This blog and the work displayed on it (recipes, photos and writing) is my past-time and creative outlet. I am an American who has lived in Europe for 11 years now. I now live and work in Paris and Lyon, traveling between both cities, which provides plenty of food inspiration! It’s obvious that I am passionate about writing, food and photography but beside that, my top ten loves are:
1. This used to say, “Tall men with large noses” now it’s, My wonderful husband, who just so happens to be tall and in possession of the most lovely nose.
2. My son…who now says I must refer to him as “my adult son”. Whatever.
3. Creme de marron
4. Vintage, 50s and 60s fashion
5. Southern buttermilk biscuits
6. King crab legs
7. Savoie
8. Black truffles
9. Other people’s babies (you can give them back)
10. Puppies – especially Cavalier King Charles Spaniels!

Stumbled upon your site and find it brilliant. Love your passion and creativity! Being a mom as well, I try to make my own creations or make finds even more brilliant than the original (if I need to). Am an American living in Europe as well. Looking forward to reading more. Cheers.
