• The Return of Honey Jr.

  {last summer} Yesterday was Honey Jr’s 30th birthday, and as such, I thought today was the perfect day for this post. (Obviously yesterday would have been more perfect, but I was busy yesterday. Oh and get this… La Poste managed to deliver the birthday card we sent Honey Jr, yesterday, like on his actual birthday.…

• The All New Le Petit Bar

  It’s happened! Remember weeks ago when I told you that Le Petit Bar had been bought by Big Man, and in February it would be fully opened, not only for drinks, but for food too? Well it has and it is. It’s like a miracle of epic proportions. That rock wall up there is Brother-in-Law’s…

• run it down

  ++ On Easter Sunday, Gatz, The Husband’s hetero life partner, made me a proud Mama (sometimes I feel responsible for him because he’s like a lost puppy). He was coming with The Husband and me to Papa’s for lunch and showed up dressed beautifully (like one of those really beautifully dressed men you see in…

• turn the lights off

  Lyon hosts a famous Fête des Lumières (festival of lights) every year on the 8th December. And this year, Le Petit Village wanted to get in on the action. Last Friday night (the 9th, not the 8th, but whatever), Honey Jr and Brother-in-Law’s party committee (the same zany little committee that brought us, Brazil Day) was…

• Brazil Day

  What does Brazil have to do with Le Petit Village? Nothing. Nothing is the answer. Until now. Every year like most villages in France, Le Petit Village has a weekend festival… it’s full of wholesome carnival fun, loads of ridiculously inexpensive champagne (does anyone remember the dragged through the hedges incident from last year?) and…

• l'épicerie

  {this photo has nothing to do with this post whatsoever} You know how Le Petit Village only has one épicerie (no boulangerie, no boucherie, no patisserie, just one épicerie)? Well that one épicerie has been closed since June 1st. June 1st! Can you believe it? Now it’s not like the thing was heavily stocked anyway,…

• One Year With The Parisian

  It’s been one year since The Parisian arrived in Le Petit Village to grace us with his unreliable presence and take over Le Petit Bar.When he first arrived, I had high hopes for him. See, the previous owner, a strange little man from up north somewhere, wasn’t very local friendly, and would tell The Husband and…

• oh là là, oh là là: Part 2

  Maybe more than four and half hours of sleep would have been a good idea. But I’m blaming that one on Fifty for waking me up at 6:30, and Mr. Aidan for keeping the party going until 2 (I’m totally blaming him). Saturday morning was all about one thing C O F F E E.…
