Dear Blog Readers,
We have become the kind of blogger we never wanted to be — the kind who has a "read our blog" button on our website but the newest post is months old. We blame Facebook for this — it's so much easier to write something there and we seem to have more followers there than we did here on the blog. Still, we can't quite bring ourselves to give it up altogether yet — so instead, we're posting this little note to explain our lack of current entries. Please do check out our facebook page, we think it's fun, if not quite as long form.
sincerely, the Joie de Blogger.

Behind the curtain at Joie...

heh heh heh... now that the cat is away, we Joielings are well, er, ummm... ready to blame whatever may happen on devil duckie!
WHOOPS! did you see THAT?!
oh noooo... we'll never be able to explain this...
me? I thought YOU were supposed to be here at 10 this morning...
hmmm... does the computer screen often go blank like this?

But all kidding aside (ahem), in Linda's absence we would like to acknowledge her amazing presence at Joie de Vivre. How many times has a customer said to us: "This place is like a museum — you should charge admission!" ...or "Who finds all this great stuff?" ...or "This place is too fun." So yes, there really is one tireless mastermind behind Joie — someone who not only finds the best tiny plastic ducks, smiling whirling sugar bowls, a device that makes horses gallop, dogs run and hummingbirds fly, and books that make you laugh 'til you cry, but also creates a whimsical atmosphere in which to bring them to you.

Enjoy your well-earned vacation Linda! (we're pretty sure the carpet will have dried out by the time you get back...)
