  8. I love Provence! Have vacationed there 3 times with some artists, one in St Sauterin near Apt and twice in Gault. Since I am not an artist, I did the driving as I can do the stick shift!

    Your beautiful posts make me smile and tear up at the same time. I want to be right there, right now and taste and buy everything you picture! Thank you so much for the beauty you bring into my life through Paris Breakfasts!!!

  11. So happy to ride your coat tails to this beautiful place. I have bought issues of Cote Sud for decades (though they've gotten a little stylistically austere lately). There is nothing austere about your posts and for that I love them!
