To Be Perfectly Frank; Oh! Such Lovely Libeco Linens!

Whither Mr. Franco, literary PhD candidate? 

I didn't see him at Yale this past week, but that was just fine, for I happily indulged my inner Francophone by chatting en francais avec a fellow Canadian at the delightful Atticus bookstore (wonderfully edited-and-presented books; terrific cards for sale--they were mini works of art--decadent espresso and pastry bar too).

I also delighted in the French textiles at Metaphore, which offers a small but beautifully presented (there's that word again; am clearly in thrall to presentation) selection of European table linens, bed linens, and tableware. 

There I could have spent many a Franc--O, I could have done so, but I took home simply a rustic table runner from Libeco, made from Belgian linen. 

Je suis contente.


This post is not sponsored; I simply like the Belgian linen logo.

Your punning is more than present-able today -- excellent!
I've posted a wee tribute to you today . . . a bit of you in Paris. Come see. . .

That is just beautiful... makes me feel bad for the way my "dinner table" looks here at home.

Very clever way with words, and yes, very lovely table linens!
