Well, I didn't know if I was going to post or not this morning.
Blogger has been down so much lately. But, here I am with a new
challenge for you.
In all this time of doing this challenge, we've yet to use
Marie Antoinette for our inspiration.The time has come.

"Let them eat cake"
We are all familiar with her famous quote.
This is kind of interesting....Myth Busted: Marie Antoinette eHow.com
Truth be known, the attribution is doubly erroneous in English, because the word "cake" is a mistranslation. In the original French the alleged quote reads, "Qu'ils mangent de labrioche," which means, literally, "Let them eat rich, expensive, funny-shaped, yellow, eggy buns."
If and when Blogger cooperates, I'll be stopping in to
visit with you and Marie.
I enjoyed my stroll down the Spanish Alley with you last week.
Thanks so much for joining me each week. It is a real
joy for me to come around and see your beautiful artwork.
Jeanette
