The setting for the book signing was Parrin and Co, the most charming antiques shop owned by Barbara Farmer. When Barbara mentioned months before that we must have champagne and macarons for the evening, I knew she was my kind of person.
Her good friend Silvia was enlisted to keep the bubbly flowing, and, let me tell you, Silvia took her mission seriously. Every where I turned, there was Silvia, vigilantly keeping my glass always full.

Hailing from the Midwest myself, I wasn't surprised by how warm everyone was, but this was taken to new heights when a taxi driver showed up hours later with my wallet, which I hadn't even realized I lost.
Many thanks to Barbara and Patricia for a sensational soiree - I can't wait to come back. Click here for more Kansas City fabulosity courtesy of Elle Decor.
And when you're next in KC, be sure to visit Barbara at Parrin and Co. (there may even still be some lavender macarons left):

We will do it again for the next book! Can't wait to see you soon.
I was so disappointed that I had "Command Performance" with my husband's job. Bummer! Thought about you. Love the shoes of course...and the book. I told myself I needed to wait until winter had come to the garden giving me time off to read, ponder and enjoy this book. I gave up and devoured the first 50 pages. Can't wait to have time to finish the rest. Glad you enjoyed KC and the delightful Mrs. B and Soodie.
What a beautiful and heart-warming post!
EEE you made our town just sparkle! we were so glad to have you here.
The World of Madeleine Castaing is the MOST wonderful book, I'm inspired and fastinated, can't put it down!
