    Hello Contessa , I enjoyed your pics, I.m crazy about French chandeliers with or without dust. I have 6 and 8 girandoles. I live in the French part of Canada and here we know how to appreciate these beauties

      Hello Sam,
      How lucky you are to have six chandeliers that are not electrified!Thats means they are very old!I doubt if the crystals are BACARRAT.But one never knows……………chandeliers are very “IN” at the moment and I’m certain you could sell for a good profit.

    I adore chandeliers I feel they suit any style of home (well almost) and give such a romantic edge to a room! Love these French ones

Slice eggplant length way.Salt, the pieces, and let them drain in a colander for a couple hours. Wipe off water. Fry in olive oil over low to medium flame each side until golden brown.This takes some time, but you really can’t walk away from it. Next assemble your eggplant slices put some tomato sauce on the bottom of the pan then eggplants then tomato sauce again add some torn mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese. Continue the process until all your eggplant slices are gone, bake 325 oven for about 45 minutes! Bon appétit🥰 . . #eggplantrecipes #eggplantparmigiana #dinnerisserved
