Five Star Frou-Frou #40....linkup and features....


Frou-Frou - Noun
Meaning: Frills or other ornamentation

Origin: French, late 19th century

Imitative of the sound of a woman walking in a dress

In my imagination, this linkup is like a weekly gathering of friends, swishing around in stylish dresses and frou-frou. We all love to entertain graciously, live elegantly, dress beautifully, and gift generously, no matter our budget.

Like any regular gathering, we like to make sure we acknowledge newcomers, say hi to old friends, and share our most engaging news. Please do this...it's lovely for us all to have a new friend stop by.
 
Here are some rules on how to be a good linky guest...

1. Please follow A Tray of Bliss. I am here, on Facebook and Pinterest (as Mimi's Tray of Bliss). I now have a closed group on Facebook with the same name, and we share lovely ways of living elegantly without spending a lot, so send a request to join and you're in!

2. Please visit new friends, revisit old ones, and leave comments to show your appreciation of their work. We all love that. Everyone works hard on their projects and writing, and if this is a party, then you need to mingle!

3. I'd also love it if you'd link back to A Tray of Bliss somewhere on your page. That helps the linkup to grow. The more beautiful bloggers we have linking, the more comments and visits for all of us. Thankyou dear friends.

The collection has closed. Let other people know about it through twitter.

My apologies for the late start and features. I have had a family crisis that needed my attention. That, I am afraid, had to take priority.

On with the party...

  2. MacnCheese Muffins look so attractive not just like food, they feel like some strange musical instrument with these holes :)

  13. Hello lovely lady. I must apologise for my absence of late but I've been so busy around here lately, I don't know if I'm coming or going (or is that if I'm Arthur or Martha!). Anyway, have made it today. Hopefully things might slow down for all of us with Easter on it's way. Hope you have a fantastic week!
