Love your outfit! And I’m shocked that there are any champagne-opening virgins out there (especially if they are friends with you! lol) I’ve not had cassis but I’ve had Pernod (is that the same?)…I kinda like it- it’s my hubby’s tipple of choice.

Gillian March 7, 2012 at 4:23 pm: Thanks Deb! I think Marisa’s got it down pat after Paris. Cassis is a black currant liqueur – very different from Pernod – but I love Pernod mixed with water in the summer! So good! Put me on a warm patio with that any day!

I want to believe I can do the champagne popping, but I swear it’s one of those things that just makes me feel like a girl! I can change your oil no problem, but can you open my champagne pour moi?

Gillian March 7, 2012 at 6:00 pm: You change the oil (and teach me how to drive), and I’ll pop the champagne. Just not at the same time.
