There is no question that the success of Beadboard has been through a lot of hard work and making ourselves available to our fabulous customers sometimes on a 24/7 basis.
At lot of people ask us what motivates us from October, when things start hopping out here, through the holiday season.
Aside from the fact that we are not retired and want to insure Beadboard's success, we need a carrot, or something to look forward to after the crunch time is over.....
The "carrot" is going to Paris for market, to clear our heads and spirits....We didn't know if we could afford to go this year, but the shop Gods were kind to us and we are going. The problem was how could we get a great place at this late date????? We are avid cooks and last time a microwave-roasted Bresse chicken didn't quite cut the mustard...And, could we get plane reservations on a nonstop flight? We asked our readers if they knew of someone that had an apartment for lease and can you believe it?????????
We got several responses all worth checking out.
We will show more of the lovely "Apartement La Carotte"(our nickname for the apartment we leased) when we get there,
but thanks to a reader named Jenny we will be cooking some dinners in THIS kitchen.
We would like to offer our heartfelt thanks to her and others for responding to us.
I will also be doing a series of informational blogs with pictures on how to get in to some of the best boutique hotels and some of the best connections for apartment hunting in the
City of Lights, sharing our experiences, great restaurants and shopping, along with websites you can access that are of extraordinary help.
