Thought of the month – April
April... The weather is getting all other the place... Living in England, I am always surprised to see the four seasons unfolding during a single day. If you want to do some gardening or a walk, you better start as soon as a ray of sunshine comes and hope that you will finish before the… Continue reading Thought of the month – April
Thought of the Month – March
Longer days, flowers blooming, warmer temperatures... March is here! February went by so quickly! The main event of my month was the visit of my dearest friend Myriam, who visits me from France as soon as she can. What a chance to have friends living so far away but with which I feel so close… Continue reading Thought of the Month – March
The joy of hosting
I love dinner parties. I believe it comes from my Mediterraneen upbringing.

The nice dinnerware was displayed, the ladies… Continue reading The joy of hosting

I come from a quite modest background and we could not afford to throw away food. As an adult, I able to afford to grocery shop without thinking… Continue reading My meal planning method
Thoughts of the month – January
The start of the year. A blank page. A clean slate. An opportunity to make it better. A fresh start. New ideas. New objectives. The first of January is the opportunity to wake up before everybody in the house (I tend to have house guests at this time of the year to celebrate the New… Continue reading Thoughts of the month – January
I am back
Yes, after so many years, I am back. What happen you would say? So many things... Nice things, less nice things, some horrible things. A break-up and the sudden loss of my father withing three months. I have been working hard to get better. Just getting out of bed was hard. I got better. Slowly,… Continue reading I am back
