Some shots of the outdoor produce market and fishing boats, taken last weekend at Port en Bessin, for Mosaic Monday @ the little red house & Outdoor Wednesday @ A Southern Daydreamer, two of my favourite blog parties, graciously hosted by Mary & Susan.
I hope you don't think that I'm starting the week short changing you by using one set of pix for two meme's but, oh! I am so busy at the moment.
You may have noticed that I'm also over at the Quimper Club International blog this month showing Carolyn the ropes.
As a first time blogger Carol has been sharing with us how she first discovered Q and her recent trip to Costa Rica, soon we'll learn about her talent as a restorer of ceramics. Her work is truly amazing.
Also over at QCI this month our First Year Anniversary, and we're giving away a marvellous Henriot Bijoux necklace to one lucky visitor. Click here to find out how you can be our winner. The piece of Emmenthaler cheese in the above mosaic was huge, I wanted to make sure you saw how enormous it was!
If you've enjoyed the pix today please leave me a comment, you can leave one if you didn't like them too, if you must!! Then head over to see Mary & Susan and tell them I said "hi".

Maggie, the produce looks spectacular! How neat. And the cheese. :-) I had not realized that Carol is the person who restores faience as well. Look forward to reading more.

Maggie,
ReplyDeleteI love the look of your blog. Your mosaics are wonderful. I am so far behind in my blogging.....But we are having a lot of fun. I will get back on track soon. I have too many interests.
One of my favorite things to do when traveling is go to the markets.

Great photographs of the cheeses!! Also the market and the fishing boats. Those leeks look very tempting as I love leek and potato soup!!
ReplyDeleteI don't think we will be visiting France after all this year as we are going to Italy now!!. Will we be able to meet up for afternoon tea somewhere when you come over in June or are you not coming this way?
Have a great week, Jackie
Hi Maggie. Great mosaics you have again for us. That big piece of cheese with the holes looks like Emmenthaler isn't it. It looks delicious, we eat Gouda every day , so good. :)))
ReplyDeleteI think that Riet is right, the big cheese is Emmenthaler!

ReplyDeleteI'm lovin' your beautiful mosaics sweet Maggie. The produce look like somewhere this chick could do some serious shoppin. Now, how did ya'll know I had a weakness for cheese. LOVE IT, next to chocolate it is just the best.
