If a mysterious black car pulled into my driveway today, I would get right in. I would step into the backseat and the driver would give me a knowing little wink and then hand me an envelope with the initials 'SBH'. We would drive a little further and pick up my husband and he would inform me that the kids, dog and cat were being looked after this week and that my list of to-do's had become a list of 'dones'. After getting a whole lotta tipsy on a few glasses of really good champagne, we would arrive at the airport, say a quick 'a bientot' to the snow, open the envelope to find two plane tickets and be escorted right into the first-class section of a plane headed for St. Barts (SBH). We would arrive at a private villa at the Eden Rock, fall into bed and sleep for 3 days straight.
After we finally wake up, this is what I would find in my perfectly-packed suitcase:
(oh, and did I mention I would have Gisele Bundchen's Eden Rock-hard body? Come on, it's my fantasy!)

Oh! For a minute there I forgot I was in the middle of making shake and bake for dinner while it rained/snowed outside! That was a nice way to uplift my grey day.....thanks RLR.
P.S Quite different from our old stomping grounds in the south of France...xoxox
You mean Nice wasn't quite as nice as France in the Antilles?
Oh Non! Nice was beautiful, our quaint villa behind the train station was cute... just not a fancy posh hotel and 5 star restaurant like in the photos above. (But good friends and lots of vino made it perfect!)
ze train station was sublime. ah, i can smell it now! hee
