it's what's been happening

+ Fifty has a new girlfriend. She comes around every morning to give him kisses. It’s pretty cute. But whereas Vicky always came to the front door, this little one sneaks around to the back.

+ I made spaghetti and bacon meatballs for dinner the other night. Now don’t get too excited, they aren’t meatballs that are 100% bacon (although that does sound delicious) they are beef meatballs, with bacon ground up in them. Yeah, I’ll make these again.

+ I’m a bit scared that my cookbooks are jealous of Pinterest because I’ve totally been neglecting them and giving all of my attention to my delish dish board. I can’t help it, it’s called ‘delish’ for a reason you know.

+ Spring has truly arrived as I’ve been to three BBQs in the last two weeks, was invited to another that we had to turn down, and have one on the books for Friday. Spring time is BBQ time.

+ My French dentist calls me the little cat because he says I sound like a cat when he’s working on me. I’m not too sure how I feel about that.

+ I’ve got the moving bug again. I love The LPV but you know, it’s really freaking small (hence the name Le Petit Village) and although it is probably the most beautiful place I will ever live in my life (and the weirdest), it’s also the most inconvenient.

+ I have now finished reading The Hunger Games series as I turned the last page on Mocking Jay last night. I’m super excited because tomorrow I’m going to see the movie in Aix with Mrs. London, but am also totally bummed because I’ve finished the books. What should I read now? Suggestions please.

+ And speaking of books…

are any of you on Shelfari?

  10. I saw the Hunger Games over the weekend and loved it. I didn't read the series and now I feel that I should get started! Right now I'm reading Lunch in Paris because I'm going there in June .. all my reads are French themed at the moment. Great idea to add bacon to flavor up your meatballs – YUM!!

  11. Read “Hens Dancing” followed by “Summertime” by Raffaella Barker. Perfect for this time of year! What is Fifty's new GF's name. Perhaps, “Swifty” as she appears to move fast…

  17. A Song of Ice and Fire book series by G.R.R. Martin. They are so good.I was really disappointed by book two and book three of the Hunger Games. My friends even warned me that they weren't as good as book one, and I was still let down by them.

  22. Mmmm, barbecue. One of my favorite spring rituals. What's the usual barbecue fare there? Is it safe to assume that it is different from Kansas City or Texas?

  23. How nice for Fifty that he's got a girlfriend. Animals are so cute when they are in love! I haven't read the Hunger Games, yet and am feeling really left out since I think everyone else has. I hope to get to it soon. If you left LPV where in the heck would you go??Ashley
