This summer has turned out to be a very busy one. I am grateful to all who continue reading my blog and commenting. These photos are from the previous weekend, when we went to visit our friends. Their house is such that you would like to return to again and again.
Here are a few photos:
For those who eat meat, there was meat. I really liked this combination of colours.
The colours in the salad was very summery.
In this house, you feel like looking at and taking photos of every little thing that you find. Can you believe this boy's suitcases are salt and pepper shakers?
This family is Russian-American - and what Russian-American party can be without tea?
We has a wonderful time. Even the neighbours weren't too upset that we were singing till midnight.
Here is some art from my studio. I'm going to post more soon - keep checking; there will be some rather interesting things. Intrigued?
It would be a nice visit! I loved the foods and the things.

It looks like someone scored high with the drinks and the seafood; and the Russian objects captured the photographer's eye. Greetings from afat, Olga.

This looks like such a fun visit. Mussels on the grill--yum!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos from your outdoor food fest.
ReplyDeleteGrilled mussels look soooo good.
Yum.
What a feast, Olga, and what a fun house! You have an eye for detail, and your friends love details... a match made in Heaven, no doubt. I looked at your photos twice, because there was so much to see. It was fun, actually. :-) I have the exact same plate with the Eiffel Tower, and I loved how you - or someone else - put a macaron on it! Nice touch :') Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
ReplyDeleteI want to come next time.... her home reminds me of the line in the movie Out of Africa when Meryl Streeps, explains, "I like my things"
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun party! You must have been busy taking photos before eating, Olga. Everything looks so nice.

Как же это хорошо - иметь таких замечательных друзей! Фото рассматриваю и рассматриваю, на них столько как прелестных, так и вкусных деталей. Чувствуется, что это была задушевная встреча. Поэтому и хочется возвращаться в такой дом!
ReplyDeleteОля, some art from your studio очень заинтриговали. :)
А петухи то на чайнике норманские! Прелестное все, чашки какие! Это не билибинские ли ЛФЗ?
ReplyDeleteДавай art в массы!
Gosh what a visual feast as well as a tasty one. Looks like you had a lovely time.

Everything looked delicious dear Olga and I love the photos you have included, some people and their homes just make you feel warm and welcome and it is always lovely to return.

I am craving for some mussels!! :)
ReplyDeleteWould you please post the address of your friend's home? So we can invite ourselves the next time the party will take place and we are accitentally in the vicinity... :-)
ReplyDeleteYour photos are full of atmosphere!
Have a great and pleasant weekend,
Uwe.
Oh please may I have a kettle just like that one. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful weekend it seems, and what a treat too!
ReplyDeleteI'd certainly like to visit your friends - their home looks hospitable, friendly, warm and altogether delightful - and the food wonderful. I fell in love with the quaint little bathing beauty knives. I imagine they are vintage, from the fifties. I love things like that!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had such a splendid visit.
What a feast for the eyes! The meal must have been outstanding. I would have liked to taste the dessert and above all the chocolate. Was it Belgian chocolate? I saw the Paris napkins and plates – a truly cosmopolitan table.
ReplyDeleteThe feast of food, nick-knacks, outdoors beauty, all of it combined in your photos to share a wonderful tale of good fun with friends. I can see why you'd want to visit again and again.
ReplyDeleteAnd love that picture from your studio :-)
I see someone is asking about BELGIAN chocolate !!
ReplyDeletegreat pictures of a great get together
have a wonderful sunday
Every little thing tells their warm and wonderful personalities. Surely I want to see them! Here, there is everything which I want to have.
