Today is February 2, the date upon which falls the Catholic holiday called La Chandeleur. It is traditional to make crêpes on Feb. 2, and that's what we will be doing at noon time.
Today is also the first anniversary of our late friend Charles-Henry's death. He was 99 years old and had lived in the U.S. since 1969. He also owned an apartment in Paris, which had belonged to his parents for many decades. I stayed there with him many times after Walt and I moved to France from California in 2003. He and I traveled all around northern France during those years.
