January's Adventure

For January's adventure, I chose to visit the "Toulouse Lautrec & Contemporaries" French Poster exhibit at the Dallas Museum of Art.  I recruited my aunt, Joy, to come with me, and we had a fantastic day!  These beautiful artworks were originally created as French advertisements around the turn of the 20th Century, but their intricate details and frequent Art Deco elements are right up my alley!  I bought a print of my favourite painting, and it's now adding a touch of class to my apartment.

After spending several hours at the DMA, we went to Highland Park Village for cranberry chicken salad at Celebrity Cafe.  If you're a chicken salad connoisseur like me, you MUST go there!  They have the best in town.  It was an unusually warm day, so we were able to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather.  That alone was fantastic!  After our yummy lunch, we strolled over to Molto Formaggio, where we sampled cheese and wine.  We bought the most wonderful Brie I've ever tasted and a bottle of Austin Hope Grenache.  We took them home and had them later for a lovely dinner!
