pickI absolutely adored this book. Julia writes about her enriching and love filled life in France. This book has me inspired!
#JulyJazz Day 10: The #Fireworks in Versailles were hands-down spectacular. We were fortunate to witness it when we were in France last year. This is one of the photos I managed to take, along with gorgeous videos.
pickVan Gogh‘s sunflowers build continues while I finish this book. I loved learning where the food we associate with France came into existence and what was happening at that time. I have travelled a fair bit in France so I could picture so many of the places the author talked about and the food too. It‘s time to go back
Today is the 233rd anniversary of the Baiser Lamourette (Lamourette Kissing), where priest and representative Lamourette enjoined his colleagues to make peace with each other after some stormy debates in Parliament. Hence the hugs and kisses portrayed in this ink drawing kept in the Louvre museum. I cannot picture the same thing happening today 😁
