Bonboniera Have Moved

After fifteen years at our premises at L’Aumone the time had come to find bigger premises, there is only so much you can squeeze into a shoebox!

So the search was on for bigger, brighter premises, who would have thought that it would have been so difficult.

After looking at many, many properties the thought was that this was an impossible task.

Everything we looked at was either in the wrong location, was too small, too large, had no parking, needed total renovation, had a higher rent than our annual turnover, or was just plain wrong in all respects….

Then a chance conversation with a friend who is in the commercial property sector led us to what we think is just about perfect…

The property is recently renovated, is an ideal size for our needs, is light, bright and airy, has bags of allocated parking right outside the door, and is in a perfect just

Happy Birthday To You

There is one thing and one thing only that announces to
everyone it is time for cake, and it is my birthday. The
words are simple and everyone who can speak English knows
the words, from a toddler to someone who is 100 years old.

Comprised of 4 bars, 16 words each the tune is simple and
the meaning is deep.

In fact, according to the Guinness Book of World Records,
Happy Birthday is the most popular song in the English
Language.

And although it has been translated into many different
languages, it is usually sung in English, even in countries
that dont speak English as their primary language.

The Hill sisters composed the tune, -Happy Birthday To
You-, in 1893. Originally the schoolteachers wrote the tune
to a song entitles -Good Morning To You- and was sung to
the classroom every morning.

But the version we know was copyrighted in 1935 and the

A mother’s love determines how
We love ourselves and others.
There is no sky we’ll ever see
Not lit by that first love.

Stripped of love, the universe
Would drive us mad with pain;
But we are born into a world
That greets our cries with joy.

How much I owe you for the kiss
That told me who I was!
The greatest gift–a love of life–
Lay laughing in your eyes.

Because of you my world still has
The soft grace of your smile;
And

Friends are like Balloons

Friends are like balloons; once you let them go, you might not get them back.

Sometimes we get so busy with our own lives and problems that we may not even notice that we’ve let them fly away.

Sometimes we are so caught up in who’s right and who’s wrong that we forget what’s right and wrong.

Sometimes we just don’t realize what real friendship means until it is too late..

I don’t want to let that happen so I’m gonna tie you to my heart so I never lose you.

Destination Wedding Etiquette

Destination weddings are very popular.  In fact, in some ways, etiquette rules have not yet caught up to the destination theme at all!  Yet, when it comes to this type of wedding style, you really do have a lot to think about before you go off to get married.

Destination weddings are weddings in which you will travel to a location other than any place near to you, to be married.  These weddings are common in resorts and other fabulous places.  Yet, although they are so popular, that does not mean that they are the best choice for everyone, especially those with a large family that is expecting a large celebration of the wedding.

While the ultimate decision about a destination wedding is all up to you, it is common practice to insure that the wedding satisfies everyone’s needs.  Here are some basic tips that

4 Easy To Make Christmas Decorations

Homemade Christmas decorations are some of the most unique and cost effective. They are also a lot of fun because you can enjoy them with your family.

Stringing Popcorn

If you like strung popcorn, it’s really simple to make. Start with a big bowl of popcorn (unbuttered, of course) and string it piece by piece using a standard sewing needle and thread. Make sure there’s plenty of popcorn because if you’re stringing it for garlands you’re going to need a lot.

Cranberry Stringing

Much like the popcorn stringing method, many people used to string cranberries using a standard needle and thread. Again, make sure there’s plenty to go around if you’re going to use it as garland. Most importantly, and I know it’s tempting, don’t eat all the decorations. Save some for the Christmas tree.

Paper Chains

One of the greatest memories of decorating for Christmas, as a child, has to be the traditional paper chains.
