salut all....
thankyou for all your wonderful & witty comments....about france, home schooling, moves abroad, crumbling cool stone houses &....well...the photie of moi with the kiddos...
it really is lovely to be back writing again...although i have soo much to share with you that i am not sure where to start...
& then my thoughts start wandering to other magic places we've been with the kiddos in europe & i seem to go off on a mad tangent {in my mind} again...!
so....with a herbal tea in hand let me show you the boot of our people mover...
yep...the kiddos looove being surrounded by french goodies
they love them under their feet
they love them *squashed* under their knees & beside them on the seat
it makes them feel needed....
my little angels who helped me get all this *french stuff* back unharmed- bless them...
& they too, reaped many a french blessing, i can assure you on this driving holiday across the channel too!
have you ever had a *petal de rose* or *violette* icecream?
i hadn't either- not till i was a seriously grown up gal...welcome to my kids days in france!
on this french journey i also noticed {consistently} that i have a very happy *thrift & vintage shop-embracing* husband...
in australia he'd rather be swimming, surfing or kiddo beach hopping than vintage furniture shopping...
but the 15,000 miles we've roamed have brought out a *brocante* & history enthusiast that leaves the best at the door...
...i'm not saying that given the opportunity to hang at *la plague* with the kids, that this wouldn't take precedence each & every time...
...it's just with not much *surf* around these parts...he's discovered *other* qualities in himself...
he not only stops at brocantes in france...
pokey little shops of goodies in italy...
& the british version of the australian *red cross* shop whenever we pass- he actually drives outa his way for them....he sources them!
...so, as its the weekend..i thought i'd just share a little french brocante love with you
& go set up my new & seriously LOVED *apple mac pro*.....aaahhhhhh
& just one more time for my gorgeous hubby, who is now in ear shot & whom bought it for me......
aaaahhhhhhhhhh....
...i am gonna love me this apple....
