Cheers from Lyon!
I haven’t told anyone lately that I am a building floor lift nor that I sleep with dirty blankets, but I did tell someone that I lived in Paris in 1917. Not exactly correct, but who’s counting + or – 80 years. She looked at me like I was from another world.
I am starting to develop French habits here already, like going to Sunday outdoors farmer’s markets that are found every couple of blocks. Today I bought 4.5 pounds of peaches for 1.50 euros. No, I have no idea how I am going to eat that many peaches, but they were irresistible! Last weekend I bought more zucchini, eggplant, red peppers, tomatoes and onions than any one family can eat in one week, let alone just me …all for less than 5 euros. I’ve made ratatouille three times this week—Mom, please send recipes!!!!
A very small smpling of what I see every morning…and what has me running every night - oh! |
Finally I am catching upa to the technology world, and have improved communication lines – yeah! My computer and I have rented anAtlanta number – 404.496.5516 – If I am online I can answer, and if not you can leave a message (I am EST +6 hours). Call, have a chat in France, leave a message, all is brilliant! I’ll tell you about my baguette obsession and attempt to try all the bakeries in Lyon.
Gros bises!
