The beginning

Once upon a time, MANY YEARS ago......

there was a young lady that was enchanted with all things European.

After spending time in the Netherlands as an exchange student she decided

to come home, pack up and move to Luzern. Shortly after arrival, she became engaged

to a nice dutch lad.  Aawwww (it didn't work out forever though).

The young lady did fall deeply in love with a wonderful way of life.

Walking most places, being satisfied with the smallest of  things, and the MARKETS.

The markets inspired her to try to make bath and body products.

AND. SHE. DID. FOR. YEARS.

Even after accepting a position with Clinique as a Regional Education Manager she

still made her products. She called her line THE FRENCH ELEMENTS and 

friends were given products whether they wanted them or not.

She started to get requests. After her long career ended, she thought "this is it".

An "aha" moment.

Things fell in to place.

She  worked on packaging. Still love it. It had that Provence thing

going for it-hehe.

Cute huh?

She decided to open an online shop. The look changed over time (and that was a good thing).

She loved the product, loved the shop, but something had changed.

After all those years, the PASSION WAS GONE and she believes in passion.

While still whipping up products, she started to work on other projects and 

that brings you up to date.

I am so happy to have found my passion for a second time.

Hubby, that includes you also, if you are reading this-hehe.

I know I have been scarce in blogland.

 I will attempt to ignite that passion again.

love and hugs to each of you.
