My bookstore fantasy
It will be a combination used bookstore and café. I will run the bookstore and my wife will run the café. That way we will both become equally wealthy.
We’ll call it Ussalone Books. As a sly rebuke to Quebec’s language inspectors, the name above the doorway will read “Livres Ussalone.”
Customers will be drawn off the street by the smell of early-morning croissants in the kitchen and the sight of late-period Colette in the window. The sign above the display will read “Let’s Colette a Day.” That joke will never get old.

Good one, Lis and his blog is great! How’s it going?
I know, he’s a real gem. Naturally funny.
I’m okay. And “okay,” unfortunately, is the equivalent of somebody’s GREAT! That’s about the highest level I rise to lately. What about you? Just okay, or are you having some happier days? I think about you all the time… isn’t it funny how we are so connected by our travails and good times too. I told Lily that this blogging community probably saved my life – yup, I was that low, I’m afraid. I really feel like I’m tied to my friends on here — Like we’re on a big raft together. Sometimes the water is calm and we’re all happy for it, and other times it’s rough and we cling to each other for safety and balance. You’ve been a part of both for me, Brig. Maybe one day soon we’ll sit down and write a screenplay and think up an awesome soundtrack. 🙂
I’m right there with you. It is rainy and the wind is blowing, blowing, blowing. I am having some happier days, it’s a process. I know this and you know this, right? I feel the same and you, my dear one, have made me feel good and special on more than one occasion. Thank you. And helz yeah, let’s write that screenplay. I KNOW the music would be phenomenal, we have such stellar taste and all. We do.
Hey Lisa, a good one to reblog…hope all is well in your world…been out of touch for a while…Susie’s father was slow in passing so we spent as much time as possible with him…as soon as the spirit heals a little more we will back at it…much love and many blessings from the entire Edwards household and the Gang of 5…be encouraged!
Oh Stephen, I guess I didn’t realize. Please send Susie my love and give her an extra hug from me. I’ll be thinking of you guys.
All my love!
Lisa

Thanks for the reblog.. off to read the entire post 🙂
You’ll love it, Lynne. He’s a clever writer and naturally funny, to boot.
Thanks for sending all these fine folks my way.
You’re very welcome. You deserve it. I love your blog. 🙂
This was lovely.
I think you would like his blog. He’s very funny and so creative. Real talent.
Well you’ve never steered me wrong yet with your awesome taste. I’ll give’ em a follow.
You won’t regret it. I hope you’re having a great day. I keep my kind little postcards in the kitchen so when I pass them (and lemme just say – it’s often that I’m in the kitchen. Lol!) I think of you. xoxo
You’re making me smile. I’m sick in bed. I don’t think I’ve slept this much in a year ( ha)
Oh no!! I hope it’s something mild and not gross. Well, little angel friend, you get yourself better. Get plenty of rest, as much as you need. I’ll be thinking of you. Feel better!! xoxox
Brilliant! Can I be your partner, I make killer muffins and fudge! 🙂
Coincidentally, we pay our employees with muffins and fudge, so this could be helpful.
