Summery picnics outdoors and out with the doors!

 We have residing in our house this evening a couple of wine specialists from Portland, Oregon and two lovely older British clients.....a superb summer evening where we all lingered in the garden and enjoyed the warm balmy evening... dining on picnic foods of salmon quiche, cold meats and salad followed by French cheeses and Eau de Vie drenched slow poached peaches....sipping chilled Chablis as the sun slipped behind the stone buildings....a delight...

Meanwhile Liliana has spent the long weekend practicing riding her bike on the stones...



The 2CV has been dragged out of the garage for a clean up and made its way, with the top flipped, to it's first summer brocante...

A great day out at Marcilly Sur Seine...where I picked up the most ginormous bunch of rhubarb to substitute my poor plants that are doing their best supply to demand! Try it cooked with a bit of sugar and stirring in sliced strawberries at the last minute...warm with Greek yoghurt it takes breakfast to another level...

And the building project gets ever closer to completion...down and out with the old glass doors!
