Smack dab in the middle of one of the busiest weeks in my year
I was invited to meet some blogger friends face to face.
I just couldn’t say no to a chance to spend some time with these gals.
Yesterday we met and toured an historic estate, had lunch and then went antiquing.
The day was all kinds of lovely.
I have over 150 photos to sort through and edit so it will be a few days before I show and tell!
In the meanwhile, of all the goodies in the huge antique mall, these little cuties are what I brought home…
…tiny tart pans from France.
They are heavier and sturdier than the newer thin, lightweight ones that bend so easily.
I’m thinking they would look cute in a table setting with little tea lights in them.
Of course, they’d look even better filled with some pastry
and some lemon curd,
or cherries,
or berries,
or chocolate!
HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE and HAVE A BLESSED WEEKEND!

Did you want to offer these up in a giveaway where, I of course, am the winner? Oh mercy me, I love those.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely time. I'll take chocolate, please. ;)
ReplyDeleteIt was such a fun day. I'm so glad you could go with us. Your new little tart pans are so sweet. Love how you've filled them up!

Loving your tart pans, and as I read my mind went to a half dozen ways to use them right off the bat.
ReplyDeleteOf course, just offering up a combo of raisins and almonds (a favorite of mine) would be fine with me.
How sweet...and speaking of sweet, fill one with chocolate for me!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos of your tart pans and such a pretty subject.
ReplyDeleteloving your tins and the idea of adding tea lights...YES! i will probably obsess all night about these tins and begin hunting tomorrow!
