Drinking Stars

I was listening to a program on the origins of champagne and heard that upon discovering champagne, French Benedictine monk Dom Pierre Pérignon exclaimed:
Come quickly, I am drinking the stars!"
I looked it up and saw that apparently it's a myth. No matter. It's a lovely image whomever wrote it!
Dancing. Champagne. Laughter. Romance.

Bonjour chère amie,

Je cours tant en ce moment et j'ai manqué de nombreux petits billets... Aujourd'hui je me suis régalée en faisant un petit retour en arrière !

Cette dernière oeuvre illustre parfaitement la belle vision que le champagne pourrait provoquer ! Des bulles de toutes les couleurs de bonheur et de bonheur rare et précieux tout comme le Dom Pérignon !
Très jolie peinture.
Gros bisous ♡

Wow! Spectacular work. That is how I feel about Veuve Cliquot. It is like drinking stars.

This is a wonderful painting.

XOXOXOXOXO Barbara

I still like the story, even it is a myth!

Beautiful painting and, yes, quite bubbly!
