Simply Irresistible-FRANCE-A link party.

 With sweet French music playing,


I will be waiting for you at a favorite local cafe.

Out back of the cafe is the most charming

spot in their patio I picked out for Us.

I pre-ordered  our desserts,I'll leave the lunch for you to pick out for us.

Pastries, My all time faves and I've heard the drinks hear are divine.



 Chocolates that are sinful-EKKS,let's splurge  ; )
While waiting for you, I went out shopping the streets of Paris,there was a sweet shop girl (above) that helped Me pick out and buy a little gift for you,My dearest pen-pal .Going back to the cafe now.Can't wait to see you, I'm so excited to finally meet you sweet blogging friend.I will be the one in this lavender and white outfit,hmm or maybe this black and white one,just maybe this lil' French outfit straight from Paris. :) Anyways.....
Hugs Denise.        Anita from Castles,Crowns and Cottages will be joining us too,we'll have a great time.

One more gastric bypass update:

NEW PHOTO :)Well,I haven't given an update in My bariatric  gastric bypass journey I'm on in several months.It's been  10 months since My surgery.I'm trying not to weigh myself as much now.As of last week sometime I've lost about 107 lbs and it's still coming off.Many of you might recognize My profile pic. I had up for the whole time I've been blogging .I recently changed it to a more recent pic., and when I'm finished losing weight I'll change it again. It is now real easy after 10 months,a breeze to follow through with.It's true though and can bare repeating,the first few months are tough,but so worth it. Easy and beneficial if any of you are still wondering and want to know what it's like.Makes you feel ages younger,so healthy and light on your feet.
OLD PHOTO :)In bathing suit and cover-up.He loves Me no matter and has for 36 years.


It's  easier to babysit my little Loves.They too love Grammie no matter.He was sure set up for the whole day.It can be tons of fun teaching them to use their imagination,esp. 100lbs lighter.



May have posted some of these already,but gee I'm so forgetful lately.

Thank you all who have traded so many goodies and crafts with Me.I know I don't post My gifts right away,I'm not good at that and I'm very sorry. I'm also getting a little forgetful as I said,a whole different story.I love all you sweet bloggie friends out there and treasure each of you,no matter  Denise P.S. I hope someone tells Me if I'm repeating or redoing posts.Is it apart of being 60 years old or just maybe I need to go to the Doc.? EEKS!

One of my favourite songs that makes me realise God’s always around. — Dancing with God, Verse 1: You dance over me While I am unaware, You sing all around But I never hear the sound, Chorus: Lord, I’m amazed by You Lord, I’m amazed by You Lord, I’m amazed by You How You love me Verse 2: You paint the moring sky With miracles in mind, My hope will always stand, For You hold me in Your hand.
