'My First Thanksgiving' by Fifty
Hi guys! It’s me Fifty. Today I’m going to tell you about my first Thanksgiving and since my mommy said it was OK, here I am. It started off on Friday. Mommy and Daddy filled the car with so much stuff, I didn’t think I’d fit too, but somehow me and my bed did and…

it was a graveyard smash
It’s been years since I’ve dressed up for Halloween, seriously, years. It’s been so long that I can’t even remember my last Halloween costume (but I do remember being Madonna for like five years in a row when I was a kid… Madonna is the Halloween gift that keeps on giving). So this year when I…

there and back again
{sugary sweetness} I suppose I can blame Brother-in-Law. After all, it was his fault that we ended up spending the night in Toulon when he told Mr. London that there was no rush in us bringing his car back (and I missed a night of desperately needed beauty sleep) and it was his Halloween party…

it happened again
{Stade Mayol} “So RCT have a home game on Thursday…” That was the text I got from Mrs. London talking about All Saints Day (the 1st of November). All Saints day is a holiday here in France, and what better way to spend a day off than by watching Mr. London do his thing (RCT is Toulon…

Autumn Redux
Since Autumn is in full swing here in Le Petit Village, I’d thought I’d share with you my classic tale of one of The LPV’s favorite Autumn activities; mushroom foraging. Except in this tale, I didn’t do the foraging, Papa did. I simply dealt with the aftermath (the grizzly, horrible, aftermath).Originally posted: 22 October 2009 …

staycation {part.8}
{Me + Aix sitting in a tree} When we weren’t touring the South of France in a minivan, this stuff happened: ++ Fifty got himself stuck out on out on the ledge. I came home from the market, and was surprised that Fifty wasn’t at the door waiting for me as he usually is. I…

staycation {part.7}
“Did you know Aix-en-Provence is known as the city of a thousand fountains?“ This was me getting my tour guide on as we drove into Aix. “A thousand fountains, really?“ This was The Husband doubting my superior tour guide knowledge. Now normally that would have bugged the bejeezus out of me, but due to The…

staycation {part.4}
Oh Cassis, I love you so. You’re quaint, charming, and just the right size. Plus you don’t attract all of that St.Tropez riff raff. The next stop on Staycation 2012 was Cassis. It was possibly also everyone’s next stop because boy oh boy was it crowded, but that’s OK, Cassis is worth the hassle. We were…
