There aren't many Cahors, Saint-Amour and Côtes-du-Rhône left, so it'll be pleasant to drink the "Touraine" rouge and think of our pleasant days spent in Mareuil with you, Guys :-) Thus, I'll keep the bordeaux "safe" so that they can get older :-) Bises MarieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-13380156538635298072009-07-15T04:55:27.130+02:002009-07-15T04:55:27.130+02:00The photo Walt posted on Facebook of the tomato/mo...The photo Walt posted on Facebook of the tomato/mozz/basil salad was beautiful!

She was placed with a family that had some kind of aristocrat/former royal connection... very "la-dee-da" folks. Well, it was the night of the 14 juillet celebration, and she asked if they could go in to town to the celebrations... these "royals" looked at her with great disdain and announced, very stiffly, "We do NOT celebrate le 14 juillet!" Whew... she said you could have cut the air with a knife!<br /><br />She went out anyway :)<br /><br />JudySeine Judeet (Judith)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07407353544376132484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-86472018370629767042009-07-14T13:25:21.716+02:002009-07-14T13:25:21.716+02:00Ken, the pictures of the coop bring back such nic...Ken, the pictures of the coop bring back such nice memories from our trip in May and the visit for the open house.

It's not even 6 in the morning, but I'm already thinking about drinking. Thanks for sharingPaulitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02611117766982930997noreply@blogger.com
