mes amis.
i love the chiens et chats in france. they seem to have so much character. i especially love this dog that i met in saint paul de vence. i really want to turn her into a cartoon character. can’t you just picture her going on adventures with WILMA ?!
and this CHAT . . . i really think he has a lot to say.

50 shades of linen.
i love LOVE LOVE old french linens. something about it makes me so happy.
today i went to the big flea market in NICE and purchased a large quantity of old linen kitchen towels. this should tide me over for a year or so.

like butter.
this might be the most amazing butter that has crossed my lips. it is from Normandy and has chunks of sea salt in it. it’s creamy, salty, and sweet. i actually think you CAN live on bread and butter alone.
and the packaging is pretty sweet, too.
