Sorry for posting this late but since December 20, my FeedBurner was not working.
Rather annoying but nothing what I tried, pinging or whatever, worked...
Suddenly it was just back!
And off again after posting this... Arrrgggh.

So a belated post about our Christmas Eve Dinner at Dublin Farm Come Home To The Country at Ristorante da Maria.
There was a pianist who played during the 5-course dinner.
Pieter's suit got a bit wet from getting out of the car to the restaurant...
Wearing my new cropped top in caviar from Neiman Marcus Last Call but to me it just is black color.
We had donated a Poinsettia in loving memory of Mom and my Angel Sister Mariet
First Christmas without Mom... but it feels special for having one more Angel that we know by name!
My skirt is from Escada, printed hair calf and I've cut it shorter as it was below the knee and rather frumpy looking that way.
Panty hose are DIM PARIS which I bought in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Pumps are Chanel from Last Call at Sawgrass Mills, Florida.
First dish: Ravioli stuffed with Porcini mushrooms, topped with a 4-cheese sauce, white truffle oil, Parmesan and fresh herbs.
That was really heavenly!
Lady Chef Maria is the best in our region and she makes everything fresh and from scratch!
Don't you love Pieter's Espresso cup?!
We had a very joyful Christmas Eve, just the two of us.
Hope yours was likewise pleasant, or your Christmas Brunch, Dinner whatever your way of celebrating was.
Glad your feed burner is back to normal. Sometimes Blogger just acts weird!

Looks like a lovely evening, Mariette. You and Pieter both look so nice. Good call on shortening your skirt. It's amazing how a few inches can take you from frumpy to stylish!
ReplyDeleteYou are not showing up in my blog roll, but I did get an email from Google about "a post from Mariette you might have missed." I get those occasionally for your posts. Not sure why; anyway, was glad for the reminder.
Wishing you and Pieter a wonderful 2016, with much health and happiness. xo Deborah

ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Mariette! Wishing you and Pieter are healthy, joyful New Year! Mei
