Today, Le Petit Village is hosting a small festival. It’s small because Le Petit Village is small and small is all we can handle. But even though it will be small, we are expecting an even greater number of tourists than normal (the parking lot was filled last night, with cars parked in the field…

Let Them Drink Rosé (and Pastis)
some guy named Monet painted this Today we celebrate La Fête Nationale. 221 years ago (2010 – 1789 = 221, right?), the Bastille was stormed and some heads rolled (literally).

Busy Busy Busy
It’s moving weekend. Yesterday we got the keys to our new home and have started the massive clean up (homes in France don’t come sparkling clean and empty). I want it clean clean clean before we move our stuff over. And that wonderful little garden I’m so excited about needs a little work… A lot…

The Husband's Birthday
Yesterday, was The Husband’s birthday and to celebrate, I did something I rarely do, I baked (I’m a cooker, not much of a baker). (And if you remember a couple posts back, it was Brother-In-Law’s birthday only a few days ago… guess what Papa likes to do in September… bowchickabowwow). We have a teeny tiny…
It's Me, Sara Louise
