I know I wish I had some for dinner tonight.
So fun to see this reblogged here Suzanne, I loved this post so much! Ah, you guys feel like old friends to me. I really wish I lived close enough for the next dinner party to be at my house…. Don’t suppose you and the pugs feel like moving to Australia?! Hugs xx
I would love to move to Australia, don’t get me wrong Brooklyn is great but Australia and New Zealand are places I have always wanted to see. They are so beautiful. Would love to come over for dinner.
