Table Matters FIRST BRIDAL EVENT! Saturday, June 26th, 11AM to 2PM - Lots of vendors!

New store, Bagatelle, opening in Mtn Brook Village on July 9th! DRAWING!

Quote from the new owner–


"Bagatelle will be opening on July 9th with a Bastille Day Sale of 20% off all Yves Delorme products.  The address is 2415 Montevallo Road, and we have no phone as of yet.  As part of the new store opening, we will have a drawing for a $500 gift certificate for Yves Delorme linens!" 

It is considered a home concept store.  Yves Delorme has opened one in Santa Barbara, Dallas, and Washington.  They own these stores.  Mine will be the first in the country, privately owned.  The BIG stores are in Paris, St. Petersburg, and Dubai.  The exciting part for me is that it is French designed, and made in Europe.   While we won't have everything in the beginning that I would like to have (and couldn't possibly because of space limitations), we will continue to get shipments from France through the fall.  This store will have a French contemporary touch to it as well.

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT!

Mountain Brook 'woman on the street' will be blogging from the coast! Help her out and follow her blog!

In her own words...

"I will be touring the Gulf Coast for two weeks. I will be traveling from Biloxi, MS to Apalachicola, FL. My plan is to gather updates and stories from the extremely important fishing communities we Southerners depend so much on. But I also plan to look in on the recreational beaches where I spent most of my childhood summers. Maybe not surprisingly, in my preliminary research, it seems to me that the situations down there are far more nuanced than we realized.

On my trek, I will also be reporting stories and oral histories for The Southern Foodways Alliance (www.southernfoodways.com), a tirelessly supportive organization that seeks to report on, preserve, and celebrate Southern Food Culture. So please follow and support them, as well.

Please follow the blog and share the link, if you're inclined. But also please feel free to weigh in if there are folks/businesses/restaurants/views you want me to check out while I'm down there. I'd love for the experience to be interactive.
