I haven't been to Chicago yet, but was in Zurich and saw Chagall's stained glass there. Magnificent. I have also been to Giverney in France to Monet's home. You can see his paintings in his garden. I have never seen such a garden!<br />And Cezanne's fruit is famous... The Dutch and Flemmish artists are also my favourite. Thank you so much for the early morning edification.<br />:)<br />ValerieA Canadian Foodiehttp://www.acanadianfoodie.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4559496255453564057.post-66661892305172778312010-11-08T05:50:59.955-06:002010-11-08T05:50:59.955-06:00The French Impressionists are our favorites.

I love how you served it in shot glasses. I'll have to give that a try. Sometimes we serve soup as an appetizer in demitasse cups. People are always so surprised and pleased with the presentation.<br />SamSam Hoffer / My Carolina Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358601435867848753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4559496255453564057.post-63058736213232853522010-11-07T06:33:06.595-06:002010-11-07T06:33:06.595-06:00This sounds really delicious, and I love the idea ...This sounds really delicious, and I love the idea of serving shots to your Thanksgiving guests!abbeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09301137636094649236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4559496255453564057.post-46564777381552764132010-11-05T14:17:21.240-05:002010-11-05T14:17:21.240-05:00Thank you, everyone!

Yes, too bad we didn't know each other before you moved!<br /><br />OBCS, thanks :) The bowls are BIA brand from Homegoods about two yeas ago and the plate was from Homegoods too even before then. I only have two bowls and one plate! I've been looking for more ever since I got these but no luck yet.SavoringTime in the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14416968440250548090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4559496255453564057.post-33259413269514342442010-11-05T13:26:13.995-05:002010-11-05T13:26:13.995-05:00What a lovely weekend you must have had!

We gave a membership to that museum as a college graduation gift to our friends daughter - she said it was one of the best gifts because she got to use it over and over when company came to visit. Your celery soup sounds wonderful, I've never made it, but I think I'll try to get it on this weeks menu. What a great idea for Thanksgiving! I'm sure your guests will be very impressed. I love the addition of the celery leaves or even some fine hearts from the middle of the celery, you could even sprinkle a few celery seeds on top! The bowl is beautiful! Is that your everyday dinnerware? What brand is it? Thank you for your nice words about my little cockapoo, he's a sweetie pie!

We did that with Tomato Basil at my son's wedding reception last January and everyone loved the presentation.<br />My 16 year old son just informed me today that I was to have a crock of soup for him all winter long so he can come home from school and enjoy!<br /><br />If you decide to do the marzipan it is so easy, it is just like working with playdough. As a matter of fact the grandkids were up on the counter helping. Theirs were not as pretty, but the 18 month old sure was eating them - no matter how they looked.Jacquelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10074013194838958441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4559496255453564057.post-56039214430827743752010-11-04T22:21:26.194-05:002010-11-04T22:21:26.194-05:00Chagall's stained glass windows are just amazi...Chagall's stained glass windows are just amazing.

We are fortunate to be about 45 minutes away (if the traffic is with us). We have also enjoyed your lovely museum by the lake. We first visited when the exhibit of Polish art was there (five or so years ago). I was just thinking celery soup (since the crisper drawer has some that needs to be used). <br /><br />Best,<br />BonnieFrom the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00789641912016566894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4559496255453564057.post-36870939231560141092010-11-04T17:31:25.713-05:002010-11-04T17:31:25.713-05:00The windows are beautiful!
