I found my favorite #HolidayCocktail and our #EuropaCollective pick for January here in the Bay Area. Let the winter break begin! Now if only my blasted colds will go away right about now.
Just posting a quick hi to Litsy members. 🙋♀️ I joined here after looking for a laid-back and fun reading platform. Knowing most reading challenges begin with the New Year, December seemed like a good month to start.
About me: I volunteer at an animal shelter and only work part-time. My reading preferences vary depending on my interests or mood but I often seek out nonfiction, classics, fantasy or HF books. I also enjoy music and hiking.

Every once in a while, a little diamond 💎 shimmers in the book. This is what is helping me finally finish the book.
Edward Haviland , son of Haviland Porcelain was mentioned.
Each year our Mom gave my two sisters and myself a Haviland ornament. We have a beautiful collection.
my husband did not get them out this year (poo poo) but here‘s a sample of them from online.

Today is the anniversary of artist Francis Picabia‘s death. Like his critics, I enjoyed his Impressionist work the best.
I do think Gabriële was his and others‘ muse.
I just still wish she had pursued her music ?
