Warning, this entire post is a fantasy in my head!
I have been a reader of
Chinoiserie Chic for years...no joke. In fact, it was one of the first blogs I stumbled upon before I had a full-blown blog hopping addiction. I love all the inspirational images she posts.
This image was posted in 2009. Beth is onto the next new thing long before the rest of us realize it's cool. You can follow her on Pinterest,
here. Not long ago, I had the privilege of guest blogging a
DIY Pagoda Cornice on CC.
Last year on April 1, Beth said "goodbye" to all of us. You can
read about it here. This April 1, Beth was apparently quite smitten with the new Restoration Hardware furniture line. You can read about that
here. Both times....I totally fell for it! In fact, it is the funniest straight-faced writing I have read in a long time.
I have come to realize that she is funny..although you are not quite sure if she is serious...my favorite kind! So, my fantasy is to have cocktails with her. Now the pressure....everything must be perfect! I will serve this Yazi ginger vodka.
Probably in the form of a Zen Martini...it is also made with Green Tea Liqueur
Is that Chinoiserie enough? I'll serve the drinks in these glasses
No, that's not fancy enough...how about these
I guess it needs to be an actual martini glass, this should do
Oh, the pressure. For appetizers, I'll have oysters on the half shell
...and caviar
I know this does not look like a lot of food, but it was on the menu for
her party. I'll arrange the hors d'oeuvres on this
Overkill on the Greek Key?...maybe so. How about this one?
I am hoping that after one, maybe two drinks, she will tell me what she was really thinking when
she wrote this response. Sounds like a fun evening, right? Her dog, Izzy, is welcome to come, too.
I'm sure her dog would get along famously with Buster
Who do you want to have cocktails with?
