Our shop is Mignonne, if you google Mignonne Oakland you'll see all about us. We have been in business 2 years. It is hard, but rewarding. I plan to continue to spend some time in the bay area as well as France. Small world is right! hi Owen, me again! Our shop is Mignonne, if you google Mignonne Oakland you’ll see all about us.

I went to school at Berkeley and stayed for 12 years. If I ever have to move back to the US it will be to the Bay Area. Jean-Jacques and I had a gallery/home decor shop in Philadelphia that we wold just before we moved. Where is your store in Oakland and what is it called. I haven't lived there since 2002 but if it was opened before then I probably know it. Thanks for reading, whoever said online friends aren't as intimate as real ones? I was having a crappy day and this really made me feel connected to a past that I thought was long gone. I don’t remember hearing you are from Oakland, that is bizarre.

I 'm much enamored of this simple process and it is fun to check and see new postings all summarized neatly for us avid readers. Speaking of, I've added Michelle's blog to my reader! thanks to her and you for sharing, I'm looking forward to perusing more of her posts and her wry style. I did tell you I'm from Oakland, right? Portland is a detour, but both kids and our décor shop are in Oakland ... the bay area is my favorite place in the U.S., having travelled through much of it. Ah well, thanks again for this great idea. I might have to plagiarize down the road ... with a different theme of course so as not to be too redundant. Owen, I second the comments about the reader.
