For those of you who have been with me for awhile, I’m sure you’re looking at the title of this post and are all like, “first Raclette, my hiney the first Raclette!” And you would be right, because heaven knows, I’ve been around the Raclette block more than once. But this post is about the…

Behind the Photos XV
Last night I was watching one of those Anthony Bourdain travel food shoes. He was in my beloved Lyon, and I was hungry… all of that delicious food in France that I’m missing; the wine, the saucisson, the cheese… oh the cheese! In honor of all of that cheese, I bring you this Behind the…

Raclette Redo
You know what’s ridiculous… what’s down right un-LPV-like? The fact that it’s the middle of January, and I have yet to blog about a single Raclette. It’s HOGWASH!

Raclette Season
Well it’s official, winter is here. OK, I’m sure you’re thinking to yourself, “now hold your horses Sara Louise, winter doesn’t start until December 21st” and you would be right, except in Le Petit Village (and the Southern Hemisphere of course).

the gorgonzola incident
{gorgonzola} true story. I heart gorgonzola, I heart it hard (p.s I love Italian wine too… don’t tell Le Villagers that). And last Friday, while doing some grocery shopping with The Husband, I came across a scrumptious hunk of gorgonzola. I picked it up, looked at The Husband and declared,”I have the most perfect recipe…

yep, that's about it
The weekend pretty much went down like this: Friday night I wanted pizza… and to any of you who read me way back when, you’re probably saying to yourself; no silly, pizza night in Le Petit Village is Tuesday night, everyone knows that. But what I haven’t told you, is our old pizza man gave…

the raclette that almost wasn't
{La Petite and her Tonton} Now I realize that the holidays have passed what with the Epiphany having gone and occurred and all, but I’m not about to let you get away with not hearing about my New Year’s Eve (although it wasn’t too exciting, so no need to hold on to your hats or…
