Riding in Cars With Boys
Howdy mes amis! Ça va? I know that I’ve promised Paris posts, and I pinky swear, they’re coming, but I’m finding it a tad difficult at the moment to get into any sort of gay Paree mood while I’m hanging out with two Irish lads 24/7, and filling my days with rats and snails and puppy dog…

Easter Weekend
Easter weekend was one of those times when my new life felt a million miles away from my old life. Not in any sort of better or worse way, just extremely different. Whereas last year was spent having a quiet Easter in Auvergne with French Maman and French Nana, this year was spent entertaining and…

aye yai yai
Oh life, will you ever calm the eff down? You might have noticed that I’m still not in top blogging form. Life has been throwing a few too many distractions toward me at the moment, albeit most of them good (most of them… thank heavens). Since Gregory and Fifty arrived three weeks ago, we’ve been busy…

So Long Toulong
Disclaimer: Technically the title of this post should read; So Long Toulon, but I felt like jazzing it up a bit, with a rhyme. It’s not the best rhyme in the world, but how about you humor me and pretend like it is. Driving to Toulon from Le Petit Village for the last time was…

We're Driving Cadillacs In Our Dreams
// Gregory has a developed a full on obsession with Cadillacs. Not the shiny new ones, and definitely not those SUVs, but old Cadillacs. Like anything older than about ten years and he’s oohing and aahing all over it and demanding to know the cost, as if my brain is stored with Cadillac’s blue book…

Behind The Photos XIV
Today’s edition of Behind The Photos feature a hodge podge mix of pictures from the Autumn of 2010… snapshots of random bits of life in The LPV. And because it’s darn near impossible to think of Le Petit Village without thinking of every one’s favorite honey farmer, I feel it’s only right to kick off…

One Last Lunch in Cassis
Before leaving France (but after leaving Le Petit Village), we had some stops to make; first for a couple of nights in Toulon, followed by two more in Paris. Then my mother had a stroke of genius, “how about we stop in Cassis on the way to Toulon.” Of course we could squeeze in one…

Waking Up With Honey Jr
Today marks one month since I left France… one month! I can hardly believe it. I think Gregory and Fifty being here barely a week has made everything seem all so new and recent again. Things are going well here, we’re settling in, but mostly chasing our tails. Well I’m chasing my tail anyway. I’m…

here we go again
{the long journey home} Clearly I have learned nothing from the past… Once again, I thought I could simply go through major life changes all the while keeping this space ticking over. Silly Sara Louise, it’s not happening. While it feels like I finally have a grip on my new repatriated life here in America,…

What About Gregory
{The LPV: November 2009} Today’s the day! After three and a half weeks of living life as a pseudo-single girl; total remote control domination, easy peasy bed making (while I barely move during my sleep, Gregory twists and turns like a whirling dervish wrapped inside a tornado) and Lifetime Movie Network marathons, I am being…
It's Me, Sara Louise
