What a lovely pic. Great warm colors.
Gorgeous! :) I am totally taking this for my desktop.
Beautiful! I really like your blog!
ksklein - I agree. It was kind of moment where, if they scripted it, I'd be standing in front of their window with my lover, delighted by the colors and the heady romance.
Hey there Erin. It would make a cool desktop, eh? Nice!
Ashley - thanks! I look forward to hearing from you.
Happy trails-
Traca
What an awesome place! I got to visit while I was waiting for our table at Delancey's next door. Was so tempting to get an umbrella or two :)
