i was looking for guimauve marias all morning yesterday, but {running up to saint nicholasnot one shop stocked them. i had a plan, a plan that failed through lack of marias. so i got myself a time out instead. {funnily enough, maria is also plural form to the lunar mare, or the dark regions on the moon. i could have done something lunatic !} patrice, in full admiration of all of the venetian marias around {yep-i-know-that-feeling}, on her blog this weekend.

  8. ha-ha! but don't ask me what i thought they were at first! (hint:the second idea was that they were balloons). you do keep us guessing.

    is this a rude comment to leave?

  9. Ha Ha, I must admit that I did not know what it Guimauve means. I thought "she looked Marias painted by Cimabue, and did not find any" then I searched in Google.
    Ok. Guimauve Marias exist? :O
    ;)))

  18. Haha, it seems it's no Maria season right now! They're back again for Christmas or whatever holy event there might come...still in their holidays, taking their time-out! Haha! Reminds me of a children's book I once had which asked what father christmas does during the rest of the year. Of course he was on vacations, having a good time at the beach. Maybe with a bus full of Guimauve Marias? Who knows...Big hugs for this (and even more) and sorry I haven't been around last time...time-out, you know? ;o))
