{Our Rose Suite with Angels + a REQUEST}


Exactly on our anniversary day, I read Rose Marie's My Romantic Treasures blog and was in for a surprise!
Although she lives in Puerto Rico, she got my 'TWIN' Angels on the wall...
The above angel plaque is from Rose M Rodriguez 's My Romantic Treasures White Decorations blog post, just click on it.
This is the bedroom in our Rose Suite, the special living quarters for our guests.
Rose linen is from the Yves Delorme Outlet Yves Delorme 
Angel lamp with rose shade above.

These angels hang on the side wall, found them at TJ Maxx and they're lovely.
 Don't turn the lights off yet... at the bottom is my request!
The Rose Suite bedroom even has porcelain light switches with roses...
But now back to Rose M Rodriguez 
For almost a year I do know Rose Marie and she had a lovely blog with lots of followers. But her blog got hacked and she lost it ALL. Very sad. She's started a new one, but it never got off to the level where she used to be.
Please, scroll down onto her other blog: El arte de Rosiña and to the right you find her Follow button. Let's surprise her and lift her up as a special Christmas Gift. Rose Marie has been very sick, almost at the time that I was very sick... She suffers from Fibromyalgia.
She also has a sister-in-law in New York, named Zulma, who suffers from cancer... All she can do is PRAY because it is too far for her to visit. There are lots of this kind of stories in the world, only if you look around and listen with your heart. Knowing that it means so much to her, for getting her followers back, I dare to ask for your support.
So far, I have been fortunate in my life for having learned how to listen - from the DEAF I learned that... No kidding! They use all their senses for observing another human being. So we owe it to the rest of us for at least using our ears, eyes and above all; our HEART.
Thanks a lot for helping out with this! If we can just make ONE person happy; that is more than words can ever describe.  
In all languages a heartfelt:
THANK YOU; GRACIAS; GRAZIE; DANKE; DANK JE WEL; MERCI BEAUCOUP; BANYAK TERIMA KASIH
♥♥

{Heart Couture at Neiman Marcus Cafe}

Last week Tuesday we were pleasantly surprised to find a different menu at Neiman Marcus Cafe in Atlanta.
Presenting Heart Couture 
Meanwhile changed into: Go Figure...
♥♥

Funny that her book is from 1967 and that only NOW they start seriously implementing her advice! She was the NM Director of Restaurants, 1955-1969.

Needless to say that Pieter and I were very pleased with this option on their menu. In one more month we will be able to go and stay a night in Atlanta, when Pieter is through with his Cardio Rehab. Three times weekly, kind of ties you down in your freedom to go as you please. But the main thing is that he's doing excellent, due to his strong will power and discipline.
Our choice of entree was a good one:
